Installation
In addition to these instructions the requirements of
BS 8303 and BS EN 15287 must be fulfilled. Local
Authority Bylaws and Building Regulations regarding
the installation of Solid Fuel burning appliances,
flues and chimneys must also be taken into account.
The installation is a notifiable building work as
defined in the Building Regulations and that it is a
legal requirement under England and Wales Building
Regulations that the installation is either carried out
under Local Authority Building Control approval or
is installed by a competent person registered with a
Government approved Competent Persons Scheme.
Therefore this appliance and installation must
comply with the following regulations:
British Standards BS 8303. BS EN 15287-1:2010
Building Regulation Approved Document J for
England and Wales
Building Regulations Part F for Scotland
Building Regulations/1997 Technical Guidance
Approved

This appliance must be fitted by an approved
installer or inspected and signed off by a Building
Control Officer.
This appliance must be fitted on a top hat
connecter and the stove must be removable
without affecting the lining of the chimney.
Hearths distances
Clock freestanding stoves do not require a
constructional hearth beneath them as they do
not cause the floor temperature to exceed 100
degrees C. Hearths must be generally level. In all
instances a non-combustible superimposed hearth
extending fully underneath the stove and forming
an apron of at least 300mm at the front of the stove
and 150mm on either side must be provided. The
superimposed hearth must not be less than 12mm
thick and must have a clearly defined edge (change
of level) to discourage placing of any combustible
materials on or partially over it.
The appliance shall be installed on a floor with
adequate load-bearing capacity. If the existing
construction does not meet this requirement,
suitable measures (e.g. load distributing plate)
should be provided to achieve it.

CO Alarms
Your installer should have fitted a CO alarm in the
same room as the appliance. If the alarm sounds
unexpectedly, follow the instructions given under
"Warning Note" below.
WARNING If the CO Alarm sounds unexpectedly:-
1. Leave the premises immediately and contact
installer
2. Let the fire go out.
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
Smoke Control must be set for use in a smoke
control area by the HETAS installer.
Clock Woodburners range of Wood Burning
and Multi-Fuel stoves have been recommended
as suitable for use in smoke control areas when
burning HETAS approved wood logs and smokeless
fuel only. Further information on the requirements
of the Clean Air Act can be found here: http://
smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/appliances.php
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.
