June 27, 2011 - A Shropshire-based company specialising in wood burning stoves has scored another first by securing DEFRA approval for two of its class-leading products.Broseley Fires believes that its Thermo Suprema boiler is the first of its kind to meet regulations allowing wood burning in smoke control zones.
The firm’s managing director, John Reeves, explained: “The increasing cost of fossil fuels such as oil and gas, together with a greater awareness of environmental issues, has led to an increase in demand for wood burning cookers, stoves and boilers.
“To meet this demand manufacturers have been striving to bring new products to the market that meet DEFRA regulations aimed at preventing air pollution. However, until now, the complexities of combining a wood fuelled cooker and boiler that meets with DEFRA approval has eluded them.
John went on to explain that Broseley has managed to stay one step ahead of the competition thanks to its acclaimed Suprema range which was recently approved by DEFRA for installation in areas designated as smoke control zones.
“We understand the Thermo Suprema is the very first DEFRA approved cooker boiler in the UK and the fact that it also incorporates our Safety Cold Water System (SCWS) means that it can be installed on an existing sealed system,” he continued.
“As a result it is easier to install and can work seamlessly with other energy efficient heating systems such as solar panels.”
The latest DEFRA approval for Suprema sparked double celebrations at the firm’s Shrewsbury headquarters, following similar recognition for its range of Italy cookers.
Like Suprema, the Italy cookers benefit from all the eco-features you would expect from a market leader in wood burning technology but in a contemporary style.
John added: “Now we can offer an unrivalled selection of wood burning boilers, cookers and cooker boilers for people who want to improve their home and developers looking to add value to properties by incorporating the very latest eco-technology.”
