CHESNEYS
YOU MAY BE WONDERING whether you
should buy a wood burning stove. Whether it’s
a responsible choice to make.
You’ve probably seen mixed messages in the
media, with some commentators depicting
stoves as major air polluters. While wood
burning does produce emissions, so do
industries, transportation, and domestic sources
such as fire pits, bonfires, and open fires. The
key diference is that modern wood stoves are
designed and rigorously tested to remove most
harmful emissions.
At Chesneys our goal is to lead the way with
clean and efcient combustion technology, so
you can enjoy the warmth and well-being that
a stove provides, with a clear conscience.
SHOULD I BUY A WOOD
BURNING STOVE?
This is why we decided to forgo some sales and
eliminate multi fuel stoves from our range in 2022
so that we were not encouraging the burning of
fossil fuels.
Questions about the future for wood burning stoves
have been asked and there is a clear answer in the
government’s Environmental Improvement Plan,
published in early 2023, which states that it is “not
considering a ban on domestic burning in England
but that measures should be implemented to drive
a shift towards newer appliances which meet tough
emissions standards.”
We support this objective and are proud to be at
the forefront of the movement to make stoves as
clean as possible, so you can feel good about
buying one.
