Ecodesign is a European initiative aimed at reducing emissions, which has also been implemented in the United Kingdom. Ecodesign regulations are applicable nationwide. Therefore, any new stove installation, regardless of location, must adhere to Ecodesign standards. This is represented by a label with ratings. Our ranges fall within bands A and A+
The Department for Environment, Farming and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) conducts assessments of stoves to evaluate their emissions and smoke output. A DEFRA exemption indicates that a stove has successfully undergone stringent testing and is approved for burning wood in designated smoke control zones.
The word “approved” is sometimes used, but this is informal and refers to the listings available on the DEFRA site.
Many parts of the UK are smoke control areas where:
In England you may have to pay a penalty of up to £300 if your chimney releases smoke in a smoke control area.
You can be fined up to £1,000 if you buy unauthorised fuel to use in an appliance that’s not approved by Defra.

You must only use the types of fuel that the manufacturer says can be used in the appliance.
