INSTALLATION NOTES.
The Thornhill Range Wood Fired MKII 5-Oven Range Cooker has a single air control, air wash, double glazing, 3 ovens and T3 patented clean burn technology & catalytic converters . Tested to CE12815 standards it is 90.1% efficient, the cleanest burning most efficient wood fired cooker in the world. Carbon particulates in the flue are virtually zero. If the cooker is on an outside wall the air inlet can go straight in the back of the cooker, reducing drafts.
We sell direct from the factory except in a few circumstances. This mean the price can be reduced by 20-25% as there are no middle men. We have a showroom in Canterbury where we can demonstrate the different fuels, but often existing customers near you will show you their cooker, but I only can do this if you are seriously interested in buying a cooker.
There is also a small amount of preparation to get done before we bring your cooker to your kitchen and install it in place.
1st_ Do you have a suitable place for a wood fired cooker? The width of the cooker is 1,490 mm wide and for the depth, please look at Cooker Dimensioned Side View . This is a wood stove and gets hot, especially behind and on the firebox side. That’s OK in a fireplace or free standing. If you want a wooden wall or cupboards on the fire box side then you would need an air gap of 100mm or and air gap of 40mm + 40mm insulation, to protect the cupboard. The side you have the oven is no problem, just leave a 30mm gap to allow air to circulate. There must be a gap of 50mm behind the cooker if against a flammable wall, remember plasterboard is flammable as it is backed with cardboard. A worktop of stone or granite can of course go right up to the cooker top. Just leave a couple of mm either side to allow for expansion. Please email us to discuss any siting problems like this. Note, we make the cooker with the fire box on the left or the right hand side.
2nd- Do you have a suitable chimney there. You can use a brick built or masonry chimney or have a ‘chimney’ constructed out of ‘twin wall’ flue pipe, (click for and example supplier). Best in the UK to got to www.HETAS.co.uk where you can enter your postcode and get a list of chimney technician in your area. They will be happy to to advise and quotes to line an existing or supply and fit a twin wall system. The internal diameter of the flue is 6 inches or 150 mm, and it must be able to withstand 600 C. It is a wood burner after all.
3rd- Floor. The cooker should stand on a non-flammable base. If you have a wooden floor you can lay a slab of stone, tiles or concrete, it should be over 3/4 inch or 20 mm.
4th-Electrics. The 2 electric ovens and hob require a 40 amp supply, this can be 220-240V single phase or 3X16 amp supply common in Europe. We can wire the cooker up to you local conditions. Please discuss this with a local electrician.
Its as simple as that, but if you have any problems or questions email us at info@trcookers.co.uk , we can answer questions and send further diagrams and links if required.

Now the very difficult bit WHAT COLOUR?. There is a very large choice, but if you email us your name and postal address we can send you 3 or 4 sample swatches as in the pictures. They are cast iron so quite heavy and I ask you to keep them till we deliver your cooker and then we collect them back.
The cooker come in one piece, factory tested weighing about 650 Kg. So please advise any potential delivery problems, eg. flights of steps, tight corners or very narrow doors.
