Clean Burn Technology

Clean burn technology is used in log burners that have been defra-approved to reduce the amount and type of particles and smoke that are released. This has been proven to significantly reduce the negative health effects of poor air quality in urban areas, specifically when a traditional wood-burning stove or fireplace is being used. The city of Bergen, for example realized the importance of implementing effective measures to improve the quality of their air and, as a result, old non-cleanburn stoves are now illegal in the city. The program to trade in stoves was a great success. Bergen ranked fifth among 320 European cities in 2021 when it came to its air quality.

To accomplish this, stoves that are Defra-approved have been designed to ensure that the fire gets enough oxygen to ignite and burn fuel. This is achieved with a secondary air feed or tertiary intake that allows additional combustion air into the appliance in addition to the primary or main air intake. Typically, a secondary feed is located on the back of the stove underneath or within the fire box of the stove and a tertiary air intake is situated in the middle.
