Modern wood stoves are EPA certified and do not produce the same amount of pollution as other types of stoves. Wood stoves are more efficient than fireplaces that just heat the room in which they are placed. Many brands offer a wide selection of heating stoves for competitive prices. Some are more energy efficient than others. The energy savings make a wood-burning stove more expensive, but it's well worth the price. Wood stoves can save you up to 80 percent in heating costs. They're a great alternative to other heating systems. Some models also include an air blower, which can increase the efficiency of the stove by about 30%. Depending on the type of stove you choose, you will need to buy a hearth pad, which is a fire/heat resistant pad that sits on top of the floor and extends out a few feet in all directions from the wood stove. This costs between $200 and $600, depending on the size of your stove. You will also need to install an outlet, which can cost up to $1,000. In addition, you will need smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, which will add to the overall cost of the installation. Most modern wood-burning stoves are constructed from plate steel. Plate steel is comprised of low- to midgrade carbon steel plates that have been welded together. Some are also constructed of cast iron which is a dated construction material that was used to construct some of the first wood stoves. These units are manufactured by a reputable company, the English Stove Works. They have been in business since 1976. These stoves are available in a range of sizes and models. Some of their smaller stoves can be used to warm garages or poles as well as other models are designed to heat homes as well as larger commercial structures.

To determine the ideal size for your home, Declan Kingsley-Walsh, managing director at Morso suggests calculating the area by measuring its dimensions and dividing it by 14. The effectiveness of your stove is contingent on combustion and heat transmission. Combustion efficiency is a measure of how much fuel is used to generate heat. Heating transfer efficiency is a measure of the amount of heat actually released throughout the home. It is possible to increase efficiency in a variety of ways including installing a blower or chimney liner. The latest stoves are designed to burn cleaner, emitting less pollutants and producing more warmth for your home. The stoves utilize a catalytic combustion system to ensure that the fire is burning at lower temperatures and for longer increasing efficiency while reducing particle emissions.

It can be able to heat 49,500 BTUs in an hour. A new report has shown that wood burning stoves are the biggest source of small particle pollution. They release between 38% and 17 percent of the total and road transport accounts for just 13 percent.

Wood-burning stoves are a major contributor to wintertime air pollution. Studies have shown that a single home wood stove can emit more than six times the amount of PM10 and PM2.5 as an HGV truck of modern day.
