the UK Government has confirmed that under the proposed Future Homes Standard, wood burning stoves will continue to be permitted in new-build properties.
 
This important clarification, prompted by strong industry representation led by the Stove Industry Association (SIA), means that wood burning stoves will remain a part of the UK’s future housing landscape as a secondary source of low-carbon, sustainable heating.
