Burn cleanly this winter
Open fires, inefficient wood burners and poor wood burning practices are responsible for Blenheim’s winter air pollution.
Council encourages the use of heat pumps and modern, ultra-low emission burners that emit less smoke than older, more polluting burners. If you still have an open fire you’re encouraged to install a heat pump or new wood burner.
Open fires are no longer permitted in new house builds in town. If you have a wood burner it’s important to burn only dry, seasoned wood.
Don’t burn treated or painted construction timber, which produces toxic gases. For more information visit: https://www.marlborough.govt.nz/environment/air-quality
