It is often printed or engraved onto the stove itself, although there are occasions when you'll see the words on specifications sheets. You can also find several models that are DEFRA approved and DEFRA exempt, meaning they can be used for defra approved clean burning stoves both solid and wood fuels.

Usually, this is accomplished through using specially designed baffles in the stove which redirect airflow and prevent it from exiting the stove.

The top DEFRA approved stoves will have what is called"clean burn" features which allows the combustion of combustibles that have been partially burned such as ash and soot and allows them to be discharged out of the chimney, rather than into the room. This prevents combustibles with part-burns from re-entering the stove and causing a build-up which would ultimately cause black smoke.
