User Information

The Clock Sudbury CF gas stove has been designed and tested for use in Great Britain. As manufacturers and suppliers of heating products, we take every reasonably practicable care that these products are designed and constructed to meet general safety requirements when properly used and installed. Our products are thoroughly tested and examined before despatch.
Any alteration that is not approved by the appliance manufacturer could invalidate the approval of the appliance, operation of the warranty and could affect your statutory rights.

This appliance must be installed by a suitably qualified installer , i.e. Gas Safe registered, in  accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation And Use) Regulations, The Building Regulations (or The  Building Regulations (Scotland) or The Building Regulations (Northern Ireland)) and the current I.E.E.  Wiring Regulations, if appropriate. Failure to install the appliance correctly could lead to prosecution.

  • The Clock Sudbury CF gas stove incorporates a single gas control, which selects ignition pilot, and  main burner low and high settings.  
  • The Clock Sudbury CF gas stove incorporates a safety device in the form of an TTB System, which  constantly monitors carbon monoxide if it goes into the room and will cause the fire to switch off if  the CO level increases, for instance due to insufficient ventilation or a blocked flue. If this regularly  occurs do not attempt to relight the appliance until a qualified engineer has checked it; the problem  may not be due to lack of air or a defective flue.
Important Information
  • For clearance distances to combustible and non-combustible materials see page 10 of this booklet.
  • The appliance is for use on Natural Gas (G20 @ 20mbar) only. 
  • The chimney or flue (unless new or previously used with a gas appliance) shall be swept before  installation if it has been used for solid fuel. 
  • The stove MUST NOT be used with the glass safety screen removed or if it is damaged or cracked.
  • The fire must never be operated with the door open. 
  • During initial firing, an odour may be evident. This is the starch binder used during the manufacture  of the fibre components of the fire, and there are no harmful effects produced.
  •  During the normal operation of the fire some dulling and slight discolouration may appear inside  the firebox and on some parts of the fuel bed. This is quite normal and adds to the realistic  appearance of the appliance. However, if excessive black staining does occur it may be due to the  fuel bed being incorrectly laid. This should be checked prior to contacting a service engineer.
  •  Like all appliances incorporating an aerated burner a low frequency noise may be heard,  particularly on the low setting. This is quite normal and does not affect the operation of the stove.
  • Care must be taken to prevent any damage to surrounding soft furnishing or decoration. Many embossed vinyl wall coverings may become discoloured if placed too close to the appliance. Combustible materials, such as wall panelling or wallpaper, must be removed from behind the fire.
  •  It is advised that this stove is serviced annually as it is more likely to provide trouble-free operation.
  •  The only user removable parts are the refractory fire bed components and the glass door panel.

The efficiency of this appliance has been measured as specified in BS EN 613:2001 and the result is 78%. The gross calorific value of the fuel has been used for this efficiency calculation. Intertek have certified the test data from which it has been calculated. The efficiency value may be used in the UK Government’s Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) for energy rating of dwellings.

General operation of remote-control handset

Operating the Appliance

The full lighting procedure for slide control:

  1. The Gas Control knob protrudes through the bottom front of the stove.  

  2. Push knob in as far as possible on gas control, until a click is heard.
    The knob will stop at the position and a spark should be seen at the tip of the ignition probe. At the same time the pilot flame should light.
    KEEP THE KNOB PRESSED IN FOR 20 SECONDS.
    Should the pilot fail to light, wait three minutes before repeating the procedure.

  3. After lighting the pilot flame, the control knob should be allowed to spring out slightly. When the pilot light is established, withdraw the shaft from the body to minimum flow position.

  4. Flow then may be adjusted up to the full flow position.

  5. To turn the fire off, the knob is pulled out further from the HIGH position against a spring load  position to the off position to close the thermos-electric valve. 

Important Information ****

  • If the fire goes out for any reason, or it is turned off and is to be turned on again, it is necessary to  wait three minutes before attempting to re-light.  
  • The spillage monitoring system will operate if the flue does not work or becomes blocked. 
  • If the fire repeatedly goes out during use, this may be due to lack of ventilation or a blocked flue.  Expert advice should be obtained.  
  • Do not use the fire with the glass safety screen removed, or if the glass is cracked.
  • The Allen bolt must be removed from the right-hand side of the stove before attempting to open  the door, to avoid damage to the handle mechanism.

Log Fuel Bed Layout

String wire wool out over the base of the burner and then place logs as shown in the pictures below.

Cleaning

Before you clean any part of the stove ensure that the appliance is turned off and cold.
Black Painted Surfaces
These surfaces should be dusted regularly, and any marks removed with a soft cloth. Abrasive, chemical cleaner or water should never be used.

Pilot Assembly
In some instances, you may experience ignition problems even when the appliance is new. This may be due to the aeration hole in the pilot body (see diagram) being partially blocked with carpet fibres, decorating dust, pet hairs or other foreign matter.
The pilot is located on the right-hand side of the appliance. To gain access to the pilot, remove the Gas Control knob by loosening the screws, remove the Allen bolt on the door handle and open the door. The log fuel bed will need to be removed for access around the pilot.

The pilot is located on the right-hand side of the appliance. To gain  access to the pilot, remove the Gas Control knob by loosening the  screws, remove the Allen bolt on the door handle and open the door.

The log fuel bed will need to be removed for access around the pilot.

Take care when cleaning in this area so as not to damage the pilot assembly. Any debris in or around the aeration hole can usually be drawn out using the nozzle of a vacuum  cleaner around the top of the pilot assembly. It is advisable not to blow the debris into the hole or  pilot assembly as this may cause more of a restriction and not rectify the problem.

Glass Cleaning

We recommend 00 grade wire wool to clean the glass.

To access the inside of the glass, remove the Allen bolt on the door handle and open the door. When finished, close the door, insert the Allen bolt and tighten back up.

The appliance must not be used if the glass panel is missing or damaged.

The glass may discolour quickly when first installed, and it should be cleaned. This is due to the  burning off process of the refractory shapes.

Fuel Bed Cleaning

Use only the fuel bed components provided and no additional parts must be added. Incorrect positioning of the components could result in the staining of the glass panel. The components are delicate, and they should be handled with great care.

The loose log shapes may be removed for cleaning.

They can be brushed very gently with a soft brush to remove dust or any deposits. A vacuum cleaner may only be used after the loose log shapes and vermiculite have been removed.

Care should be taken to avoid damage to the log shapes as they are a delicate surface and should  not be wiped or rubbed.

Refer to the ‘Health & Safety Notice’ on page 2 before cleaning or replacing any refractory material.

Regulations and Warnings

  • This appliance must only be installed in Great Britain.
  • The appliance is suitable for use on Natural Gas (G20 @ 20mbar) only.

The hearth must be  level and extend outwards all around the appliance base. It must have a minimum thickness of  12mm and have a clearly defined edge (change of level) to discourage placing of any combustible  materials on or partially over it. 
  • Dampers or register plates must not restrict any of the above flues. The flue must only service a  single appliance and not have any branches or traps, which may impede the natural draught. If a  terminal is fitted it must be suitable for the purpose.
  • Any debris from the chimney or flue should be removed. Make sure the fire has cooled beforehand.

Appliance Data

Distance to materials

It is strongly recommended that any furniture or other combustible materials are kept at least 900mm clear from the front of the stove. Due to the fact that combustible shelves, timber fireplaces and beams have potentially thousands of possible configurations in conjunction with stoves outset or inserted partially or fully into chambers, it is not possible to give firm guidance on dimensions to these features. As a guideline, materials that are in line of sight’ to the stove are more likely to overheat due to direct radiation from the stove body than materials that are not inline of sight’ (e.g. with stove fully inside a chamber). Materials above the stove are more likely to overheat than materials alongside or below. A guideline limiting temperature for solid timber (not surface finishes) is approximately 80-85C with a normal ambient room temperature. Temperatures of combustible materials can be substantially lowered with a simple heat shield constructed of a non- combustible material and small air gap between the shield and combustible material.

Clearance to Shelf

Minimum clearance from hearth to underside of combustible shelf should be 900mm.

Clearance to Sides of Fire

Minimum width between vertical sides of combustible surround and the sides of the stove should  not be less than 300mm, provided the fire is central to the surround and the sides do not project  more than 50mm. When vertical side forward projection is increased by 12.5 mm, add 50 mm to the  inside width of the surround.

Distances from non-combustible materials

  • The stove can be recessed in a suitably sized non-combustible fireplace, but a permanent free air  gap of at least 50mm must be left around the sides and top and at least 50mm at the back of the  stove to obtain reasonable heat output. This is also needed for access to the stove for removal and  maintenance. A clearance of 150mm will give a better heat output.
  • When installing the Clock Sudbury CF gas stove, carefully consider where the appliance is to be  sited as a spillage test will need to be carried out at the draught diverter at the rear of the stove.
  •  When siting into an Inglenook, it is important to access the rear of the appliance, either from the  top or sides of the stove, so a spillage test can be witnessed. A small mirror may be required.
  •  A minimum of 50mm needs to be left between the rear of the stove and the closure plate or back  wall for correct operation of the stove. This will be attained when the two stand-off brackets are  attached at the bottom rear of stove.

To Install the Appliance

CHECKING THE FLUE AND FIRE OPENING

  • Check that the chimney conforms to the required specifications as previously stated. Examine the condition and carry out any remedial work including removing any debris from the base.
  •  The chimney or flue (unless new or previously used with a gas appliance) should be swept prior to the installation if it has been used for solid fuel. 
  • Prior to installing the appliance, a smoke test (using a smoke bomb) should be carried out to check that satisfactory smoke clearance has been established. 

If all the smoke is not drawn into the flue, pre-heat the flue with a blowtorch or similar and re-check.  If there is any uncertainty examine for the cause and, if necessary, seek expert advice.

No combustible material should be fitted inside the fireplace opening.

GAS SUPPLY ROUTING

Use rigid or semi–rigid tube to connect the supply.

Determine the gas supply pipe route to the appliance before installing the stove.

CONNECTING THE GAS SUPPLY

The gas connection is underneath the stove towards the front on the right-hand side. The burner tray inlet pipe drops down through the stove and can be connected there. The gas supply pipe can be routed either from the sides or rear.

Checking Operation of Fire

CHECKING FOR COMBUSTION PRODUCTS CLEARANCE IMPORTANT: The smoke test must be carried out with the fire starting from cold.

  • Light the fire and leave at maximum input.
  • Close all the doors and windows.
  • After five minutes fit the smoke match in a holder and position as illustrated with the head of the match just inside the test opening.
  • Run the match along the bottom edge of the draught diverter. All smoke must be drawn into the test opening if the clearance is satisfactory.
  • If spillage occurs wait a further five minutes and repeat the test.
  • Repeat the test with doors open and with any extractor fans in other rooms in operation.
  • If spillage is detected the cause must be discovered and the fault corrected. If the fault cannot be corrected, disconnect the fire from the gas supply and seek expert advice. Spillage can be caused by a restriction in the flue system, down draught or insufficient ventilation into the room where the fire is installed.

Maintenance

GENERAL

  • To ensure the safe and correct operation of the appliance, servicing should be carried out annually  by a competent person such as a Gas Safe registered person in accordance with relevant regulations. 
  •  Before commencing any service or replacement of parts, turn off the gas supply to the fire. After servicing check for gas soundness. 
  • It is important to check the chimney or flue annually to ensure clearance of combustion products.
  •  At least once a year check for debris in the catchment area behind the fire and in the flue way.
  • If soot has accumulated check to establish cause. Rectify and clean flue or chimney accordingly.
