Carbon monoxide, air pollutants that are toxic like formaldehyde and benzene, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are also present. Inhaling this kind of air pollution could cause irritation of the lungs, coughing, wheezing and asthma attacks and may even cause serious health issues such as cancer, heart disease, or premature death.

Some people are worried that wood-burning stoves will contribute to climate change, but this isn't necessarily true. Wood burning is a carbon neutral energy source. Throughout the lifetime of a tree it absorbs carbon dioxide and when it is burned, the absorbed carbon is released back into the atmosphere.

The wood is sourced locally, which reduces the amount pollution that is produced during the transport process. It is also essential to select high-quality well-seasoned hardwoods, as they will provide a longer and more even burn than softwoods.

These units ignite gasses and particles from the initial burning in a second phase by mixing them superheated air. The remaining gases and particulates are pumped through a catalytic combustion unit for a final and third combustion. This reduces emissions to levels well below the government standards.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel at the highest possible efficiency. This means that there are fewer particles emitted into the atmosphere when burning wood. The air management system of the stove regulates the intake and venting of gases to ensure that the combustion process takes place in a sealed and controlled environment. It also regulates flame height to maximize heat output and minimise emissions.

This means that your chimney and the surrounding area will be cleaner than older stoves.
