Flue and Chimney connection to your stove The outlet from the chimney should be above the roof of the building in accordance with the provisions of Building Regulations Approved Document J. If installation is into an existing chimney then it must be sound and have no cracks or other faults which might allow fumes into the house. Older properties, especially, may have chimney faults or the cross section may be too large i.e., more than 230 mm x 230 mm.
Flue and Chimney connection to your stove (continued) If it is found that there is excessive draught in the chimney then either an adjustable flue damper or alternately a draught stabiliser should be fitted. The adjustable flue damper should not close off the flue entirely but should in its closed position leave a minimum continuous opening free area of at least 20 % of the total cross sectional area of the flue or flue pipe. Adequate provision e.g.
Distance to Combustible materials Combustible materials should not be located where the heat dissipating through the walls of fireplaces or flues could ignite it. Therefore when installing the stove in the presence of combustible materials due account must be taken of the guidance on the separation of combustible material given in Building Regulations Approved Document J and also in these stove instructions.
Mendip Stoves Insulated chambers Mendip Stoves are lined with vermiculite heat deflection panels and baffles, these panels are designed to ensure the maximum efficiency and are an integral part of the clean burn process of the stove. These baffles should not be removed other than for cleaning the stove. Any defective panels should be replaced. Place fuel into the fire fire chamber of your stove, impact from logs can cause the heat deflection panel to crack.
Operating your stove- Loxton, Churchill & Sqabox stove Suitable fuels Churchill , Loxton & Sqabox models are tested to burn wood or smokeless coal. (Loxton 10 & Churchill 10 are wood only) Wood briquettes and peat can also be burnt. For a full list of suitable fuels, check with the official solid fuels approvals body, HETAS or Solid Fuel Association. Do not overload stove as this can cause excessive heat and damage the stove( see table on page 3 ).
RE-FUELLING ( wood) To re-fuel your stove in the cleanest way. Only refuel your stove when flames have died down and you have glowing embers. Before refuelling, open secondary air slider fully . Open door gently, add two pieces of wood (see weight table page 3) and close the door. Once the flames from the logs are fully established the secondary air supply can be adjusted to the desired setting .
RE-FUELLING (Solid fuel) To re-fuel your stove. Before refuelling, open secondary and primary air controls fully. Open door gently and de -ash your stove with use of poker. (not provided) Add fuel to below tertiary air bar (see weight table on page 3) and close the door. Leave the air controls open whilst fuel is established. Set primary air to 45% open and set secondary air to 40% open. In the event of a chimney fire: Close the air controls and the stove door, and call 999 or your local fire brigade.
AIR CONTROLS Secondary air Left open / right closed Tertiary air Permanently open Primary air Left open / right closed DOOR OPERATION When opening the door of your Mendip stove always wear the glove that is provided to protect your hand from possible heat. The handle has push pull motion as shown above. When shutting the door push the door closed and push handle firmly until the door latches. To Open door lift handle.
Maintenance Mendip stoves recommends that the Churchill, Loxton & Sqabox models need to have the ash removed from the stove at regular intervals (weekly if used daily). Allowing the ash pan to over flow can impede the function of the stove and can cause possible damage to the stove grate and ash pan. To remove ash pan use ash pan tool to hook under frontal loop on front of ash pan drawer. Lift and pull out of firebox chamber. Take care to support ash pan during movement, always wear a heat resistant glove.
Trouble shooting 1. a) b) c) d) e) Fire Will Not Burn - check the air inlet is not obstructed in any way, that chimney and flue ways are clear, that a suitable fuel is being used, that there is an adequate air supply into the room, that an extractor fan is not fitted in the same room as the fire. 2.
