They also burn an easy-to-find fuel, which is good for the environment. However, there are a few things to consider before purchasing an indoor wood-burning stove. These include the stove's emissions energy efficiency, as well as safety for your home. Energy Efficiency Wood stoves are becoming more efficient in energy use. Modern models boast efficiency ratings of between 70 and 80%, which means that they convert a significant amount of the energy in the fire into heat. This greatly reduces fuel costs and makes them a more eco-friendly alternative to fossil fuels. Burning wood is also considered carbon neutral because it does not increase carbon dioxide levels in the air. Wood can be harvested sustainably, by cutting down the trees needed. This prevents other trees from being cut down in a way that is unnecessary. Most modern wood stoves can reburn the exhaust gases to further reduce emissions. This is also referred to as secondary combustion. However, some older non-catalytic models don't include this feature and permit gasses that are not burned to escape from the chimney. This unburned gas could cause a buildup within the chimney, which can be harmful to your health. This is particularly the case for people suffering from respiratory illnesses such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and emphysema. Long-term exposure to wood smoking can lead to pulmonary fibrous disease. On the other hand, choosing a wood stove with secondary combustion will significantly reduce the negative effects. The catalytic combustor in these stoves allows combustion to occur at lower temperatures. This permits exhaust gases to be burned more efficiently and thoroughly. If you choose to buy a wood stove with secondary combustion, it's ideal to seek EPA certification
