What makes a Defra approved stove different to conventional multifuel stoves is the fact that they have secondary air vents that heat the air before it enters the firebox. The pre-heated air helps ensure that all the fuel is ignited and burned, leading to an efficient combustion process. It also reduces soot build in the chimney and keeps it from clogging. The Defra stoves come with internal baffles that help regulate the flames, and maintain an even heat distribution.
Using non-Defra approved stoves in areas with smoke control could result in heavy fines from the UK government's Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra).
