The following information will help guide you on what to look for when buying a wood heater, and our below provide details of compliant products on the market in Australia. Wood Heater Regulations in Australia All solid-fuel heaters must comply with the Australian Standard AS/NZS 4013 for emissions. Since being introduced by industry representatives in 1992, these standards have changed the way wood heaters are tested so they’re better for the environment. It is illegal for anyone to sell wood heaters that do not comply with these standards. The current emission limit for all new wood heaters sold in Australia is 2.5 grams of particulate emissions per kilo of wood burnt. All certified wood heaters must have an efficiency requirement of 55%.

In comparison, non-certified wood heaters emit around 12 grams of particles per kilo of wood burnt and open fires emit roughly 17 grams per kilo. It is best to choose a certified wood heater with a low emission level and high efficiency rating.

The lower the emission level, the less carbon your wood heater emits into the atmosphere and the less impact it has on the environment. The higher the efficiency, the less wood is needed to generate heat to your home. To make sure your wood heater complies with Australian regulations, check that it has a compliance plate and a current certificate of compliance. Installing Your Wood Heater All wood heaters and related fittings must be installed in line with Australian Standard AS/NZS2918 and in accordance with the wood heater manufacturer’s instructions. To ensure your heater is installed properly, we recommend using a person who is qualified to do so. Before installing a certified wood heater in Australia, you should check if approval is required from your local council.
