A wood burning stove costs about a third of the price of electric heating and approximately 13% less than gas central heating for the average household under the current price cap.
A modern stove will use less than a third of the amount of wood fuel compared to an open fire to give the same amount of heat.
Wood fuel is renewable and sustainable, and can be locally sourced, helping to further reduce the carbon intensity of home heating. For example the number of logs required to produce 4kW of heat over a 5 hour period is 16 for an open fire, but only 5 are needed for an Ecodesign stove!
Choosing a modern Ecodesign stove, such as a clearSkies certified model, is a highly efficient, cost effective, low carbon and low emission way to heat your home.
At Flexi Flue Direct all of our stoves are highly efficient and Defra Approved for use in Smokeless Zones. The Langley 5kW Multi Fuel Free Standing Stove also has a clearSkies 5 certification, which means it exceeds the latest Ecodesign standards.
Choosing a clearSkies certified appliance gives you the assurance that you are buying a legally compliant and environmentally sound stove or fireplace for your home, and one that is future proofed with even greater efficiency and lower emissions for you and your family to enjoy for many years to come.
