Air Quality and Wood Smoke
Posted on
If you use a wood stove to heat your home, you can help maintain good air quality by burning small, hot fires and using clean, seasoned firewood.
Smoke from wood stoves and fireplaces is the most significant source of air pollution in the Comox Valley because of the Valley’s frequent temperature inversions and calm winds in winter when people are burning wood as their primary source of heat.
