From January 2022 only EcoDesign stoves can be legally sold in the UK. Further information about the regulations can be found here:
Domestic stoves used to burn non-approved fuels (e.g. wood) in a Smoke Control Area will still have to be Defra Exempt as well as meet the EcoDesign regulations. Smoke Control Areas cover most urban and densely populated areas and have been declared by all Greater Manchester local authorities.
