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 offence to emit smoke from a chimney of a building, from a
furnace or from any fixed boiler if located in a designated smoke control area. It is also an offence 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).
The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has powers under the Act to
authorise smokeless fuels or exempt appliances for use in smoke control areas in England. In
Scotland and Wales this power rests with Ministers in the devolved administrations for those
countries. Separate legislation, the Clean Air (Northern Ireland) Order 1981, applies in Northern
Ireland. Therefore it is a requirement that fuels burnt or obtained for use in smoke control areas have
been "authorised" in Regulations and that appliances used to burn solid fuel in those areas (other
than "authorised" fuels) have been exempted by an Order made and signed by the Secretary of State
or Minister in the devolved administrations.
The Dean Stoves, Dartmoor W5 SE has been recommended as suitable for use in smoke control
areas when burning wood logs.
When using the Dartmoor W5 SE in a smoke control areas the Smoke control kit must be fitted to the
stove.

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
