In January 2022, the law will change and non-approved stoves will not be permitted to be used unless equipped with a secondary and secondary system that reduces their productions of particulate, nitrogen oxides, carbon dioxide and organic gaseous substances.

Our Defra approved ranges are also equipped with a mechanism that stops you from closing the top air vent completely. This could lead to the fire to ignite and release smoke into your home. Instead, these stoves have an adjustable air flow that lets you open the top vent just a bit and still maintain the safety and efficiency of your fire.

Another benefit of buying a Defra approved stove is that it is able to be fitted with a 5 inch chimney liner. This is important because many building codes require a chimney to have a minimum of 5 inches diameter.
