Country
The Charnwood Country collection is our well established range of traditional wood and multi-fuel burning appliances. The single door Country 4 has gained an almost cult following, whilst the distinct double angled doors, of the other Country models, has established this range as a true classic. As with all the stoves in this brochure the Country range incorporates superb clean-burn technology for ultra efficient and eco-friendly home heating There is a stove in this range for virtually every home heating requirement; from a small room heating stove to a full central heating boiler model. The Country collection is essentially a range of wood-burning stoves (with the exception of the boiler models which are true multi-fuel stoves). However we do offer an optional reciprocating grate (pictured above). This is an easily fitted, drop in system that converts a Country wood-burner into a multi-fuel stove should you wish to burn coal or smokeless fuels. When installed, solid fuel will burn more efficiently by allowing the air to flow under the fire bed. It's neat, external riddling action and ash pan ensure easy cleaning and keep mess to a minimum. The Country 4 is the smallest model in the wood & multi-fuel room heating collection, yet still incorporates the ingenious features of the larger stoves. It is a neat, sturdy, yet graceful little fire and, with an output of up to 4kW, still exudes a handsome amount of heat. The single door gives a complete and clear view of the fire and features a spinning primary air wheel for optimum control over the burning rate. In spite of its size, the Country 4 takes a decent sized log length of 330mm (13") making it a very popular choice in the small stove market. An optional back The Country 6 produces a stunning 6kW of heat. Being the next step up within the Country collection it features large, twin angled doors to optimise the view of the fire which, when desired, can be folded back against the stove so as to enjoy an open fire. The Country 6 has a robust construction featuring a brick lined fire box with the ability to burn 380mm (15") logs. The detachable tool handle that operates the doors ensures maximum safety. Once again it has the option of a reciprocating grate and a small back-boiler to provide domestic hot water or to heat around two radiators. This model also comes with the option of a clip-on shelf as well as a slide-on canopy for a very different look altogether. Yet again the stove is finished with touches of solid brass and is available in a choice of eight shades of colour. The Country 8 has always been a very popular choice of stove, delivering up to 8kW of heat to the room. Once again it has large twin doors that fold back against the stove and comes complete with a fixed front shelf. All the standard features apply: air wash, clean burn technology and brick firebox lining, as well as an optional canopy to transform its looks, riddling grate, back-boiler and choice of colours (see page 34). This is a best selling stove and, as many existing customers will tell you, an excellent investment to the home. Come back to embracing warmth. The Country 12 is the largest in our Country room heater range. With a huge output of 12kW it is well suited to a larger room or an open plan area. Yet again it blazes with superb, clean-burn, efficiency coupled with minimum mess, leaving your home thoroughly warmed. It takes a large log size of up to 430mm (17"). The options of a slide-on canopy, back-boiler, drop-in riddling grate and choice of colours (see page 34) all apply. Once again it is built from a substantial combination of the best materials and enhanced with touches of solid brass. Charnwood's Country Boiler range is designed specifically for those wishing to run a full central heating system. The benefits of a 'real fired' central heating system as opposed to gas, electric or oil are numerous: the constant heat source, elimination of condensation and the continual air changes caused by a 'breathing' heating appliance, are far more beneficial to health and well-being than its counterparts. The high efficiency of these boilers also offers significant environmental benefits. For example where a 50/50 mixture of wood and coal is burned the net CO2 emissions can be reduced to less than an equivalent gas, electric or oil boiler.* Increase the percentage of wood and the savings are even greater. In practical terms this means that by burning less than one averaged sized log basket of wood plus a mere 6.3 kgs of anthracite a day, you can provide heating for a 3 bedroom house with less CO2 emissions than a gas condensing boiler. The boilers within these three models are an integral part of the stove built for maximum efficiency and longevity and are fully pressure tested. As with all the wood and multi-fuel burning models in this brochure, the airwash will ensure superb clean-burning and a clear view of the fire at all times regardless of what fuels are burnt. The Country Boiler Range was specifically designed, from beginning to end, as a series of central heating appliances making them unrivalled in their field. THE COUNTRY 8b has identical looks and functions to that of the Country 8, its only difference being its integral wrap around boiler. Its 7kW output to the boiler is sufficient to heat the domestic hot water plus around 4 radiators. In addition to this it delivers a comfortable 2.5kW to the room. A reciprocating grate, for burning solid fuel, and an optional slide-on canopy, are also available. THE COUNTRY 16b is our brand new fully fledged central heating boiler. Available in both wood-burning and multi-fuel versions it is EN 13240 approved. |

The Charnwood SLX The SLX has been carefully designed to get the very best out of the fuel that is burnt. This can be wood, coal, smokeless fuel, briquettes or even peat. All these fuels can be burnt at optimum efficiency, on the well-proven Charnwood multi-fuel grate. The SLX is available as either an inset or freestanding stove in two sizes. The SLX 20 is purely for room heating delivering up to 5.4kW of heat. It is fully controllable with a built in thermostat to regulate the heat output to the room. Both the inset and freestanding models come with the option of a small add-in-boiler to heat the domestic hot water. The SLX 45 has a thermostatically controlled, integral boiler that delivers a heat output sufficient to power 8-9 radiators and ample hot water. Because it is fitted with a water temperature sensitive thermostat, heating controls (such as the Charnwood Solid Fuel Central Heating Control System) can be fitted, to give heat precisely when and where it is needed. |

Gas & Electric Stoves The stoves featured in this brochure are multi-fuel appliances capable of burning wood or coal. For some people we recognise that this is not always the most practical option and so for these folk we offer a small but excellent range of gas and electric stoves. These stoves are built to the same specification as our multi-fuel stoves giving you the look and the feel of the real thing.

Bodj Bodj is a fair trade programme exclusive to Charnwood stoves. The initiative sellshandmade terracotta tiles and a selection of fireside accessories manufactured by a number of small developing businesses in Cambodia, South East Asia. We currently work alongside and support 3 projects each producing unique products using traditional techniques and from ecologically and locally sourced materials. Our aim is to make a difference to these communities: to actively encourage and celebrate their cultural skills whilst ensuring fair wages and responsible trading practices. The Bodj fair trade basket ware initiative supports a number of basket weaving projects on the outskirts of Phnom Penh and in the Cambodian province of Kratie. A mixture of indigenous materials are used from bamboo and rattan to rush and water hyacinth. Age old weaving techniques are used to create a variety of traditional and adapted designs including log baskets and brushes. Bodj fair trade ironwork products are made by an ironworking initiative based in Phnom Penh. The project trains up a number of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds with the design and fabrication overseen by a British design engineer. Traditional skills are mixed with Khmer inspired designs to create a variety of log holders and companion sets. |

Tile Project The Bodj fair trade flooring and hearth project supports a group of 5 families living on the banks of the Mekong river just outside Phnom Penh. These terracotta tiles are entirely handmade using clay dug from the banks of the river, mixed with the ashes of rice husk and then fired out on the open dunes using gleaned brushwood, coconut husk and rice straw. Unlike standard kiln firing this firing technique imparts different colours and unique markings to each tile. A portion of the tiles (approx. 1 in 6) also feature natural impressions of local flora & fauna making for a stunning kitchen floor or charming and unique fire hearth. With Bodj tiles you can be assured that each floor or hearth becomes a unique work of art in its own right. One with a history, one full of character and one that gets richer with age. Most importantly you'll know that through purchasing these tiles you will be impacting a community of people, fairly, and be helping to keep local and cultural traditions alive. PLEASE NOTE: All the Bodj projects are kept deliberately small-scale with working practices within the communities carefully monitored so as not to disturb the eco-system in which the craftsmen and women live. The production processes of many of the products are also dictated by monsoons therefore availibility is sometimes limited.
