Consultation open on new Community Hub, Library & Civic Space location

Elma Turner Library and Civic House are near the end of their useful lives. If we don't act now, Nelson risks losing spaces our community depends on. This is not just a problem to fix. It is a chance to build something better. Help us understand which option works best for our community.

Approved Ultra-Low Emission Burners (ULEBs)

If you live in Airshed B2 (Stoke) or C (Nelson North), and are either building a new home or do not have an existing enclosed wood burner, you can apply for a building consent to install an ultra-low emission wood burner (ULEB).

ULEBs (Ultra-Low Emission Biomass burners) produce significantly fewer emissions compared to older burners. These ULEBs meet stringent environmental standards for particle emissions, making them a cleaner and more sustainable option for heating.

ULEBs are authorised to be installed under proposed rule AQr.26A of Nelson City Council’s Air Quality Plan.

NOTE: There is a limit to the amount of new ULEB that can be consented in Airshed B2 (999) and Airshed C (599), in order to manage the cumulative impact on air quality. Also, ULEBs are required to be installed within 12 months of a building consent being issued for the appliance.

Notes and conditions

Emissions = this must be no more than 38 milligrams per megajoule.

P.E.F. = Particulate Emission Factor. This requirement is measured differently for ultra-low emission burners. To qualify for this list emissions are measured under strict real-life operating conditions and must be no more than 0.5 grams of total suspended particulate per kilogram of fuel burned.

S.H.E. = Space Heating Efficiency. This is a measure of how much of the available energy in the fuel source is generated as heat, and must be 65% or greater.

IB = In-built

FS = Freestanding
