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

Some people are worried that wood-burning stoves will cause climate change however this isn't true. The combustion of wood produces energy that is carbon neutral. Throughout the lifetime of a tree, it absorbs carbon dioxide and when it is burnt, the carbon absorbed is released back into the atmosphere.

The wood is sourced locally, which reduces the amount of pollution produced during the transport process. It is also important to use high quality, seasoned hardwoods as these will have an extended and more consistent burn than softwoods.

A wood-burning stove equipped with a hybrid unit or catalytic converter could be the most efficient low carbon solution for heating. These units re-ignite the gasses and particulates from the initial combustion in a subsequent stage by mixing them with superheated air. The remaining gases and particulates are then pumped through a catalytic combustion unit for a final third combustion. This reduces emissions to levels well below the government standards.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves are made to burn fuel with the greatest efficiency that is achievable. This means that there are fewer dust emissions into the atmosphere when burning wood. The air management system of the stove controls the intake and exhaust of gases to ensure that the combustion process takes place in a safe and controlled environment. It also regulates the height of the flame to minimize emissions and increase heat output.

This means that your chimney and its surroundings will be cleaner than older stoves.

Air pollution from wood burning is also an important factor in poor air quality in urban areas.

The smoke that is emitted from poorly combusted wood contains fine particulate pollution as well as hazardous air pollutants, including carbon monoxide volatile organic compounds nitrogen oxides, benzene, formaldehyde, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These particles can get into the lung and other organs which can cause discomfort, damage and even death. Airborne dust can also contaminate the surfaces of your home and give an unpleasant sludge-like feel to rooms.
