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 combustion 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.
NOTE!
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
requirements and must have the installation approved by
a qualified inspector. Your local chimney sweep must also
be informed about the installation as this will affect the
routines for regular chimney-sweeping services.
WARNING!
The stove becomes very hot.
During operation, certain surfaces of the stove become
very hot and can cause burn injury if touched. Be aware
of the strong heat radiated through the hatch glass.
Placing flammable material closer than the safe distance
indicated may cause a fire. Smouldering can cause quick
gas ignition with the risk of damage to property and
personal injury.

FACT S
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.

Chimney
Note! The stove installation and connection
to a chimney must be accomplished with
the current edition of Building Regulations.
We recommend that you consult a local
chimney sweep before the installation
to make sure that the chimney is in good
condition.
The stove is type approved and must be
connected to a chimney dimensioned
for at least 350°C. The connector on
the appliance is suitable for pipes with
diameter of 125 mm.
A flexible flue liner or steel flue
certified for use with solid fuel is highly
recommended. The stove requires a
draught 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 120-175 cm² (125150 mm in diameter). Carefully check that
the chimney is sealed and that there is
no leakage around soot hatches and flue
connections.
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.
General
In this manual you will find instructions
about how your Contura i4 shall be
installed. Before you start the installation
it is important that you read this
instruction carefully and fully understand
the requirements. All European, national
and local standards and regulations needs
to be fulfilled when the appliance are
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.
The room or space containing a stove shall
have a permanent air supply sufficent to
ensure proper combustion, to determine
correct amount of air supply use current
edition of Building Regulations.
Remember to use only for the appliance
recommended fuel as wood logs
or smokeless fuel as anthracite or
manufactured smokeless fuel briquettes.
Do not ever burn bituminous coal, “petrocoke” or other petroleum based fuels!

When recessing the insert, adjacent walls that are not classed as fire walls or are considered unsuitable for heat loads must be protected
by non-combustible material according to the specification below.
All joints on the non-combustible material must be sealed using the manufacture’s recommended method. The area between the insert
and the recess must be ventilated according to the specification/dimension.
When top connecting a steel flue please refer to the relevant manufacturer’s installation instructions. Observe the safety distances to
combustible material that steel flues require. Heat radiation from the hatch is strong and is why combustible material must not be placed
closer than 1 m in front of the hatch. When recessing, building material must not be in direct contact with the insert due to the thermal
expansion of the insert.
Material requirements
The building material must not be combustible.
The thermal conductivity coefficient
λ may be a maximum of 0.14 W/mK.
The thickness of the building material must always be at least 100 mm.
In cases where the building material’s insulation properties are given as a U-Value, this must be a maximum of 1.4 W/ m²K.
List of suitable materials:
Aerated concrete:
λ =0.12-0.14
Vermiculite:
λ =0.12-0.14
Calcium silicate: λ =0,09
Recessing the insert
Heat shield
If the recess is to extend to the ceiling, a heat shield must be made above the convection exhaust. This is to prevent hot air collecting in
the recess closest to the ceiling. The seal must a maximum of 100 mm above the convection exhaust’s upper edge and must be made up
of 20 mm thick building boards made of calcium silicate or a panel with at least a 50 mm thickness of rock wool on top.
Convection air
The convection air ventilates the surround, cools the inser t and transports the hot air out into the room. The total sum of the effective
cross section area up and down must not be less than the stated values. The air intake must be positioned somewhere between the floor
and the bottom of the insert, up to or on the sides of the recess. The vent must be positioned above the insert’s highest point up to or to
the sides of the recess.
Observe the minimum distance up to the ceiling.
Convection air in: 200 cm²
Convection air out: 200 cm²
Note that building regulations apply regarding the area below and in front of the insert, see section ”Hearth plate” below.
Load bearing base
Ensure that the bottom of the convection box is installed on a loadbearing with the strength to support the weight of the insert and the
chimney. The insert can be loaded maximum 100 kg of chimney. The load bearing must not prevent the convection air ventilate the area
between the insert and recsess.
Hearth 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, consult the Building regulations.

Hearth dimensions
The appliance must stand on a constructional hearth which meet
the building regulations and has minimum dimension as shown in
the diagram beside. Always check that the building has enough
bearing capacity for the heart, stove and chimney. The stove can
be loaded with maximum 100 kg of chimney.

Installation in Builders opening
Supply of combustion air
When a stove is installed in a room, the demand for air supply to
the room increases. Air can be provided indirectly via a vent in the
outer wall or via a duct from the outside that is connected to the
stove. The amount of air needed for combustion is approximatly
20m³/h.
If the insert will be used with supply air connector (accessory)
and outside air-supply kit (accessory) then prepare the convection
box by open the lid where the air supply hose will enter, from side
or back. Make the supply air connector installation as the flue pipe
is connected to the convection box.
