The committee has recently published a series of EN standards for residential combustion of solid fuel. Specific minimum energy efficiency limits are set for these of installations, as well as emission limits for CO. CO limits have tended to be defined (as opposed to other pollutants) in these standards due to health and safety concerns over carbon monoxide poisoning. In terms of emission limits, they are considered to provide a reasonable proxy of emissions from other pollutants. These limit values apply to all CEN countries.
