1 : 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).
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 Wales and Northern Ireland these are authorised by regulations made by Welsh Ministers and
by the Department of the Environment respectively.

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.
As the customary practice in the UK requires that an exempt appliance has to be constructed or
adapted in such manner that it is impractical to operate it in a way whereby significant smoke will
be emitted,
