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.
NOTE! 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.

Installation by authorised
technician
This manual contains instructions about
how the stoves must be assembled and
installed. To ensure the function and
safety of the stove, we recommend
that the installation is carried out by an
authorised technician. Contact one of
our dealers who can recommend suitable
fitters.
Building permission
These main instructions may give
guidance which would contravene national
building regulations. Please refer to
supplementary instructions or ask your
local authority for advice regarding
building regulations.
Before installing a stove or erecting a
chimney it is necessary for you to make
a building application permission to your
local authority.
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.
Floor plate
Due to the risk of falling embers, a
flammable floor must be protected by
a hearth plate. It must extend 300 mm
in front of the stove and 100 mm on
each side of the stove, or have a 200 mm
extension on each side of the opening.
The hearth plate can consist of natural
stone, concrete, metal plate or glass.
A painted metal or glass hearth plate
is available as an accessory for these
models.

INSTALLATION DISTANCES
Place the stove on the hearth plate
and check that the installation
distances are not less than those
that are given in the figures below.
The minimum distance in front of the
stove opening to combustible parts
of the building or interior decoration
must be at least 1 m.
When top connecting a steel flue,
please refer to the particular
manufacturer's installation
instructions. Observe the safety
distance to combustible material
that the steel flue requires.

Knockout
To insert the combustion air hose, tap out the knockout from the
floor panel and leg using a hammer, remember to protect the
floor.
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 placed. The amount of combustion air
that is used for combustion is approx. 25 m3/h.
Some installation alternatives are shown to the right.
The air duct connector on the stove has an external diam-
eter of Ø64 mm.
In hot areas, the duct has to be insulated with 30 mm
mineral wool covered with a moisture barrier (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 combus-
tion air is available as an accessory.

SELF-CLOSING DOOR
Heat deflector
The heat deflector is removed by lifting the front edge and
then pulling it out slightly. Lower it so that it is below the
insert and then withdraw it. Assembly takes place in the
reverse order. Ensure that the rear lugs are secured in the
slits on the upper leg as illustrated above.
Self-closing door
The stove is equipped with a spring to close the door auto-
matically. The spring is situated above the heat deflector.
The closing force of the hatch can be adjusted by moving
the spring between the three notches on the lever. After
adjustment, the heat deflector must be reinstalled. The an-
gle of the stove also affects the closing force of the spring.
If the spring force seems weak despite the spring being
mounted at the end of the lever, the angle of the stove
should be checked.

GB
72 CHIMNEY
Rear connection to a masonry chimney
The back panel must be installed before the stove is connected at
the rear.
Connection to chimney
Make sure that the connector
gasket does not work loose when the
connection pipe is placed on the con-
nector. If further sealing material is
required, heat-resistant sealant may
be used.
!
• The stove meets the requirements for connecting to chimneys
dimensioned for flue gas temperatures of 350°C.
• The external diameter of the connection sleeve is 150 mm.
• The stove requires a draft in the chimney of at least –12 Pa. The
draft is affected both by the length and area of the chimney,
and by how well sealed it is. The minimum recommended chimney
length is 3.5 m and suitable cross-sectional area is 150-200 cm²
(140-160 mm in diameter).
• A flue with sharp bends and horizontal routing reduces the
draught in the chimney. The 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 doors must be easily accessible.
• Carefully check that the chimney is sealed and that there is no
leakage around soot doors and flue connections.

CHIMNEY
Top connection to the chimney
The hot air grille must be installed before chimney top
connection.
Sweeping
When sweeping, the smoke baffle must be removed; on the
Contura 30 series this can be done by lifting the smoke baffle
and removing the side piece. Lift the smoke baffle out and
remove the remaining sections. Handle the parts with care.

The aluminium
model
Important: Remove the
protective plastic from along
the bent edge before install-
ing the back panel.
Remove the protective plas-
tic when the stove is assembled. It is important to remove
all the protective plastic.
Ensure that your hands are clean to avoid leaving marks on
the aluminium sides.
Cleaning
Cleaning must always be carried out with care and on cold
panels. Wipe with a damp cloth and dishwashing detergent
and wipe dry using a clean and dry cotton cloth. For tougher
marks, stainless steel cleaning agent can be used.
Rating plate
Place the rating plates on the lower heat deflector
as illustrated. On the model with the drawer, the
type plates can be mounted inside the drawer.
