Mendip 5 MK2 Ash Pan

This ash pan is a genuine replacement part for the Mendip 5 MK2 wood-burning stove, confirmed against Eurostove's parts database as the correct v2 pan for this model (stock code M10050-03-00-99-01, supplier part 700035). The ash pan is a removable tray fitted beneath the grate that collects the ash produced as fuel burns, allowing it to be emptied without disturbing the fire or spreading ash around the hearth. A pan that's cracked, warped, or corroded can let ash spill through into the space below the stove, and if ash builds up too high because the pan can't be emptied properly, it can restrict the airflow reaching the underside of the fire, reducing combustion efficiency. Because the pan sits directly beneath the fire and is handled regularly during cleaning, it's a component that naturally wears over time through heat exposure and physical use. This replacement weighs approximately 1kg and is manufactured to the exact dimensions of the original Mendip 5 MK2 pan, so it slides into place in the same way as the part it replaces, with no fixings to worry about. Regularly emptying the ash pan - ideally before it fills completely - helps maintain efficient airflow and reduces strain on the surrounding firebox components.
