Review of Charnwood C 5 stove
Messy Charnwood
We bought the Charnwood c5 in November and have been burning wood and the correct type of coal but it is very messy - every time you open the door a load of ash spills onto the hearth. Are we doing something wrong as I just didn't expect such a mess and such a load of dust generated in the room?
Stove expert replied: It may pay you to try a different type of fuel as some produce far more ash than others. Once you have put the fuel into the stove, move it towards the back so that the ash produced is kept away from the door. Once you have riddles to stove leave the ash to settle before enptying the ashpan and this will minimze ash particles in the room when you open the door.
