Mendip Christon 750 Freestanding


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

The wife has finally relented and allowed me to purchase a Wood Burner as we currently have an open fire that really doesnt provide any heat, I have purchased a Mendip Christon 750 for an amazing price (it was a buy it now or miss out kind of deal) and am going to start work on opening up the fireplace so a Hetas fitter can come in and drop the liner and and connect the flue to the stove.

 

Just wondered if anyone has experience of these stoves, i must admit the dimensions are going to be tight, the breast total is 1420mm wide so i will be having chimney legs of 250mm and a 75mm gap around the stove(Mendip states 50mm min, 100mm is perfect), its a full convection stove with outer casing so distance to combustables is only 100mm.

 

Only other worry is that it runs at 8.7 kw nominal and running it full pelt will be far to much for the room, so planned to run it hot but with limited amounts of logs to keep burn times and heat down, our house is incredibly leaky so feel that it wont overpower the room size and i am also going to run the closed combustion pipe below the hearth and into the suspended floor for clean air so it will not be pulling air in from inside the house.

 

Just wanted more experienced peoples view on this if in theory the above sounds right, or have i missed something.

 

EDIT: its a 2017 model but has never been fired and has the SIA Eco Ready sticking on it but i am not sure it has the modification to limit the air draw to 50%. Will that be an issue?

 

Cheers,

Bob
