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 Firebird SE Dry Inset Stove has been recommended as suitable for use in smoke
control areas when burning dry wood, when fitted with a permanent stop to prevent
closure of the secondary air control beyond 32mm and when operated in accordance
with these instructions.
The appliance can also be used to burn authorised fuels such as Ancit, see section 5.1
for fuel acceptable authorised for use in the appliance.

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
