INSTALLING THE LOXTON 5 IN A CORNER POSITION
Only loxton models
fi�ed with side
convector panels can
be fi�ed in corner
posi�on
HEARTH
The stove can be recessed in a suitable sized non combus�ble 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 combus�ble walls closer than 100mm to the stove should be at least 75mm thick. For prac�cal reasons
the back wall of the fireplace recess and the hearth should ideally be made of non combus�ble material. When
installing your stove in a non combus�ble chamber, combus�ble materials should not be located where the
heat dissipa�ng through the walls of fireplaces or flues could ignite it. Therefore when installing the stove
in the presence of combus�ble materials due account must be taken of the guidance on the separa�on of
combus�ble material given in Building regulations Approved Document J and also in these stove instructions.
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 combus�ble 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 Loxton stoves have been tested and are suitable to be installed on a 12 mm non
combus�ble plate, such as 12 mm glass plates. installation of all hearths should comply in size and construc�on
so that it is in accordance with the provisions of the current Building regulations Approved Document J.
The clearance distances to combus�ble material beneath, surrounding or on the hearth and walls adjacent to
the hearth should comply with the guidance on the separa�on of combus�ble material given in Building
regulations Approved Document J and also in these stove instructions.
If the stove is to be installed on a wooden floor, it must be covered with a non-combus�ble 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.
