Inhaling air pollution can cause irritation of the lung and cause asthma attacks wheezing, coughing, and irritation of the lungs. It can also lead to heart disease, cancer or premature death.

Many are concerned that wood-burning stoves can contribute to climate change, but this isn't necessarily 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 burned, the carbon absorbed is released back into the atmosphere.

The wood is produced locally, which reduces the amount pollution that is released during transportation. It is essential to select hardwoods that have been seasoned and of top quality. They burn longer and more evenly than softwoods.

The remaining gasses and particulates are transferred to a catalytic unit for a final and third combustion. This reduces emissions to levels that are below government standards.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel at the highest possible efficiency. This results in the release of very small particles into air when burning wood. The air management system of the stove regulates the intake and ventilation of gases to ensure the combustion process occurs in a safe and controlled environment.

Smoke from poorly burned timber contains fine particulate pollutants and dangerous air pollutants like carbon monoxide, as well as other dangerous air pollutants, such as nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), benzene and formaldehyde.
