Check if your burner is compliant
Ultra-low emission burners (ULEBs) produce far less pollution than other types of burners, so they can be installed in any home in Canterbury, whether or not you’re in a Clean Air Zone. Energy Star-rated heat pumps are also a great, zero-emission option.
Over the next five years, more than 10,000 low-emission burners around Canterbury will become non-compliant. Visit the Solid Fuel Burner database to search for your address and check when your burner is due to expire. You can also update information about your burner on the database.
