A warm welcome to Contura.
A warm welcome to the Contura family. We hope you
will get a great deal of pleasure from your new stove.
As a new owner of a Contura stove, you have secured
a product with timeless design and long service life.
Contura also has a combustion process that is both
environmentally friendly and efficient, for the best heat
production.
Read through these installation instructions carefully
before installation. Read how to best light your stove
in the lighting instructions.
The stove becomes very hot
During operation, certain surfaces of the stove become
very hot and can cause burn injuries if touched. Also, take
heed of the strong heat radiated through the door glass.
Placing flammable material closer than the safe distance
indicated may cause a fire. Smoulder combustion can
cause quick gas ignition with the risk of damage to prop-
erty and personal injury.
WARNING!
Report the installation of a stove to your local
authority.
The owner of the house is personally responsible for
ensuring compliance with the mandatory safety require-
ments and must have the installation approved by a
qualified inspector. Your local chimney sweep must also be
informed of the installation, as this will affect the routines
for regular chimney-sweeping services.

General
This manual contains
instructions about how the
Contura 50 series must be
assembled and installed.
To guarantee the function and safety of the stove we recommend
that it is installed by a professional. Our Contura agents can
recommend a suitable installer.
Instructions for lighting and use are also supplied with the stove.
Read them carefully and keep them safe for future use.
The stove meets with the requirements which allow it to be
connected to a chimney with gas temperatures of 350°C, the
external connection diameter is Ø150 mm. Supply air from the
open air should be used as combustion air.
Building application
Before installing a stove or erecting a chimney it is necessary for
you to apply for planning permission from your local authority. Ask
your local authority for advice regarding building regulations and
the application.
Structural support
Check that the wood joists are strong enough to bear the weight of
the stove and chimney. The stove and chimney can usually be placed
on a normal wooden joist in a single occupancy house if the total
weight does not exceed 400 kg.
Hearth plate
To protect the floor from any embers the stove must be placed on
a hearth plate. If the floor under the stove is flammable, it must be
protected by a non-flammable material which covers at least 300
mm to the front and 100 mm on each side.
The hearth plate can consist of natural stone, concrete or 0.7 mm
metal. As an accessory, the hearth plate is available in painted steel.
Chimney
The stove requires a draft in the chimney of at least –12 Pa. The
draught is affected both by the length and area of the chimney, and
by how well sealed it is. Minimum recommended chimney length is
3.5 m and a suitable cross section area is 150-200 cm² (140-160
mm in diameter). Carefully check that the chimney is sealed and that
there is no leakage around soot hatches and flue connections.
Maximum chimney weight loading on the stove 120 kg.
Note that a flue with sharp bends and horizontal routing reduces
the draught in the chimney. Maximum horizontal flue is 1 m, on the
condition that the vertical flue length is at least 5 m. It must be
possible to sweep the full length of the flue and the soot hatches
must be easily accessible.

Supply of
combustion air
Combustion air can be provided directly via a duct
from outside, or indirectly via a vent in the outer
wall of the room where the stove is to be placed. The
amount of combustion air used for combustion is
approximately 25 m3/h.
Some installation alternatives are shown to the right.
On certain models, C54 and C54T, when supply air is
retrieved via walls behind, there is a knock out for
inserting the combustion air hose, see figure below.
The air duct connection on the stove has an external
diameter of Ø64 mm.
In hot areas the duct should be insulated with 30
mm mineral wool covered with a moisture inhibitor
(plastic). It is important that the lead-in between the
pipe and the wall (or floor) is sealed using jointing
compound. When duct routing for further than 1 m
the pipe diameter must be increased to 100 mm and
a correspondingly larger wall vent must be selected.
A 1 m length of condensation insulated ducting for
combustion air is available as an accessory.

Connection to the chimney
After the stove has been adjusted and positioned according to
the installation distances, connection to the chimney is carried
out. Select one of the following alternatives.
Top connection to the steel flue
Press the start pipe onto the connection, continue the chimney
installation according to the chimney installation instructions.
LEK
Mark out centre for making a hole in
the wall to the flue. Check that the
connection height in the chimney
breast corresponds to the height of
the connection pipe from the stove.
Cut a hole approximately 180 mm in
diameter.
Then cement in a wall connector with
fire proof mortar (not supplied). Let
the mortar dry before the stove is
connected to the chimney.
Rearwards to a masonry chimney
Connection to a masonry chimney can be the back or the top of the stove.
Install the connection pipe
on the connection. Make sure
that the gasket does not work
loose from its position. Caulk
between the connection pipe
and the connector in the wall
using caulking rope. If further
sealing material is required,
heat-resistant sealant may be
used.
Important!
Maximum chimney weight loading
on the stove 120 kg.
