This is a genuine rear brick pair for the Loxton and Churchill 6kW stove, Mk1 model built before August 2012, supplied by Eurostove.
- Fits: Loxton and Churchill 6kW stove, Mk1 model, built before August 2012
- Shared part: the same rear brick used across the 5kW, 6kW and 8kW Mk1 range
- Position: back wall of the firebox
Rear bricks form part of the protective firebox lining that keeps the fire from making direct contact with the steel or cast iron casing, while reflecting heat forward into the firebox rather than letting it escape through the back of the stove, which helps maintain an efficient burning temperature. Ordinary heat-cycling over years of use causes bricks to gradually crack, chip or thin out, and once that wear is visible it's worth replacing the pair rather than continuing to run the stove with a compromised rear lining; a gap here allows flame to reach the body directly, risking overheating and reduced appliance life.
As firebox dimensions are specific to each stove output and build, this pair is matched precisely to the pre-August 2012 6kW Mk1 Loxton/Churchill build rather than the 5kW or 8kW versions or later marks of the 6kW. If you're not certain which mark and output your stove is, check the data plate on the appliance or contact Eurostove to confirm before ordering, so you get the correct size the first time.
If you're unsure whether this is the right part for your stove, email info@eurostove.co.uk before ordering and we'll help confirm.
