According to scientists at @UniofOxford having a real open fire is linked to a longer life. However, we would argue that a modern clean-burning stove is even better 😉 - burn less wood, cleaner burning AND enjoy a longer life! telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/02/1… - ThreadSky

BlueSky moderation does not work.

Charnwood is posting lie after lie and breaking UK law with their wild and untrue environmental claims.

Bluesky should have banned them already.

Your stoves aren't clean burning and any such claims are fraud.

Yes the person with the open fire is getting all the benefit of the heat and looking at flames, and their neighbours are getting all the pollution.
The study shows that PM2.5, PM10 and NO2 all have a negative effect on mortality.
And they are part of the many emissions from wood burning.

This might be a first.... I think we agree on open fires Mike! That's why we prefer stoves - so much better. Just think, if Oxford scientists say that open fires make you live longer stoves must be even better!! Have a good evening!

I really try not to insult people personally and stick to the facts. But the language you are using here, and on the site formally known as twitter, is so patronising. I have to also say your ability to communicate is very poor.
I don't know if you are just ignorant, or lying on purpose.

No offence taken on our part. We want clean air and sustainability too - we just have different thoughts on the method. As you know we are always open to having you visit. We appreciate your passion.

"We want clean air and sustainability too"

What an insidious lie.

You want no such thing. You want to sell stoves and you don't care of the harm they cause. You don't care about the sickness and the deaths that your products cause.

I condemn you for your doublespeak and your lack of morality.

Think we will have to disagree here! We passionately believe that wood heating has many positive benefits and we are committed to developing products which enhance these benefits while minimising the downsides. Take a look at this: https://www.charnwood.com/news/out-of-sight-out-of-mind-what-were-overlooking-in-our-heating-choices-and-their-impacts-on-sustainability/

Your thoughts are not based on scientific facts.

If you actually really wanted clean air, you would not burn wood or sell death stoves.

You seem far too ignorant to take in that fact.

Please do take offence. You are causing misery to many people because of your attitude. It needs to stop.

If you are so passionate about wanting clean air, you can come to us.

I bet you won't tho.

We are not agreeing Hugh.
Nope stoves are not better. They still pollute.
They still emit more CO2 than oil and gas.
Open fires pollute as well, with SOME of the pollutants having higher emissions than stoves. But some emissions are lower. You always ignore that.
We need to #StopBurningStuff

But - even if we assume all you say is correct (which we can dispute another time) - Oxford scientists still say open fire use is associated with longer life🤔

Probably because, until the last few years and the "hygge" fad, most open fire users lived in stately homes and likely had access to top medical care. Like this typical open fire enthusiast. They didn't get the brunt of the pollution though, that was their neighbours!
