ECAN - Deadline 31st October consent for low emission woodburners
Am I the last to know? Anyway FYI if you didn't either!!
If you are having to replace your woodburner eg its over 15 years.. you still need consent.
"...If you get your building consent lodged before 31 October 2017, you will be able to choose between a low emission wood burner and an ultra-low emission wood burner. ..."
"..... If you miss this deadline you can only install an ultra-low emission wood burner". *The ultra low are more expensive. And you have the consent fee.

Large blaze in central Christchurch
A large blaze broke out in a commercial building in the central city early Thursday morning.
What you need to know:
- Residents in parts of Christchurch are now being warned to stay indoors and keep windows shut.
- Thick smoke billowed through the sky after the blaze broke out in Sydenham.
- Dozens of firefighters were tackling the fire, which is in a building just off Colombo St housing a number of companies including Phoenix Recycling and vehicle certification company Auto Inspection Services.
- The fire is understood to have mainly affected the eastern part of the building, housing Auto Inspection Services. Its owner said he believed the fire had started in the adjacent recycling centre and had spread to his firm’s part of the building.
- Fire and Emergency New Zealand incident controller Dave Key said the fire was believed to have started in a pile of rubbish, and that the main damage from the blaze was to the building itself. The blaze was contained shortly after 8am, but fire crews would be at the scene for the rest of the day, he said.
