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

Some people are concerned that wood-burning stoves cause climate change however this isn't true. Burning wood produces energy that is carbon neutral. The wood absorbs carbon dioxide throughout its life. After burning carbon dioxide is released into the air.

These units re-ignite gases and particles released from the initial combustion in a second phase by mixing them superheated air. They then funnel the remaining gasses and particulates through a catalytic combustor to create a third and final combustion, reducing emissions to a level that is well below the government standards.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel at the highest possible efficiency. This results in minimal dust emissions into the atmosphere when burning wood.
