1.2 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.

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 ECB5FPLUS SC, ECB7PLUS SC, I400/I400T FSCE, I500 SCE, I600 SCE
and I750 SCE have been recommended as suitable for use in smoke control
areas when burning wood.
2 Advice on fuel types
2.1 Wood
As a natural and renewable fuel, wood is the first choice for burning,
however burning wood requires a little effort and planning.
