This is a genuine side brick pair for the Loxton and Churchill 5kW stove, Mk1 model built before August 2012, supplied by Eurostove.
- Fits: Loxton and Churchill 5kW stove, Mk1 model, built before August 2012
- Position: one brick fits each side wall of the firebox
- Weight: approximately 4kg for the pair
- Confirmed via Eurostove's stock records as two matching side bricks
Side bricks do the same essential job as the rest of the firebox lining: they stop the fire from making direct contact with the steel or cast iron casing, and they reflect heat back into the firebox instead of letting it dissipate through the sides of the stove, which helps the appliance burn more efficiently and reach a proper working temperature. Because they sit close to the door and are handled whenever fuel is loaded, side bricks can chip or crack from routine knocks in addition to normal heat-related wear. Once cracks appear or a brick starts to crumble, it's worth replacing the pair rather than waiting for a full failure, since a gap in the side lining allows flame to reach the body directly and can lead to overheating over time.
As firebox sizes differ between stove models and marks, this pair is sized specifically for the pre-August 2012 5kW Mk1 Loxton/Churchill build. Check the data plate on your stove, or ask Eurostove to confirm, if you're unsure which mark you have before ordering.
