However, if they are not well maintained or using wood of poor quality the smoke generated by them is contaminated with fine particles (known as particulate pollution) that can cause irritation to the lungs and other organs. It also contains carbon monoxide and toxic air pollutants such as benzene, formaldehyde and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Inhaling this kind of air pollution can cause irritation of the lungs as well as wheezing, coughing, and asthma attacks. It can even cause serious health issues like cancer, heart disease or premature death.

Some people worry that using a wood burning stove could contribute to climate change, but this is not necessarily true. The combustion of wood produces energy that is carbon-neutral. In the course of the life of a tree it absorbs carbon dioxide, and when it is burnt, the absorbed carbon is released back into the atmosphere.

As the wood is sourced locally, it reduces the amount of pollution emitted in the process of transportation. It is also important to select top quality, seasoned hardwoods as these will have a longer and more even burn than softwoods.

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

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves are designed to burn fuel with the greatest efficiency that is achievable. This results in a minimum amount of particles emitted into the atmosphere when burning wood. The stove's air management system regulates the intake and venting of gases, ensuring that the combustion process is conducted in a controlled, sealed environment. It also regulates flame height to maximize heat output and minimize emissions.
