DOOR OPERATION

MULTI GRATE

The door handle has been carefully designed to be removed from the

stove during normal operation and re-fitted prior to loading and

de-ashing . However, if you need to open the door when the fire is

running at maximum then the additional use of a cloth or glove may

be required. Do not slam or strike the door.

Take care not to touch the door as it will be hot when the fire is

burning. Turn the door handle anti-clockwise to open, and clockwise

to close. For normal operation, the door must be closed.

Your Charnwood Cove is fitted with a multi grate to enable wood to

be burned and ash to be cleared. The grate has two positions:-

1) In the open position the grate bars are vertical with gaps in

between allowing the ash to fall down into the ashpan .

2) In the closed position the grate bars are horizontal, allowing the

combustion air to come round the sides of the grate and over the top

of it. When in the closed position ash is able to build up on the grate

as is necessary for effective wood burning.

Movement of the grate from one position to the other is effected

using the door opening tool supplied as shown in Fig. 2. The grate is

put into the open position by moving the tool up until the handle is in

the 1 o'clock position. The grate is put into the closed position by

moving the tool down until the handle is in the 5 o'clock position. To

riddle the appliance the tool should be moved between the 1 o'clock

and 3 o'clock positions several times. When burning wood the ash

should be allowed to build up and riddling should only be carried out

once or twice a week.

DO NOT USE THIS STOVE IF THE DOOR GLASS IS BROKEN.

Before lighting the stove check with the installer that the work and

checks described in the Installation Instructions have been carried out

correctly and that the chimney has been swept, is sound and free

from any obstructions.

FUEL

Only dry well seasoned wood should be burnt on this appliance as

burning wet unseasoned wood will give rise to heavy tar deposits in

the stove, on the glass and within the chimney. For the same reason

hard woods (such as Ash, Beech and Oak) are better than soft woods

(such as Pine and Spruce.) Burning wet unseasoned wood will also

result in considerably reduced outputs. The wood should be cut and

split and then left to season in a well ventilated dry place for at least

one year but preferably two years before use. Do not store fuel

within the room heater installation clearances or within the space

required for fuel charging and ash removal.

This stove is not designed to burn household waste. For advice on

other fuels, please contact Charnwood.

PETROLEUM COKE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE ON THIS

APPLIANCE. ITS USE WILL INVALIDATE THE GUARANTEE.

DO NOT USE CHEMICALS OR FLUIDS TO START THE FIRE.

DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS SUCH

AS GASOLINE, NAPHTHA OR ENGINE OIL.

NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL,

KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID, OR SIMILAR

LIQUIDS TO START OR 'FRESHEN UP' A FIRE IN THIS

HEATER. KEEP ALL SUCH LIQUIDS WELL AWAY FROM THE

HEATER WHILE IT IS IN USE.

Your Cove stove has been designed to work with the minimum

effort. If any operation - such as riddling the grate or opening and

closing the door - begins to require extra force then the cause must

be investigated and corrected to prevent damage being caused to the

stove.

It is also made from hard material. Ensure that you have good

balance before operating the fire.

REMEMBER THE STOVE WILL BE HOT WHILE IN

OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN, CLOTHING AND FURNITURE

AWAY. CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN BURNS.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

LIGHTING

The stove may be lit using dry kindling wood and paper or fire

lighters. Set the grate into the closed position. Place the paper, or

fire lighters, and kindling on the grate and cover with a few small dry

logs. Open the air control fully (see Fig. 1.) Light the paper or fire

lighters. Leave the door cracked open until the fuel is well ignited

then load with dry logs such that the air holes in the rear air manifold

are still clearly visible. Load the logs diagonally along the firebed to

ensure good airflow.

Do not close the fire door

completely, but leave it cracked open for a few minutes until flames

are well established above the logs. It may now be fully closed. Once

the fire is up to temperature the airwash system will begin to work,

so allow the fire to become hot before adjusting the air control to the

required setting.

On initial lighting, the stove may smoke and give off an odour as the

silicon paint with which the firebox is painted reacts to the heat. This

is normal and will cease after a short time, but meanwhile the room

should be kept well ventilated.

At first only light a small fire and burn it slowly for two hours to allow

any residual moisture in the bricks to evaporate.

When relighting the stove, riddle slightly, and then empty the ashpan.

The fire is controlled by the single air control knob shown in Fig. 1.

Pull the knob out to make the fire burn faster, push it in to make the

fire burn slower.

Logs must NOT be loaded above the level of

the air holes in the rear air manifold.

CONTROLLING THE FIRE

This unique QuattroFlow air control* provides carefully balanced

air to enable optimum burning conditions without the need to adjust

multiple controls.

If for any reason the flame dies, the door must be cracked open until

the flame is well re-established

few small dry logs with a good amount of kindling will help to get

the fire up to temperature quickly.

For correct firing we recommend the use of a stove pipe

thermometer which may be purchased from your supplier or from

ourselves.

. Overfiring may cause a house

fire or can result in permanent damage to the stove. If any part of the

stove glows, you are overfiring.

DO NOT OVERFIRE THIS HEATER

*Patent No.2389414

RIDDLING

When burning wood, ash should be allowed to build up and only

riddled when the ash begins to cover the slots in the rear fireplate.

The fire should be riddled with the door shut (see Fig. 2.) Place the

tool onto the riddling lever and rotate between the 1 o'clock and 3

o'clock positions several times. Too much riddling can result in

emptying unburnt fuel into the ashpan and should therefore be

avoided. D

After riddling, the grate should be put back

into the closed position (the tool should be in the 5 o'clock position

for closed grate).

The ashpan should be emptied regularly before it becomes too full.

REFUELLING

The firebox must not be overfilled and fuel must not spill over the top

of the front fire bar.

If the fire has burnt down to

half volume, one or two logs may be added without changing any

controls. If a complete refuel is required, then the door must be

cracked open for a few minutes as described in the ‘Lighting’

paragraph. Logs should be evenly distributed diagonally across the

fire bed, ensuring that the rear manifold airholes are clear.

Fuel must not project over the front fire bar or damage to the glass

may be caused when the door is closed. It can also cause the glass to

black up, and smoke to be produced. Maximum filling height is such

that logs cannot impede the air flow through the rear manifold

airholes. Liquid fuels are not to be used on this stove.

ASH CLEARANCE AND DISPOSAL

NEVER ALLOW THE ASH TO ACCUMULATE IN THE

ASHPAN SO THAT IT COMES IN CONTACT WITH THE

o not remove all of the ash using the riddling mechanism

but keep a layer about half an inch thick as this enables the wood to

burn more effectively.

Logs must NOT be loaded above the level of

the air holes in the rear air manifold.

Cleaning

Cleaning the Glass

The ashpan is handled using the

Door Opening tool provided. Ensure that the tongue of the ashpan is

protruding through the slot in the top of the tool before lifting. (See

Fig.3) . Care should be taken to ensure that ash is cool before

emptying it into plastic liners or bins. Ashes should be placed in a

steel container with a tight fitting lid and moved outdoors

immediately. Other waste shall not be placed in this container. The

closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor

or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending

the final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or

otherwise

ly dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all

cinders have thoroughly cooled.

To make ash disposal easier there is a special ash container available -

the . This may be purchased from your

supplier or, in case of difficulty, from Charnwood.

The stove is finished with a high temperature paint which will

withstand the temperatures encountered in normal use. This may be

cleaned with a damp lint-free cloth when the stove is cold. Should re-

painting become necessary then special high temperature paints are

available from your supplier or from Charnwood.

The glass in the door is a special ceramic glass which is able to

withstand high temperatures. Before cleaning the glass open the door

and allow it to cool. Clean the glass using a damp cloth and then wipe

over with a dry cloth. Any stubborn deposits on the glass may be

removed with a proprietary stove glass cleaner or ceramic hob

MAINTENANCE

Charnwood ash carrier

cleaner. Some deposits on the glass may be burnt off simply by

running the fire at a fast rate for a few minutes.

The ceramic glass (part no. 006/PY18) in the door comes already

fitted. In the unlikely event the glass should break then the broken

glass should be carefully removed and disposed of safely. The door

can then be opened and simply lifted up and off the hinge posts. Pins

locate the door in the hinge posts. Remove the four glass retainers by

unscrewing the screws holding them in. The glass seal should be

inspected for signs of wear and replaced if necessary. Lay the door

flat – inside up – and place the new glass carefully into the glass area.

Re-fit the glass retainers. Do not overtighten the screws.

If the fire is going to be out of use for a long period (for instance in

the summer) then to prevent condensation, and hence corrosion, the

air control should be left fully open and the fire door left ajar. It is

also advisable to sweep the chimney and clean out the fire. Spraying

the inside of the door and firebox with a light oil, such as WD40, will

also help to keep all internal parts working well.

After long periods where the fire has been out of use, the chimney

and appliance flueways should be cleaned before lighting.

For the fire to operate correctly it is important that the door seals

are in good condition. Check that they do not become worn or

frayed and replace them when necessary.

It is recommended that the fire is serviced once a year to keep it in

first class working order. After cleaning out the firebox thoroughly,

check that all internal parts are in good working order, replacing any

parts that are beginning to show signs of wear. Check that the door

seals are in good condition and that the door seals correctly. A

servicing guide is available on request. Repairs or modifications may

only be carried out by the Manufacturer or their approved agents.

It is important that the throat plate and all the stove flueways are kept

clean. They should be checked approximately once a week, by

looking up into the firebox for signs of soot, fly-ash or creosote on

the throat plate and at the sides of the firebox. If there are signs of a

build up of soot, fly-ash or creosote deposits then the fire must be let

out in order to clean the throat plate and flueways.

Before attempting to clean the throat plate and flueways ensure that

the fire is cold. Wear suitable gloves to prevent irritation from soot

deposits. To remove the throat plate lift the left hand edge up, pull

the plate forwards and to the left, (1&2) then lower the plate down

from its right hand side (3). It may now be removed by manouvering

through the doorway. (see Fig. 4.)

The chimney should be swept at least once a year. Where a top

outlet is used it will generally be possible to sweep the chimney

through the appliance. If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire

CREOSOTE – FORMATION AND NEED

FOR REMOVAL

THROAT PLATE AND

FLUEWAY CLEANING

CHIMNEY SWEEPING

When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other organic

vapors, which combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The

creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney flue of a

slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue accumulates on the

flue lining. When ignited this creosote makes an extremely hot fire.

The chimney connector and chimney should be inspected at least

once every two months during the heating season to determine if a

creosote build up has occurred.

If creosote has accumulated (3mm, (1/8in.) or more) it should be

removed to reduce the risk of a chimney fire.

then the chimney should be swept one month after installation to

clear any soot falls which may have occurred due to the difference in

combustion between the stove and the open fire.

First remove the front firebar, side fire plates, and the throat plate.

Then sweep the chimney ensuring that soot is removed from all

horizontal surfaces after sweeping.

In situations where it is not possible to sweep through the appliance

the installer will have provided alternative means, such as a soot door.

After sweeping the chimney the appliance flue outlet and the flue

pipe connecting the stove to the chimney must be cleaned with a flue

brush.

Check that:

a) the air inlet at the rear of the stove is not obstructed in any way,

b) chimneys and flueways are clear,

c) that a suitable fuel is being used,

d) that there is an adequate air supply into the room,

e) that an extractor fan is not fitted in the same room as the stove.

f) there is sufficient draw in the chimney, (once the chimney is warm

a draft reading of at least 0.10 inches water gauge (25Pa) should be

After clearing any soot from within the stove, replace the throat plate

(see Fig. 4), the side fireplates, and front firebar .

Different types of sweep's brushes are available to suit different

flueways. For standard brick chimneys a wire centre sweep's brush

fitted with a guide wheel is recommended. For prefabricated

insulated chimneys the manufacturers instructions with regard to

sweeping should be consulted.

This appliance uses an automatic air control timer which is powered by

four type AA alkaline batteries. It is recommended that the alkaline

batteries are changed at the start of every heating season. The batteries

are contained in a box located on the inside right of the stand. A light on

the box indicates when the timer is in operation. The timer is actuated

when the stove door is closed and runs for a pre-determined time, then

automatically switches off. If on closing the door the light on the box

does not illuminate then this indicates that the batteries need replacing.

The timer controls an auxiliary air slide which ensures smokeless

operation.

obtained).

Keeping the glass clean requires a certain amount of experimentation

due to the differences in the draw of different chimneys. The

following points should be noted and with a little care should enable

the glass to be kept clean in most situations:

a) The airwash relies on a supply of heated air to keep the glass clean,

therefore, when lighting the stove allow the fire bed to become well

established before closing the air control. This also applies when re-

fuelling the stove.

b) When re-fuelling keep the fuel as far back from the front firebar as

possible, do not try to fit too much fuel into the firebox.

c) Wet wood or logs overhanging the front firebars will cause the

glass to blacken.

It is always more difficult to keep the glass clean when running the

stove very slowly for long periods.

Check that all flue connections and the blanking plate are well sealed.

It is also important that the chimney draw is sufficient

hen the chimney is warm a draft reading of

at least 0.10 inches water gauge(25pa) should be obtained.

The most common cause of fume emission is flueway or chimney

blockage. For your own safety these must be kept clean.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Check that :

a) The door is tightly closed.

b) The air control is pushed in .

c) A suitable fuel is being used.

d) Door seals are intact.

If the chimney is thoroughly and regularly swept, chimney fires should

not occur. However, contact your local municipal or provincial fire

authority for information on how to handle a chimney fire, and if a

chimney fire does occur push the air control in fully and tightly close

the door of the appliance. This should cause the chimney fire to go out

in which case the control should be kept closed until the stove has gone

out. The chimney and flueways should then be cleaned. If the chimney

fire does not go out when the above action is taken then the fire

brigade should be called immediately.

Chimney Fires

After a chimney fire the chimney should be carefully examined for any

damage. Expert advice should be sought if necessary.

If you need further help with your Charnwood Cove then your Installer

will be able to provide the answers to most questions. Your Local

Charnwood Premier Dealer has a great deal of experience and will also

be able to provide helpful advice. Further help is available from the

Charnwood Customer Services department who will be pleased to give

HEALTH & SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please take care when installing the stove that the requirements of

Health and Safety at Work are met.

All aspects of the installation must conform to NFPA 211.

Some types of fire cement are caustic and should not be allowed to

come into contact with the skin. In case of contact wash with plenty

of water.

If there is a possibility of disturbing any asbestos in the course of

installation then please use appropriate protective equipment.

There must be an adequate air supply into the room in which the

appliance is installed to provide combustion air. The combustion air

supply must be via a permanently open vent. The minimum free area

required is (1 ).2.5 in 6.5cm

2 2

This is particularly necessary if the

room is double glazed. It must be positioned such that it is not liable

to blockage.

If an extractor fan is fitted in the same room as the stove, there must

be sufficient fresh air supply to provide for both stove and fan and

CHIMNEY

The stove must be connected to a code-approved masonry chimney

with a flue liner, to a relined masonry chimney that meets local codes,

or to a prefabricated metal chimney that complies with the

requirements for Type HT chimneys in the Standard for Chimneys

Factory-Built, Residential Type and Building Heating Appliance, UL

103, or High Temperature (650°C) Standard ULC S-629 for Canada.

In order for the appliance to perform satisfactorily the chimney

height must not be less than 13' (4 metres) measured vertically from

the outlet of the stove to the top of the chimney. The minimum

internal chimney size is

If an existing chimney is to be used it must be swept and checked, it

must be in good condition, free from cracks and blockages, and

should not have an excessive cross sectional area. Your local building

inspector, professional chimney sweep or fire department official will

be able to inspect the chimney, or refer you to someone who can. If

the chimney is in poor condition then advice should be sought

regarding the necessity of having the chimney lined. If it is found

necessary to line the chimney then a lining suitable for Solid Fuel must

be used.

If there is no existing chimney then a prefabricated block chimney or

a twin walled insulated stainless steel flue can be used either internally

or externally. These chimneys must be fitted in accordance with the

manufacturers instructions and Building Regulations.

Single wall flue pipe is suitable for connecting the stove to the

chimney but is not suitable for using for the complete chimney.

If it is found that there is excessive draw in the chimney then a draft

stabilizer should be fitted.

It is important that there is sufficient draw in the chimney and that

the chimney does not suffer from down-draft. When the chimney is

warm the draw should be not less than 0.1 inches water gauge

(25pa). If in doubt about the chimney seek expert advice.

6 inches diameter(150mm) or 6"x6"(150mm

UNPACKING THE STOVE

The stove arrives bolted and shrink-wrapped to its pallet. The

wrapping is first removed, then the stove released from the pallet by

removing the 4 pallet bolts using a 10mm spanner. The pallet brackets

can now be removed from the stove by tilting it and using a 13mm

spanner to remove the bolts. These 4 bolts are replaced for levelling

the stove. It may now be moved to its final position. The pallet is

intended to be cut up and used for kindling fuel.

HEARTH AND FIRE SURROUND

The stove must stand on a fireproof hearth or a non combustible

floor protector must be used. The floor protector must be of non

combustible material such as 24 gauge sheet metal or equivalent. If

carpeting is present, it must be removed before installation of the

floor protector. The floor protector may be covered with a

noncombustible decorative material if desired. When using brick, tile

or stone, individual pieces must be joined by mortar so sparks cannot

fall through.

, the floor protector (see Fig. 5.) must extend at

least 16" from of the stove front and at least 6" from sides and rear.

To meet the requirement in the United States, a floor protector must

be at least 34" wide and 40" deep.

, the floor protector (see Fig. 6) must extend 18"(460mm)

to the front, and 8" (203 mm) from the sides and rear. To meet

Canadian requirements, a floor protector must be at least 38" (965

mm) wide and 44" (1118 mm) deep.

For Rear Flue Connection, floor protection also must extend under

the chimney connector and 2" (51 mm) to either side. For the 6"

(152 mm) connector used with the Cove 2, the protector must be a

minimum of 10" (254 mm) wide, central under the connector.

If a wooden mantelpiece or beam is used in the fireplace it should be

a minimum of 18 inches (460mm) from the appliance. In some

situations it may be necessary to shield the beam or mantelpiece to

protect it. Shielding must be of non combustible material spaced off

the beam by at least ½ in (12mm) on non combustible spacers.

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 6 inches (150mm)

each side and 12 inches (300mm) above the appliance from non

combustible materials should give sufficient air circulation.

When the fire door is open, it extends beyond the front of the stove

by 16.3in (414mm).

In order for the fire to operate correctly there must be an air gap

behind the appliance of at least 1.6"(40mm), but be aware that this

distance will need to be greater in some cases to meet Building

Regulation requirements.

A Chimney Connector is the double-wall or single-wall pipe that

connects the stove to the chimney and must be in good condition and

kept clean.

Double-wall chimney connectors must be tested and listed for use

with solid-fuel burning appliances. Single-wall chimney connectors

should be made of 24 gauge or heavier steel, and should be 6”

(150mm) in diameter. Do not use a galvanized connector; it cannot

withstand the high temperatures that can be reached by smoke and

gases, and may release toxic fumes under high heat.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

seal for the 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.

rear

Ensure that

the fold on the clamping plate is in line with the lugs on the firebox as

shown in Fig.16

Ensure that the clamping plate does not prevent the

throat plate from seating correctly.

The Flue Collar is bolted to the stove using the two screws and nuts

provided and tightened down onto the ring of rope seal as shown in

Fig.17. The crimped end of the Chimney Connector Pipe is located in

the tapered inside of the Flue Collar and secured with 3 sheet metal

screws. Any subsequent sections must be assembled in the direction

shown in Fig.17. 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. This may either

be in the actual brickwork of the chimney or in the register plate.

Various types and positions of soot doors are shown in figures 12 to

15.

PRE LIGHTING CHECK

COMMISSIONING

Before initial lighting the following points should be checked :-

1. The bottom grate bars must all be fitted and should move freely

and easily when the riddling mechanism is operated.

2. The plates round the sides and back of the grate must be in

position and sitting correctly.

3. The throat plate must be fitted in the roof of the appliance and

should be checked to ensure that it has not become dislodged in

transit. The method of location and positioning of the throat plate is

shown in Fig. 4.

4. The tape covering the positive terminal of the battery in the control

box must be removed, allowing the automatic timer to operate.

On completion of the installation and after allowing a suitable period

of time for the fire cement and mortar to dry out, the stove should be

lit and checked to ensure that smoke and fumes are taken from the

appliance up the chimney and emitted safely. Also check all joints and

seals. On completion of the installation and commissioning please

leave the operating instructions with the customer and advise them on

the use of the appliance.
