The Australian Home Heating Association Inc (AHHA) is the peak industry body representing over 250 manufacturers, retailers, installers, maintenance companies and the firewood sector of the home heating industry which employs over 10,000 Australians nationwide.


The Association's charter is to provide a forum for people and organizations who share a common interest in the optimum development and self regulation of the industry relevant to solid fuel and wood heating appliances, including, without limitation, gas log fires, electric log effect simulated wood heaters and associated accessory products to express and foster that interest in joining the Association. The AHHA co-ordinates policy formulation, development and implementation relevant to the home heating industry and consistent with the legal, technical and environmental requirements of each State and Territory in Australia.

We promote the interest and image of those involved in the home heating industry and ensure that the industry is responsible to consumer and community attitudes while retaining the maximum possible level of self-regulation.

After years of dormancy, the Australian home heating industry started to florish in the early 1980s.
The development of efficient, convenient and attractive models of wood heaters through the 1980s meant that we now have a situation where around 1,200,000 Australian households (about 17% of all households) choose to use firewood as their main source of heating.
