HEARTH
The stove can be recessed in a suitable sized non Combustible fireplace but a permanent free air gap of at
least 50mm must be le� around the sides, the top and the back of the stove; this is to facilitate a reasonable
heat output and allows access to the stove for removal and maintenance. A clearance of 100mm will give a
be�er heat output.
All non Combustible walls closer than 100mm to the stove should be at least 75mm thick. For practical reasons
the back wall of the fireplace recess and the hearth should ideally be made of non Combustible material. When
installing your stove in a non Combustible chamber, Combustible materials should not be located where the
heat dissipating through the walls of fireplace 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 instruc�ons.
The minimum distances to flammable materials are specified on the EN 13240 plate on the back of the stove.
To ensure that the stove has sufficient air flow available to it during opera�on, please allow at least 40mm of
clearance from the back of the air intake to the rear wall. This means that if you are installing your stove
between 50mm and 100mm away from a non Combustible wall, it may be necessary to remove the intake
spigot.
MINIMUM DISTANCE TO NON-COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
The hearth should be able to accommodate the weight of the stove and its chimney if the chimney is not
independently supported. The Churchill stoves have been tested and are suitable to be installed on a 12 mm
non Combustible plate, such as 12 mm glass plates. installation of all hearths should comply in size and
construction so that it is in accordance with the provisions of the current Building Regulations Approved
Document J.
The clearance distances to Combustible material beneath, surrounding or on the hearth and walls adjacent to
the hearth should comply with the guidance on the separation of Combustible material given in Building
Regulations Approved Document J and also in these stove instruc�ons.
If the stove is to be installed on a wooden floor, it must be covered with a non-Combustible material at least
12 mm thick , in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document J, to a distance of 30 cm in front of
the stove and 15 cm to each side measuring from the door of the combustion chamber.
