Ash Pan - Mendip 8 Mk.1

This ash pan is a genuine replacement part for the Mendip 8 Mk.1 wood-burning stove, confirmed against Eurostove's parts database as the correct v1 pan for this specific model version (stock code M10080-03-00-99-00, supplier part 700456). Fitted beneath the grate, the ash pan is a removable tray that collects ash as it falls through the fire bed, letting you empty it without disturbing the burning fuel or scattering ash around the hearth. It's worth noting that Mendip 8 stoves were produced in more than one version - this pan matches the Mk.1 dimensions specifically, and a separate Mk.2 version (Eurostove stock code M10080-03-00-99-01) is available for later production models, so check which version your stove is before ordering if you're unsure. A cracked, corroded, or warped ash pan can allow ash to fall through into the space beneath the stove, and if ash isn't cleared regularly because the pan is damaged, it can build up and restrict the airflow reaching the underside of the fire, reducing how efficiently the stove burns. This replacement is manufactured to the same dimensions as the original Mk.1 pan and simply fits into place, with no fixings required. Emptying the pan regularly, rather than letting ash build up fully, helps maintain good airflow and reduces wear on the grate and surrounding firebox components.
