WARNING NOTE:
Properly installed, operated and maintained this stove will not emit fumes into the dwelling. Occasional fumes
from de-ashing and re-fuelling may occur. However, persistent fume emission is potentially dangerous and must
not be tolerated. If fume emission does persist, then the following immediate action should be taken:-
a)
Open doors and windows to ventilate the room and then leave the premises.
b)
Let the fire go out.
c)
Check for flue or chimney blockage and clean if required.
d)
Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause of the fume emission has been identified and corrected.
If necessary seek expert advice.
The most common cause of fumes emission is flueway within the stove or chimney blockage. For your own safety
these must be kept clean at all times.
A CO detector must be fitted in the same room as this appliance to conform to UK requirements of installation.
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. Further information on the
requirements of the Clean Air Act can be found here :
http://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/
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 Ecco Stoves 678EC2 has been
recommended as suitable for use in smoke control areas when burning wood logs with a maximum moisture
content of 20%
