Initiated by the industry through the Stove Industry Alliance (SIA), clearSkies is designed to drive the development of cleaner and more efficient appliances and is open to all manufacturers of solid fuel stoves and fireplaces.
Stoves and fireplaces with the clearSkies certification produce significantly lower levels of emissions compared to open fires and older stoves. Independent tests have shown a clearSkies stove produces up to 90% less emissions than an open fire and 80% less emissions than the average 10-year-old stove.
If a stove or fireplace is clearSkies certified you can be assured that it meets ALL the criteria needed to be legally installed and meets the latest environmental standards. You don’t need to look for any other certification. clearSkies demonstrates the industry’s commitment to improving air quality by developing low carbon heating solutions, and by choosing a clearSkies certified product you too are doing your bit to lower emissions, improve air quality and make a change for a better world.

clearSkies certified appliances meet, and in many cases exceed, the minimum performance level for Ecodesign Regulations – the minimum legal requirement for an appliance manufactured for sale in the UK from 1st January 2022.
Ecodesign Regulations cover specific minimum criteria that an appliance must achieve under set test conditions, which are independently verified. These criteria are the minimum energy efficiency of the appliance and the maximum levels of emissions permitted of:
-
CO – Carbon Dioxide
-
PM – Particulate Matter
-
OGC – Organic Gaseous Compounds
-
NOx - Nitrogen Oxide
All appliances certified under clearSkies will appear in the product listing on the clearSkies website. This can be found at: www.clearskiesmark.org/product-search/ or Speak to a Sweep! who will be happy to advise you
