[Hearth.com] Courtier 500

We have recently moved and inherited a functioning (not yet brave enough to use by us) stove which is labelled as a Courtier 500. I have done some detective work but whilst I can find other Courtier 700 models have found nothing about this one. It is a beautiful turquoise vitreous enamel and the previous owner has kindly left some expertly wrapped strips of replacement glass. Any information would be much appreciated, thanks in advance.
 
You’ll want to get somebody in to take a look at the stove and chimney to verify safety. There isn’t enough space in front to ensure safety when loading and loading the stove. Code calls for 16”, I see about 10. It’d be way too easy to set your carpet on fire. There may be other safety issues that we can’t see.
