The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas
SMOKE
EXEMPT
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 Tenbury
(TEN1MF) has been
recommended as
suitable for use in
smoke control areas
when burning wood.
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.
CO Alarms
It is required by building regulations that
whenever a new or replacement
wood/solid fuel or biomass appliance is
installed in a dwelling a carbon monoxide
alarm to BS EN 50292:2002 must be fitted
in the same room as the appliance.
The alarm should be installed according
to the alarm manufacturers instructions
and should not be considered a substitute
for the appliance being installed
incorrectly or regular maintenance of the
appliance or flue system.
Tenbury insert install manual 1015-3 03/12/2015 09:57 Page 4

Operating your stove
Using your appliance for the
first time
• To allow the appliance to bed in, and
fixing glues and paint to fully cure,
only fire the appliance using kindling
and just get hot for at least three fires.
• Before lighting the next small fire
please allow the appliance to return
back to room temperature.
• During these first small fires you may
experience a haze and unpleasant
smell as the paint cures, do not touch
the paint and keep the room well
ventilated.
Please note that during the first firing,
we recommend a small fire is lit and
that you slowly increase the
temperature to enable the various
parts to expand normally.
You may also experience fumes and a
haze being given off by the stove during
the first firing and possibly for the next
couple of firings as the paint cures. This
is normal but please ensure that the
room is well ventilated during this
period.
The appliance should not be operated in
mild weather with smokeless fuel. Under
Always ensure that the ash draw is fully located before operation of
the appliance
Tenbury insert install manual 1015-3 03/12/2015 09:57 Page 8

certain weather circumstances e.g. fog
the chimney will not draw sufficiently
and could cause asphyxiation. Either
await better weather conditions or burn
wood only.
In the rare event of a malfunction due to
overheating or a chimney fire, the air
slides should be shut down completely
and the fuel allowed to burn out. In the
event of a chimney fire, once the air
slides have been closed completely, dial
999 for assistance. If the appliance has
overheated, the appliance and flue will
need to be inspected for any damage
before it can be operated again.
Recommended Fuels
Wood: hardwood such as ash, oak and
beech which have been cut for at least 2
years and stored under shelter. The logs
should have a maximum moisture
content of 20%. Maximum log length
250mm, maximum width 125mm.
Smokeless Fuels: below 20%
Petroleum coke content such as
Anthracite, Phurnacite, Ancit suitable for
use with a closed heating appliance.
Prohibited Fuels
Green wood: i.e wood which is less
than 2 years old with a moisture content
of above 20%
Recovered wood: i.e pallets, railway
sleepers etc. These will have been
chemically treated and will pollute the
atmosphere and possibly overheat the
appliance.
Housecoal or Bituminous coal: these
fuels will soot up the airways of the
stove and possibly overheat the
appliance.
Petroleum Based Coke: over 20%
content - this will overheat the appliance
and possibly damage the unit.
Liquid fuels.
Always check with your dealer or directly with the manufacturer as using the
incorrect fuel may invalidate your guarantee and damage your appliance.
Instructions for use with wood
• Open the secondary air slider to the
left hand side of the door, and open
the primary air slider to the right hand
side of the door by fully pushing the
levers inwards.
• Lay firelighters or rolled up
newspapers on the grate and add a
small amount of kindling wood to the
top. Place 1 or 2 small logs on the
top.
• Light the newspaper or firelighters
using a long taper and push the door
closed but do not engage the locking
handle fully.
• When the fire is burning fiercely, after a
couple of minutes add more logs and
close the door.
• When the fire has become established,
close the primary air, to the right hand
side of the door, by pulling the lever
fully outwards.
• The burning rate can be altered by
moving the secondary air slider, to the
left hand side of the door - pull the
lever outwards to close down and
push the lever inwards to increase the

the logs are not placed higher than the
log guard allows.
Tenbury insert install manual 1015-3 03/12/2015 09:57 Page 9

Instructions for use with
smokeless fuel
• Open the secondary air slider to the
left hand side of the door, and open
the primary air slider to the right hand
side of the door by fully pushing the
levers inwards.
• Lay firelighters or rolled up
newspapers on the grate and add a
small amount of kindling wood to the
top. Place a small quantity of
smokeless fuel on top.
• Light the newspaper or firelighters
using a long taper and push the door
closed but do not engage the locking
handle fully.
• When the fire is burning fiercely, after a
couple of minutes add more
smokeless fuel and close the door.
• When the fire has become established,
close the secondary air by 50%, to the
left hand side of the door, by pulling
the lever outwards.
• The burning rate can be altered by
moving the primary air slide, to the
right hand side of the door - pull the
lever outwards to close down and
push the lever inwards to increase the
burn rate.
• Care should be taken to ensure that
the firebox is not overfilled with
smokeless fuel - it should be no higher
than the log guard.
Re-fueling
When refueling the stove always refuel
onto a bed of hot embers, fully open
the secondary and primary air controls
until the new fuel is well alight, before
adjusting the air controls for the desired
setting.
If there is insufficient burning material in
the firebed to light a new fuel charge,
excessive smoke emission can occur.
Refueling must be carried out onto a
sufficient quantity of glowing embers
and ash that the new fuel charge will
ignite in a reasonable period. If there are
too few embers in the fire bed, add
suitable kindling to prevent excessive
smoke.
Fuel overloading
Never overload the stove - it will work
very well with two medium sized logs.
The amount of fuel specified in this
manual should not be exceeded,
overloading can cause excess smoke.
Operation with door left open
Operation with the door open can cause
excess smoke and overfirring of the
appliance. The appliance must not be
operated with the appliance door left
open except as directed in the
instructions.
Never leave the stove unattended
until the new fuel is well alight.
Persistent fume emission is dangerous
and must be investigated.
If fume emission persists, open doors
and windows to ventilate the room and
let the fire die out. Have the chimney
inspected for blockages and clean if
required. Do not relight the fire until the
cause has been found. We recommend
that you seek professional advice.
This appliance has been designed to be
burned with the door closed at all times
other than when refueling.
It should not be operated as an open
fire.
Typical refueling intervals for wood is 1
hour and smokeless fuel is 2 hours.
Tenbury insert install manual 1015-3 03/12/2015 09:57 Page 10

Maintenance
Daily Maintenance
• The grate should be cleaned regularly
and the ash pan emptied daily.
Never allow the ash in the ashpan to
overfill allowing ash to be in contact
with the underside of the grate.
This will overheat the grate and cause
premature wear and distortion.
Periodic Maintenance
• The chimney should be swept at least
once a year together with the flue pipe
connection. Care should be taken to
ensure that there is not a build up of
soot on the baffle and in the airways of
the appliance.
• If the appliance has not been operated
for long periods, the flue should be
inspected and swept before use to
ensure there are no blockages within
the flue.
• The internal vermiculite panels of the
appliance should be checked regularly
for soundness. If any wear and tear is
found, we recommend these parts are
replaced immediately.
• Check the rope door seals are intact
and are not worn. These should be
replaced on an annual basis to ensure
the correct operation of this appliance.
• The glass can be cleaned using a soft
damp cloth and window cleaner or a
stove glass cleaner (available from
your local stockist)
Use only replacement parts
recommended by the manufacturer.
We recommend that the appliance is serviced annually by a competent
engineer to ensure it’s continued safe operation.

Troubleshooting
Fire difficult to • Green wood / wet wood Use hardwood logs with a maximum
start / goes out moisture content of 20%
• Logs are too large Use kindling and small logs to start the
fire and once established use split logs
• Not enough primary air Open air control
• Insufficient draft Check the flue is not obstructed
Fire burns too quickly • Too much draft Reduce the air control
• Excessive draft Install a draft stabiliser
Smokes on initial • Flue is cold Burn paper and kindling to increase
lighting heat in flue
Smokes while burning • Insufficient draught Check the flue is not obstructed
Low heat output • Poor quality wood Use seasoned Hardwood (this has a
Higher calorific value)
Problem Probable Cause Action Recommend
Commissioning Check List
