CONTROLLING THE FIRE

The rate of burning and hence the output is controlled by the

control knob on the left hand side of the appliance, shown in

Fig. 1. This is linked to a thermostat which controls the boiler

temperature. The number at the top of the knob is the

number at which it is set. Some experimentation may be

necessary to obtain the desired heat output.

HEATING SYSTEM

The heating system controls may consist of time switches,

room thermostats, outdoor temperature thermostats and

thermostatic radiator valves in virtually any combination.

These will work in conjunction with the thermostat control on

the fire. The thermostat on the fire will simply control the

There is also a manual secondary air control which is located

above the door opening as shown in Fig. 2. To adjust the

setting, open the doors and use the door opening tool to

move the flap to the desired position. This control should be in

the closed position when burning any of the recommended

fuels except for anthracite, or homefire which should be burnt

with the secondary air inlet open.

For correct firing we recommend the use of a stove pipe

thermometer which may be purchased from your supplier, or

from ourselves.

temperature of the boiler and hence the temperature of the

radiators and domestic hot water. The automatic controls

(other than thermostatic radiator valves) will switch the pump

(and hence the radiators) on and off. Your installer will be

able to explain the controls fitted to your system and how to

operate them.

ASH CLEARANCE

The ashpan should be emptied regularly before it becomes

too full. The most convenient time to remove the ash is just

before riddling the fire since the ash will then be at it’s

coolest. Use the tool provided to remove the ashpan.

Never allow the ash to accumulate in the ashpan so that it

comes in contact with the underside of the grate as this will

seriously damage the grate bars. Ensure that the air inlet

damper is not prevented from closing by spilled fuel or ash.

Care should be taken to ensure that ash is cool before

emptying it into plastic liners or bins.

To make ash removal easier there is a special Charnwood ash

carrier available. This may be purchased from your supplier

or, in case of difficulty, from ourselves.

RIDDLING

Riddling twice a day is usually sufficient. The fire should be

riddled with all doors shut. Place the tool on the knob and

rotate between the horizontal and the 45° position several

times as shown in Fig. 3.

Caution: When riddling the grate using solid fuel do not go

beyond the 45° position as this can cause the grate to jam.

If jamming does occur then the fire should be allowed to burn

for approximately half an hour before riddling the grate again

as described above.

Too much riddling can result in emptying unburnt fuel into the

ashpan and should therefore be avoided. Clinker should

regularly be removed from the firebed. After riddling, the

grate should be put back into the solid fuel position (the tool

should be horizontal).
