GOOD TO KNOW
So far, there is no legislation or standard that mentions
the regulatory threshold of airtightness to meet for wood
burning appliances. Nevertheless, SUPRA devices are
developed to achieve a level of performance suitable for
this type of installation.
AIRTIGHT APPLIANCES
SUPRA SA has developed a range of devices that meet the
performance requirements for houses with a high level of
insulation. These units are airtight and have an external air
intake. They are available in outputs adapted to these new
well insulated buildings.
FLAMME VERTE LABEL
Since 1 January 2010, a new labeling was introduced by the ‘’Flamme Verte’’ (French
standard) with the support of ADEME – French Environment & Energy Agency - in order
to identify the most advanced equipment for the environment.
A number of stars - from 1 to 5 - is now associated with each device. The criteria are
energy efficiency, emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) and dust emissions for 5 stars
devices.
From 1 January 2012, only devices classified 4 and 5 stars can be labeled ‘’Flamme Verte’’.
The label guarantees devices that help save energy, reduce emissions of greenhouse
gases and protect our natural environment. The entire range of SUPRA stoves and fire-
boxes has 4 or 5 stars.
