Introduction
THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING A GAS FIRED STOVE
Broseley Fires Ltd, a family run company, was founded as an appliance and
design development company in 1975.
Since then we have built up an enviable reputation for the quality, reliability and
fuel efficiency of our stoves.
The Canterbury and Lincoln Slim Line Gas Stoves have been designed
specifically to fit onto a 12” (300mm) deep hearth and a standard fireplace
opening.
These instructions have been carefully prepared to guide the installer and end-
user through the relevant methods and standards for installation of your new Gas
Stove.
Correctly installed and operated, your stove will give you many years of warmth
and reliability. Therefore, we would suggest that you read the whole instruction
manual prior to handing it to your installer. That way you will have a clearer
picture of what is involved.
General Installation Requirements
It is required by law that the complete assembly, installation and commissioning
of gas-fired stoves is carried out by a professionally qualified and accredited gas
fitter(C.O.R.G.I. registered)
THE INSTALLATION MUST BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ‘GAS SAFETY
INSTALLATION AND USE REGULATIONS’ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THESE
INSTRUCTIONS AND THE RELEVANT ‘BRITISH STANDARDS CODES OF
PRACTICE’ REQUIREMENTS AND THE RELEVANT ‘LOCAL AND NATIONAL
BUILDING REGULATIONS’.

Sitting the Appliance
The gas supply connection to the appliance is in the centre underneath the stove.
The connection requires an 8mm-diameter semi-rigid pipe, not more than 1
meter in length.
The appliance can be installed in any adequate area suitable for solid fuel fires
and stoves. It can use a class 1, class 2 and pre-cast flue.
To ensure maximum and efficient use of the stove, we recommend the following
hearth specifications.
The hearth must be at least 300mm at any angle in front of the incandescent
heat source (the burner surface) and the burner surface requires a clearance of
150mm each side. The effect of this will mean the hearth must extend about
20mm in front of the legs of the stove. The hearth must be made of non-
combustible material at least 12 millimeters thick.
On all installations, no combustible material such as carpet should cover the
hearth. To prevent this from happening, the hearth should be at least 50mm
above the level of the floor. If this is not possible, a fender/kerb of a similar height
should be placed around the edge of the hearth.
If the appliance has to be located in an opening, there must be a clearance of a
minimum of 100mm each side of the stove. The rear of the appliance should
have a minimum 25mm air gap between the stove and the back wall. There must
be a minimum clearance of 610mm from any combustible surface. i.e. skirting
board or beams.

Stove Assembly
To flue the stove into an existing fireplace Figure 1 shows the critical dimensions
required. Please check that the following components are included before you
start on the assembly:
Stove Box – Canterbury and Lincoln
1 x cast iron stove body
1 x flue spigot
Burner Box - Natural Gas – Canterbury and Lincoln
1 x burner unit
1 x stainless reflector
2 x large coal matrix
4 x small front coals
14 x small loose coals
1 x instruction booklet
4 x burner fixing and screws (2 x Self Tapping to hold to the rear of the stove)
2 x Spacers for burner (Used on Lincoln only)
3 x Self Tapping Screws for the stainless reflector
Burner Box – Propane – Canterbury and Lincoln
1 x burner unit
1 x stainless reflector
2 x large coal matrix
4 x front coals
3 x loose coals
1 x instruction booklet
4 x burner fixing screws (2 x Self Tapping to hold to the rear of the stove)
2 x Spacers for burner (Used on Lincoln only)
3 x Self tapping screws for the stainless reflector
The stove assembly is the same on both stoves Canterbury and Lincoln the only
difference being the access to the stove.
The Canterbury Stove is accessed through the main door via a threaded
handle. This handle is removed by turning anticlockwise, this allows access to
the inside of the stove. After installation please replace the handle and lock using
the grub screw located on the handle.
The Lincoln Stove is accessed through the lid of the stove via 4 bolts located on
the left and right hand sides of the stove (2 each side). Once removed the lid
should lift off and access to the stove is available. All installation can take place
through the top of the stove there is no need to remove the glass from the stove.
It is important that the lid bolts are replaced before leaving the stove with the user

6
Fitting the Burner
1) Insert the burner into the stove locating the burner bracket on to the fixing
lugs provided. Insert the burner end with the control knob first followed by
the other end of the burner locating the burner bracket onto the up stands
provided.
Use the burner fixing screws to secure the burner in place.
2) Next fix the rear of the burner bracket to the rear of the stove (dilution box)
using the self tapping screws and washers provided.

7
Fitting the Stainless Reflector Plate
After fixing the burner in position fit the stainless reflector plate to the rear of the
stove (dilution box) using the holes and fixing screws supplied.
Remove the protective film once the plate has been fitted, this will insure no
damage to the plate incurs.
To insert the reflective plate into the stove insert the bottom of the plate first,
then give the plate a slight bend inwards on both sides (to clear the door) and
finally bring the top of the plate into place. When fitting the plate into the Lincoln
stove the plate simply drops down through the top of the stove.

8
Flue Connection
Firstly you will need to attach the flue spigot to the rear of the stove using the 4
screws supplied.
The stove must be installed in accordance with current gas and buildings
regulations BS5871: Part1.
Before you install the stove, make sure the chimney flue outlet is correctly
positioned to align with the flue outlet on the stove and that the chimney is in
good condition. If not, a chimney liner must be installed or a suitable class II gas
flue used. A draught is necessary to ensure the products of combustion are fully
evacuated. Due to the internal dilution/diversion system in the stove, it is not
obligatory to line the chimney but local conditions will apply. The flue will have to
be inspected by a CORGI registered installer and passed as suitable/sound.
The Gas Stove is suitable for both Class I & II and pre-cast flues (The Building
Regulations 2000).
Ideally it is recommended that a minimum height of 610mm from the stove
should be established before any significant changes of the direction of the flue.
Horizontal or negative gradients should be avoided. The flue must have a
minimum height of 3 metres to insure adequate draught.
Prior to installation, the installer should insure that the flue is free from
obstruction and any dampers must be fixed in a permanently open position.
Ensure the chimney is not closed and that it has been swept and subsequently
smoke tested.
Make sure that rain, birds or any foreign body cannot get into the chimney to
cause damage or blockage. This problem can normally be overcome by fitting an
approved gas cowl. It is essential for the effective running of your stove that the
chimney draws properly to allow the products of combustion to escape.
Ventilation (GB only)
The gas stove is rated at less than 7kw and therefore does not normally require
additional ventilation in the room (BS5871 – part II).
Gas Connection
A minimum 15mm-diameter gas supply pipe must be used to within 1 metre of
the installation with the final connection to the stove to be completed with the
suitable 8mm semi-rigid gas pipe. The 8mm pipe should be connected to the inlet
of the gas valve using the nut and 8mm olive provided. Support the control whilst
finally tightening the supply pipe.

9
Pressure Testing
Always make sure that there is adequate gas pressure and volume to the stove.
The relevant pressures are on the ID plate on the gas control knob.
1. For natural gas, this is 20mbar for LPG 37mbar measured at the inlet
connection to the stove with the appliance in the full rate position.
2. Ensure that the gas pressure to the stove is maintained when it is
operating at the same time as other appliances in the building and that a
suitable pressure gauge is used i.e. a manometer. Any service call as a
result of incorrect gas pressure will be chargeable.
Arranging the Layout of the Coals – Natural Gas
Only the ceramics supplied with this appliance should be used. The ceramics
should only be laid as described. Replacement ceramics are available from
your dealer.
Whilst arranging the ceramics, ensure that the pilot is not obstructed.
Broseley Fires Ltd accepts no responsibility for any injury sustained whilst
handling hot ceramics.
Before any ceramics are placed in position ensure that the burner is
operating correctly.
Ceramics which are found to be placed other than in accordance with
these instructions will result in a charge being made following any
service callout.
1. Position the two large coal matrixes on the burner as shown, and then
position the four separately packed coals in the corresponding
indentations on the front edge of the coal bed.

10
2. Position a coal on each of the platforms on the centre coal.
3. Place a coal on either side, resting on the coal bed and the loose coal
beside it. Next to this, bridge the gap between the front and the middle row
either side of he center. The central coal is then positioned resting on the
front coals and node on the centre coal.
4. Place the final layers of coals carefully as shown.

11
Arranging the Layout of the Coals - Propane
1) Position the first large coal matrix on the burner as shown. This coal
matrix sits directly on the burner.
2) Position the second large coal matrix at the back of the burner resting on
the first coal matrix as shown
3) Position 4 ceramic coals in between the up stands of the first ceramic
base. These coals should not be forced into the gaps just lightly positioned
as shown.

12
4) Place the final layers of coals bridging the gap between the first and
second large coal matrixes. These should not be forced into position just
placed carefully as shown.
Test for Spillage
A Spillage Test MUST be made before the installed fire is left with the customer.
Carry out the test by first closing all doors and windows in the room containing
the fire.
Insure that the fire is burning at full rate for a minimum of 10-15 minutes.
Using a lighted smoke match, run it along under the rear edge of the stove. The
draught diverter box is situated at the rear of the stove, the entry being in the rear
panel for the stove. Observe the smoke being drawn into the dilution box. After
10 minutes repeat the test.
If there is an extractor fan in a nearby room the spillage test must be repeated
with the fan running and all connecting doors between the fire and fan left open.
If there are still problems, the chimney / flue may require attention. Disconnect
the stove and seek expect advice.
Spillage Monitoring System
This appliance is fitted with an atmospheric sensing spillage monitoring system,
in the form of an oxygen depletion-sensing pilot. This is designed to shut down
the fire within a safe period if there is an excessive build up of products of
combustion within the room space. This would usually only occur if the flue path
suffered severe blockage and / or ventilation was severely impeded

13
THE FOLLOWING ARE IMPORTANANT WARNINGS RELATIVE TO THE
SPILLAGE MONITORING SYSTEM
1. The installer must not attempt any adjustments to the spillage monitoring
system.
2. There must be no attempt to disable the spillage monitoring system.
3. It is not possible to replace individual parts of the pilot assembly on the
appliance – only a complete pilot assembly (including thermocouple) may
be fitted in the event of a replacement being necessary. When the
spillage monitoring system is replaced, only complete and original
manufactures’ parts may be fitted.
4. Should the appliance turn itself off, wait for a minimum of 3 minutes before
attempting to re-light. In the event of your stove tripping out, consult your
installation engineer to have the flue / chimney checked.
Operating the Stove
It is important to read these instructions thoroughly before lighting the
stove.
The gas stove operates with a traditional permanent pilot light.
The knob for ignition and power control are located on the lower right hand side
of the stove.
The pilot light is located at the left corner of the coal matrix.
If the Flame Supervision Device Actuating Flame (the pilot light) is extinguished
by intention or not, no attempt should be made to re-light until 3 minutes have
elapsed.
IGNITING THE PERMANENT PILOT LIGHT
1. Depress the control knob fully.
2. Whilst depressed, turn knob sharply 90 degrees anti-clockwise to “pilot”
setting. Repeat until pilot light is visibly lit. You should feel some
resistance and hear a click. Repeat until the pilot lights.
3. Keep knob depressed at this point for 15-20 seconds.
4. Upon releasing, turn the knob clockwise until it stops in the permanent
pilot light position. The permanent pilot light will remain lit.
5. Once the permanent pilot is lit you can continue to turn the knob clockwise
to select high or low flame setting.

14
EXTINGUISHING THE STOVE FULLY
1. From any heat setting or the permanent pilot, depress control knob and
turn clockwise to “OFF” position.
Should the glass door become broken or damaged in any way, turn your stove
off and do not attempt to re-light it. Contact your dealer for a replacement to be
fitted before relighting the appliance.
PLEASE EXPLAIN TO THE CUSTOMER THESE LIGHTING AND
EXTINGUSIHING PROCEDURES AND THAT IT IS NORMAL FOR THE
STOVE TO GIVE OFF ODOURS WHILST THE PAINT, SEALANT AND CAST
IRON MATURES.
Troubleshooting
The gas pilot will not ignite or stay lit
•Ensure the gas is turned on at the appliance and the meter / cylinder.
•Hold the pilot gas button for at lest 20 seconds once the pilot is alight to
ensure the operation of the safety thermocouple valve.
•Ensure that the pilot injector is not obstructed or blocked and it is free from
any dust or dirt.
•Ensure that the thermocouple has not been damaged in transit. This is a very
delicate device.
•Ensure that the aeration ring shutter on the pilot head is fully open so that the
pilot flame is initially intense: this can be subsequently turned down.
•Ensure the pilot flame is the correct size for the type of gas. The flame
should be focused on the thermocouple probe, so that it is evenly encircled.
•The pilot should have 3 flames. One directed towards the thermocouple, one
towards the bed of the fire and the third towards the ignitor valve.
•Any whistling sound you hear is normally caused by dirt obstructing the pilot.
This is normally cured by carrying out the cleaning process outlined in the
next section entitled Servicing Instructions.
•After altering the pilot, check for any leakage of gas
The main burner does not seem to burn correctly
•Ensure there is adequate gas pressure to the appliance. The pressure can
be obtained by unscrewing the pressure test nipple and applying a suitable
pressure gauge (I.E. A MANOMETER). Be sure that the gas pressure agrees
with the identification label on your stove.
•Ensure adequate volume of gas is being used. Once the fire is burning on
maximum, turn off all other gas appliances in the house and calculate the fuel
being burned from the gas meter.
•See that the burner is burning evenly across the whole of the mesh surface
without any coals in place.

15
Servicing Instructions
Servicing should be carried out annually by a qualified installation engineer when
the stove is cold and the gas supply is turned off at the isolation tap. The
following points should be checked.
•Remove the coals and clean any dust and debris from the top of the burner
unit. Ideally a vacuum cleaner should be used, but a soft brush will do.
•Check the condition of the coals. Any damaged ones will affect the efficient
operation of the stove and should be replaced with new ones available from
your stove supplier.
•All gas supply joints should be checked to make sure they are completely
sealed and that the gas supply and pressure is to specification.
•The pilot jets are correctly set and clear of obstruction.
•The chimney should also be checked to make sure there are no restrictions or
blockages.
•Finally re-lay the coals and re-light the stove as described previously.
Curing the Paint
Most high temperature paints operate in the same way. They use a resin which
dries at room temperature and a silicon resin which cures at high temperatures.
When the stove is burned the dry resin burns away and the silicon cures. This
transition occurs about 475 degrees F.
After the stove burns about three times, the entire surface which gets hot will
have cured. The house needs to be fully ventilated during these initial burnings
and although the smoke is mostly Carbon Dioxide there are other components of
the smoke which make it smell bad and may irritate some people. These
problems will go away after the first few burns depending of the duration and
surface temperature of each burn. The hotter the stoves gets the more it will
cure.

16
