Stove
 | This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: Disorganised. History contains sections on cast iron, gas, electricity and induction. Types includes sections on gas and electricity. Then there is separate section on Material. There are separate sections on Efficiency, Airtightness, and Emission regulation -- these should be merged. We also have articles on Multi-fuel stove and Wood-burning stove; need to consider whether these are the best cleavages for separate articles. (October 2024) |

A stove or range is a device that generates heat inside or on top of the device, for -local heating or cooking. Stoves can be powered with many fuels, such as natural gas, electricity, gasoline, wood, and coal.
Due to concerns about air pollution, efforts have been made to improve stove design.[1] Pellet stoves are a type of clean-burning stove. Air-tight stoves are another type that burn the wood more completely and therefore, reduce the amount of the combustion by-products. Another method of reducing air pollution is through the addition of a device to clean the exhaust gas, for example, a filter or afterburner.[2]
Research and development on safer and less emission releasing stoves is continuously evolving.[3]
