Jindara and the environment

When you choose wood to heat your home you are actually helping our environment.

We are all aware of Greenhouse Gases and the effects they have on the ozone layer. The use of fossil fuels for home heating, such as coal (used in the production of the majority of Australia's electricity) and gas creates millions of tones of Caron Dioxide into the atmosphere every year. Growing trees absorbs this carbon dioxide thereby reducing the effects on the ozone layer. Tree plantations, State and National forests grow many more trees each year than those used for home heating.

Jindara wood heaters are active members of the Australian Home Heating Association (AHHA) and through theAHHA are sponsors of Landcare Australia.
Landcare is recodnised as one of Australia's leading environmental groups and supports the use of wood burning for home heating when used in certified wood heaters.

All Jindara wood heaters are tested and approved to the Australian Standart 4013. This Standard requires heaters meet tough efficiency and emission levels. When you choose a Jindara wood heater you can be sure it is one of the most advanced wood heating appliances available Australia. When used orrectly a heater tested and approved to AS-4013 reduces emissions by up to 80% compared to an open brick fireplace. This figure is recognised by EPA authorities throughout Australia.

As well as all this, wood remains Australia's only renewable and sustainable fuel source.

By purchasing a Jindara wood heater you can be sure a portion of the sale price goes directly to Landcare Australia projects.
