A Leading Supplier of Eco Design Stoves
Are they really that much better for homes in Hertfordshire?
The honest answer is yes, absolutely. Why? Because a modern eco stove has been designed to produce 80% less emissions than your average 10-year old stove, and a whopping 90% less than an open fire commonly used in cast iron combinations and firebaskets.
There is a misconception that stoves are slowly being phased out entirely, and this couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, the government included wood burning stoves in their latest Clean Air Strategy back in 2019, aiming to reduce the amount of harmful emissions that affect air quality by ensuring stove manufacturers improve the performance and efficiency of their stoves.
They introduced a new ‘Ecodesign Ready Label’, ensuring that only stoves that comply with the most recent emissions standards could be produced and sold to the public as of 2022. For a stove to earn its ‘eco’ label, it must adhere to the rigorous emissions criteria, with a significant reduction in the release of pollutants such as; particulate matter, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen oxides when compared to the older, traditional models. What does this mean for those that have an older stove? Depending on where you live, you may still be permitted to use your existing stove. However, for residents that live in smoke control areas in and around London, it is mandatory to use only an Eco or DEFRA approved wood-burning stove.
If you’re thinking of planning a home improvement project this year, it may be a good opportunity to replace your old stove or open fire with a new, eco design stove. Pop into our showroom to view our exciting range of roaring log burners, and speak to a member of our team for further advice.
