User Instructions

the flat front of the stove by the following amounts:
C-Four & C-Six 365mm, C-Five 436mm, C-Seven 515mm, and C-
Eight 450mm.
If in doubt as to the positioning of the stove, expert advice should be
sought either from the supplier or the local building inspector. The
fireplace must allow good circulation of air around the appliance to
ensure that maximum heat is transferred to the room and also to
prevent the fireplace from overheating. A gap of 150mm (6") each
side and 300mm (12") above the appliance should give sufficient air
circulation. If a wooden mantelpiece or beam is used in the fireplace it
should be a minimum of 460mm (18"), and preferably 600mm (24")
from the appliance. In some situations it may be necessary to shield
the beam or mantelpiece to protect it.
In order for the fire to operate correctly and to allow for access,
there must be an air gap behind the appliance of at least 75mm, but
be aware that this distance will need to be greater in some cases to
meet Building Regulation requirements.
The appliance should be installed on a floor with adequate load-
bearing capacity. If an existing construction does not meet this
requirement then please take suitable measures to achieve this. (e.g.
load distributing plate.)
CONNECTIONS TO FLUES
The stove must be connected to the flue using flue pipe of the
following sizes:
Stove Model C-Four & C-Five.....................125mm (5") i/d pipe.
Stove Model C-Six, C-Seven & C-Eight........150mm (6") i/d pipe.
This may be stainless steel, cast iron, or thick wall steel pipe. Straight
lengths of Charnwood Pipe to match the stove are available if
required.
There are several ways of connecting the stove to the flue. These are
illustrated in Figs. 4 to 7.
If the top flue connection or optional vertical rear flue connector is
used then the chimney may be swept through the appliance.
Horizontal lengths of flue must be kept to a minimum and should not
be more in length than the flue diameter.
The stove comes with the blanking plate fitted to the top flue outlet.
The seal for the top outlet is a 180mm dia ring of rope seal. The seal
for the rear outlet is a length of adhesive backed fibre webbing
supplied with instructions. This is applied to the flue collar or the
Vertical Rear Flue adapter for rear outlet installations. For top outlet
installations, the blanking plate must be removed, have the webbing
fitted to its sealing face, and fitted to the rear flue outlet. Ensure that
the fold on the clamping plate is in line with the lugs on the firebox as
shown in Fig 8. Ensure that the clamping plate does not prevent the
throat plate from seating correctly. All flue connections must be well
sealed.
SOOT DOORS
It is possible to pass a 16 inch diameter sweeps brush through the
appliance but in most back outlet installations it will be necessary to
have a soot door to enable the chimney to be swept. The optional
vertical rear flue connector does allow the chimney to be swept
through the stove. Soot doors may either be in the actual brickwork
of the chimney or in the register plate. Various positions of soot
doors are shown in Figs. 4 to 7.
