Ecodesign Ready Stoves
Look out for appliances carrying the SIA Ecodesign Ready Label.
Ecodesign Ready Stoves have been welcomed by Defra in its Clean Air Strategy as a recommended way of significantly reducing emissions. Defra has included the Ecodesign Ready Scheme in its plans to improve air quality.
Independent tests carried out for the SIA have shown Ecodesign Ready Stoves reduce emissions by 90% compared to an open fire and by 80% compared with an average 10-year-old stove. The launch of Ecodesign Ready stoves, in Westminster, was sponsored by Neil Parish, Chairman of the Select Committee on the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
