    Many people believe that living in a smoke controlled zone means they cannot use a wood burning fireplace. This isn't the case. The majority of towns and cities are in the smoke control zone, but that doesn't mean they can't use a wood burning stove. It's simply that they have to burn approved fuels in their stove (usually brquettes). The stove that is Defra-approved is a wood-burning stove that has been thoroughly tested to make sure that it meets certain standards regarding the emissions it produces when burning approved materials.

    The difference between a DEFRA-approved kitchen and one that isn't approved is usually quite small. With a kit supplied by the manufacturer, many modern stoves can be easily made DEFRA compliant in just a few minutes. This is because the Defra approved stove has to undergo very rigorous tests and has to be limited to the amount of smoke it can generate.

    To ensure that the restrictions are maintained the stove has to be able to limit its combustion air to ensure that it doesn't deprive itself of oxygen which can cause it to smolder. This is accomplished by a mechanism in the stove which opens a small amount of air into the firebox during the process of combustion, which is usually hidden within the stove and underneath the base of the fire box.

Look for the "EPA 2020 Certified Label" which means that the stove is in compliance with the emission limits currently in place.

    If you purchase an appliance that isn't EPA certified and you reside in a smoke control area, you will need to get it recertified before you can use it. It can be costly and time-consuming, but it is legally required. In addition, homeowners who sell their home with a wood stove that isn't certified could be subject to clean air tax credits and fines.

    Before the Clean Air Acts were brought in residential homes could burn any kind of fuel they liked which resulted in large amounts of smoke emissions as well as health problems. To stop this, Defra created Smoke Control Areas which meant that homes in residential areas couldn't emit any smoke from their multifuel stoves or wood burners unless the appliance was Defra certified to burn only fuels that were authorised, such as manufactured smokeless coals and anthracite.

    Defra approved stoves, also known as SE (Smoke Exempt) Stoves, have gone through rigorous testing to demonstrate that they can burn cleanly authorised fuels within a Smoke Control Zone. They achieve this by utilising the latest combustion technology which continually delivers a minimum amount of secondary air to the combustion chamber, so that even if the stove is being used with authorised fuels such as anthracite or manufactured smokeless coals, it will still be able to comply with the regulations of Defra for Smoke Control Areas.
