Eco-friendly stoves are designed to emit less carbon dioxide, while making use of fuel efficiently, and using sustainable materials. They typically burn wood or a combination of authorised fuels, and are designed with ecological considerations in the back of their minds. A selection of eco-friendly log burning and multi fuel stoves are available, ranging from contemporary to traditional models.

The most important factor in making sure that your stove is eco-friendly is to ensure that the fuel used is properly seasoned or kiln dried. This reduces the moisture content of the wood and enables it to burn more efficiently. It is also a great idea to buy only wood from sustainable forests. Look for the Woodsure 'Ready to Burn' logo when buying wood to ensure that it has been dried at an appropriate temperature.

Most modern stoves are designed to meet strict EU EcoDesign standards. These standards require stove makers to create wood burning stoves that have energy efficiency and environmental protection in the back of their minds. Ecodesign stoves should take into account emissions, resource efficiency, and the reduction of waste. These are among the cleanest and eco-friendly stoves available.

The design of a stove that is Defra-approved is also distinct. The majority of our models have an internal mechanism that allows for the continuous flow of air into the fire, even when the vents for air are closed.

The information must include a stove's efficiency rating as well as emissions, along with its size and type.

It's important to keep in mind that, as with Ecodesign the clearSkies regulations are minimum standards. Manufacturers are able to go over and beyond these. ESSE has designed its latest stoves to be even more efficient and clean, producing less dust without compromising the performance or control.
