Dovre 350 Cast Iron Cleanburn Wood Stove

Installation and Operating Manual

These instructions should be read

carefully and saved by the

user for future reference

We would like to thank you for purchasing a Dovre
stove and we trust that it will provide you with many
years of useful service.

At Dovre we have been producing cast iron stoves for
over 60 years and we strive to ensure that our products
meet with the highest level of performance, efficiency,
safety and quality. So much so that we guarantee all
Dovre body castings for 10 years.

Owning a stove might be a new experience for you.
Therefore, to ensure that you get the best performance
from your new Dovre, do please take a little time to read
through this manual.

The 350 CB is a specially designed stove for burning
wood with clean emissions. It is essential that when
wood is used, it is well seasoned for a minimum of 2
years and has maximum moisture content of 20%. If
unseasoned wood is used, heat outputs will not be
obtained and serious damage will occur in the chimney
and flueways.

The dimensions of your new stove are illustrated in fig.

1. Be careful to ensure that your fireplace is going to
accept the appliance and that you have allowed for at
least 225mm of hearth space in front of the stove.

WE DO RECOMMEND THAT WHEREVER POSSIBLE,
YOUR DOVRE IS FITTED BY AN EXPERIENCED
INSTALLER ACCUSTOMED TO THE INSTALLATION
OF CLASS 1 SOLID FUEL BURNING APPLIANCES.

If you are unsure about any aspect of the installation or
operation procedures, your Dovre dealer will be pleased
to help.

It is important that the Installation is carried out in
compliance with current Building Regulations.

Your Dovre 350 CB is constructed from high-grade quality cast
iron and is therefore not light in weight. We recommend that two
people are available to handle the unit.

GETTING THE BEST FROM YOUR DOVRE 250

There are 4 golden rules to follow:

USE GOOD FUEL - NEVER BURN UNSEASONED OR DAMP
WOOD

YOU MUST HAVE A GOOD CHIMNEY DRAUGHT - NEVER
USE YOUR DOVRE STOVE WITH A POOR CHIMNEY

AVOID OPERATING THE STOVE FOR LONG PERIODS ON
CONTINUOUS LOW TEMPERATURE

NEVER USE SOLID FUEL ON YOUR DOVRE 350CB

The location in which your stove is to be installed will of course
depend on the chimney available. If you do not have a chimney,
there are a number of prefabricated flue systems available and
your Dovre Dealer will be pleased to offer guidance on the subject.

Building Regulations must be observed when considering the
location of your Dovre. More precise information can be found
later in this manual but it is important to ensure that a suitable
hearth, complying with Building Regulations, is available.

NEVER ALLOW A MECHANICAL AIR EXTRACTOR TO BE USED
IN THE ROOM OR ADJOINING ROOMS AS THIS COULD CAUSE
THE APPLIANCE TO EMIT SMOKE INTO THE ROOM.

LOCATION FOR THE INSTALLATION

It is essential that an access point for cleaning the chimney
be incorporated in the installation. This can normally be
carried out by fitting an external soot door or access plate
in the flue pipe. Access for rear flue connections can be
made using a tee section soot trap at the base of the flue
pipe. See fig.3 below.

Your 350CB is equipped with a special top baffle plate
designed to direct pre-heated secondary combustion air. It
is essential that access be allowed for cleaning the topside
of the baffle.
