4.7 Requirement for UK -
Smoke control Areas
The Clean Air Act
"The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas"
Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the
whole or part of the district of the authority to be a smoke
control area. It is an off ence to emit smoke from a chimney of
a building, from a furnace or from any fi xed boiler if located in a
designated smoke control area. It is also an off ence to acquire
an "unauthorised fuel" for use within a smoke control area
unless it is used in an "exempt" appliance ("exempted" from
the controls which generally apply in the smoke control area).
In England appliances are exempted by publication on a list
by the Secretary of State in accordance with changes made to
sections 20 and 21 of the Clean Air Act 1993 by section 15 of
the Deregulation Act 2015. Similarly in Scotland appliances are
exempted by publication on a list by Scottish Ministers under
section 50 of the Regulatory Reform (Scotland) Act 2014.
In Northern Ireland appliances are exempted by publication
on a list by the Department of Agriculture, Environment and
Rural Aff airs under Section 16 of the Environmental Better
regulation Act (Northern Ireland) 2016.
In Wales appliances are exempted by regulations made by
Welsh Ministers.

Your local authority is responsible for implementing the Clean
Air Act 1993 including designation and supervision of smoke
control areas and you can contact them for details of Clean Air
Act requirements.
The Jøtul F 200 & Jotul F 205 have been recommended as
suitable for use in smoke control areas when burning wood
logs. The Jøtul F 200 & Jøtul F 205 must be fi tted with a
permanent stop to prevent closure of the secondary air control
as shown below. In a smoke control area the air control
stop must be fi tted. If this is removed, then the stove will no
longer be exempt and therefore no longer suitable for burning
unauthorised fuels in a smoke control area.

Odours when using the fi replace for the fi rst time
When the fi replace is used for the fi rst time, it may emit an
irritating gas which may smell slightly. This happens because
the paint dries.The gas is not toxic but the room should be
thoroughly ventilated. Let the fi re burn with a high draught
until all traces of the gas have disappeared and no smoke or
odours can be detected.
