Carbon monoxide, toxic air pollutants such as formaldehyde and benzene, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are also present. Inhaling air pollution can cause irritation of the lung and lead to asthma attacks wheezing, coughing, and irritation of the lungs. It could also cause cancer, heart disease or premature death.

Some people are concerned that wood-burning stoves will cause climate change however this isn't true. Wood burning is a carbon neutral energy source. The tree absorbs carbon dioxide over its life. When it is burned, the carbon is released into the atmosphere.

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 the standards set by the government.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves are engineered to burn fuel with the best efficiency possible. This results in a minimum amount of emissions of particles into the air when burning wood. The stove's air management system controls the intake and venting of gases, ensuring that the combustion process takes place in a closed, controlled atmosphere. It also regulates the flame's height to maximise the output of heat and reduce emissions.
