Defra Approved Back Boiler Stoves

There are a myriad of things to consider when choosing the right stove. From the alluring appeal of dual functionality to the practical aspects of installation, compliance and safety.

DEFRA approved back boiler stoves provide an excellent solution to these problems. This is due to the fact that they use the smallest amount of combustion air, which means the smoke is very low.

Clean Burn Technology

If you're looking for a clean burning stove with a large firebox that has the ability to heat your home and supply hot water to radiators, then a defra exempt stoves-approved back boiler stove could be the one you're after. These stoves are equipped with an integrated steel boiler capable of heating central heating systems while the fire is burning inside the stove. This makes it an efficient method to utilize wood burners.

Most of our defra-approved back boiler stoves have a pre heated, airwashing system to keep the glass doors clear of ash and soot. They also have a secondary combustion system that works by reburning any unburnt particulates created during the initial combustion. This keeps the flue gases clean which results in an efficient combustion process and lower fuel costs, which can save you money on your energy bills.

Certain of our stoves have been independently tested and approved as Defra SE (Smoke Exempt). They do this by having an adjustment on the top air vent that stops the vent from closing completely, that would shut off the oxygen supply to the fire - this causes it to smolder instead of burning cleanly resulting in more pollutants being released into the atmosphere.

Another important aspect is the moisture content of your fuel. This could be a major contributor to the amount of smoke released by an electric stove. We recommend burning only seasoned, dried wood with a minimum moisture content of 20 percent to ensure that your stove burns as efficiently and cleanly as it can. The majority of our approved Defra stoves come with a built-in moisture sensor which will adjust the burning rate when burning wet wood.

Some manufacturers have gone a step further to improve efficiency by adding a secondary clean burn system. This is controlled by a chrome lever located on the bottom of the stove. It opens and closes an air vent that draws the air over the fire, reburning smoke that was created by the initial burning process. This makes our Defra SE approved stoves even more efficient, so you could save even more on your energy costs.

Easy to Clean

A defra-approved back boiler lets you run both your central heating and hotwater from the same system. This can be accomplished by running a loop through the other taps on the back boiler (there are usually 2) to the hot water tank, and then using thermosyphoning in order to get the warmth into the home. This will ensure that your boiler never runs out of hot water as it is supplied by the tank.

Clean your stove regularly to ensure its performance is at its best. First, ensure that the stove is cool. Then, wipe down the main body and the door of the stove with a clean, dry cloth. We recommend using a microfiber towel, as they are less rough.

After you have cleaned the stove's interior it is recommended to clean the glass. Glass cleaners are readily available at most hardware stores and will help remove stubborn stains and marks. Glass cleaner should be used sparingly because too much could harm glass surfaces.

Over time the seals that cover the glass and doors of your stove can begin to deteriorate. This can lead to gaps which can leak heat, so it is important to replace these seals once each year. Depending on the model you choose it is possible to do this quickly and easily with stove rope which is available at many hardware stores.

If you have an Eco Design 2022-compliant back boiler that is installed on an approved defra stove the combustion process will be much more efficient than traditional wood-burning stoves. The latest technologies have made it possible to decrease the amount of combustibles released into the air. Stoves that are compliant are more environment sustainable and also more affordable to operate.

Another thing to keep in mind with a back boiler stove is that it will always be a little higher in cost than a typical multi fuel stove, as it produces more hot water than a normal multifuel stove. It's still a cheap way to heat your house and is able to be used for central heating as well as hot-water.

Easy to Install

Boiler stoves can be utilized to provide heat to the area and hot water to your central heating system, which makes them a fashionable work horse that can be an efficient and economical option. A wood burner with back boiler is different from other multi-fuel stoves, which must be connected to gas boilers. It can connect directly to the hot water and central heating of your home, removing the necessity for a second heating system.

A wood-burning stove with back boiler could be used to run your heating system entirely using renewable energy sources, making them a more environmentally conscious choice over other stoves. Additionally, since they burn wood and pellets they produce less carbon dioxide than gas or oil heating systems, which makes them an excellent option for those who are concerned about the impact their energy use has on global warming.

Many people are confused about how a wood burning stove that has a back boiler operates installing one is relatively simple. The key is to ensure that the stove is properly installed and linked to your heating system. Therefore, it's best to have this carried out by a qualified heating engineer. They can verify that the stove is installed correctly and connected to appropriate systems. They can also make sure that all safety devices are in place.

DEFRA approved wood burning stoves Approved stoves, or Defra Exempt Stoves, as they are often referred to and have passed the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) standards for smoke emission levels. They are allowed to be used in Smoke Control Areas and have been tested and modified to provide a clean burning which can be used with both wood and smokeless fuels.

DEFRA approved stoves like the Defra Exempt Dunsley Yorkshire or our best-selling Hi-Flame Aidan can provide a very efficient combustion process with minimal harmful emissions. They have been tested according to the new Eco-Design regulations, which imposes limits on the amount particulate matter (PM) and CO2 NOx, and organic gases a stove releases in normal operation.

Smoke Control Areas Suitable

Smoke Control Areas are in place in most UK cities and towns. Burning wood on older stoves or open fireplaces can result in a fine if the smoke is considered to be an issue. If you choose the right appliance for your home, back boilers that are Defra-approved stoves are not subject to these restrictions.

Wood burners that are exempt from Defra are built with Clean Burn technology, which ensures that the fuel is burned efficiently and produces minimal smoke. You can still enjoy a beautiful fireplace if you live in a smoke-free zone, however logs must be limited to mineral fuels that are smoke-free.

To comply with Defra requirements, these stoves feature airtight chambers for precisely controlled airflow. They typically employ triple airflow systems to ensure that combustion byproducts are able to be burned before they escape the chimney. This helps to reduce nuisance smoke and reduces the accumulation of soot that can block the flue and decrease gas efficiency.

It is crucial to buy a Defra-approved, Defra-certified stove from a reputable local retailer who can make sure that the correct size stove is selected for your space to provide maximum heating efficiency and ensure it is installed correctly by a HETAS-registered installer. They can also help you select the most suitable chimney liner for secure installation and offer advice on whether your home needs additional ventilation.

Modern DEFRA approved back boiler stoves are a world away from old open fires and traditional wood burners, and you can expect at least 75% heat efficiency that will not only save you money but also reduces the environmental impact. DEFRA approved wood burning stoves approved back boiler stoves can be used in smoke controlled areas and require at least 6mm stainless steel twin-wall flexible chimney liner. This is cheaper than the larger 12mm liners required for Ecodesign stoves.

If you are in any doubt about whether your property is located in a smoke control zone, contact your local council, who will be able to give you the most current information. The majority of reputable stove manufacturers have a DEFRA approved eco design stoves-exempt classification in their range to allow you to identify these appliances.
