Environmental Impact

We all need to consider our use of natural resources and the effect we have on the environment. Wood, as a form of natural energy, is a sustainable and renewable fuel source for heat generation.

Our Maxiheat Wood Heaters are designed in Australia to burn hardwood and tested to the most stringent of environmental standards. The current joint Australian and New Zealand Standard 4013/4012 measure particulate emissions and efficiency, we are proud to say our heaters exceed the requirements of these standards.

Wood burning in a Maxiheat Wood Heater does not add to the greenhouse effect. If wood is left to naturally decay, consumed in a bush fire or burnt in a wood heater, it emits similar levels of CO2. Maxiheat manufacture slow combustion wood heaters using low emission technology to gain maximum heat output with minimum emission into the atmosphere.
