SG model achieve up to 81% efficiency and therefore emits more heat with less wood than many other wood-burning stoves on the market. Some of the benefits of Schiedel stoves:
With a innovative construction and the possibility of combustion air straight to the top through the Schiedel Permeter flue system, the SG fits perfectly in new and existing homes with lower heating needs. With a high efficiency rating, the lowest possible emissions, the SG wood-burning stoves are future proof and will last for many years to come.
Despite the headlines, stoves are not banned and won’t be.
The headlines refer to older stoves which are inefficient and are a number of years old. Modern Ecodesign stoves are highly efficient, when using suitable low moisture content wood logs.
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.
Exempt appliances that can burn unauthorised fuels include our stove ranges:
Unauthorised fuels, such as wood, can only be burned in exempt appliances such as some boilers, cookers and stoves.
You must only use the types of fuel that the manufacturer says can be used in the appliance.

Contact your local council to find out if you live in a smoke control area. The environmental services department will be able to help you.
What you can burn in smoke control areas
