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.

Further information on the requirements of the Clean Air Act can be found here:

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 Carron Darwin SE 5KW Inset Stove has been recommended as suitable for use in smoke control areas when
burning wood.

An air control has been supplied to provide a mechanical stop to prevent closure beyond 5mm open.

. Installation

We recommend that two people perform the assembly and installation procedure.

2.1 Unpacking the Stove

After removing the outer packaging, unbolt the combustion chamber from the wooden pallet and place it gently on its
back. The cardboard packaging can be placed underneath to prevent marking. Remove the leg pack from the stove and
bolt each leg securely to the underside of the base on the combustion chamber, using the bolts provided (found inside
the stove).

2.2 Installing this Stove

The stove and chimney installations MUST comply with all current National and Local Building Regulations; your
approved dealer or your local building control officer can advise regarding this. Ultimately, it is you and your installer
who is responsible that the installation complies.

2.3 Pre-installation

After removing the stove from the packaging, open the fire door and remove the loose packing. Prior to installation
ensure all the internal components of the stove are removed to gain access to fixings and to make it lighter for
installation.

Remove the refractory fire bricks, these bricks are loose and just need to be lifted clear of the grate support plate before
they can be removed.

To remove the loose baffle, lift the front edge until it hits the top and then slide it forward. Then drop the rear edge and
the baffle will slide down. To remove the fixed baffle, loosen the two screws and slide it forwards, it will then drop down.

Next, remove the grate by pushing it from underneath, the riddling bar is not fixed to the grate. This will allow access to
four M6 fixings which will attach the stove to the outer casing. Remove the 4 fixings, allowing the insert stove to be
removed from the external casing.

2.4 Chimney

THIS PRODUCT IS SUITABLE FOR CHIMNEY INSTALLATION ONLY.

The stove is a radiant room heater and must be connected to a chimney of the proper size and type. The chimney must
have a cross sectional area of at least 124cm2 or a diameter of at least 125mm. Never connect to a smaller size
chimney. Do not connect to a chimney serving another appliance. Minimum chimney height 4.5 meters from floor on
which stove is installed.

It is recommended that a flue liner of diameter 125mm be used to line the chimney, the liner should be approved for use
with solid fuel. (See Fig. 1).

It is permitted to connect using a closure plate and a connection piece from the stove to the closure plate (See Fig. 2),
provided that the chimney is of sound construction with no leaks or cracks, a clay flue liner has been used that can
withstand up to 1000°C, the clay liner has a diameter no greater than 200mm.

ALL FLUE INSTALLATIONS ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CUSTOMER.

The stove must be connected to a chimney with a minimum continuous draught of 12 Pascal’s (.05” WG). Poor draught
c

onditions will result in poor performance.

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1: Prepare the fireplace area with fireback or milner brick removal. Ensure the opening is suitable for fitting of the
insert stove opening required, i.e. remove fire surround trim if fitted. See Fig 3

Step 2: Ensure the floor area is level with the hearth, this
area needs to be level as the insert fire is screw fixed to the
floor.

Step 3: Lay the external casing into the opening and position
so that the front edge protrudes 20mm past the front edge of
the opening.

Step 4: Mark the drill location and drill the holes using a

4.5mm drill bit. Fix the casing to the floor using the self
tapping screws provided.

Step 5: Lift the stove into the external casing. Remove all internal parts as per pre-assembly instructions prior to lifting
it. The stove can be lifted into the casing approximately 125mm first and then it can be pushed into the final position
while taking care to lift the front edge to preserve the hearth.

Step 6: Drop the flexi flue liner down through the chimney and into the stove.

Step 7: Lay the sealing gasket on to the flue spigot, and then fit the flue spigot to the end of the flexi flue liner using the
2 grub screws provided.

Step 8: Then using the M6 screws secure the stove to the convection chamber. Push the insert stove against the
fireplace before fully tightening these bolts.

Step 9: Push the flexi liner back up through the flue outlet and fix the flue spigot into position using the M6 nuts
provided.

Step 10: Complete the installation of the flexi line at the top of the chimney in accordance with the manufacturers
instructions.
