3.3 Air supply (fig. 2)
Air should be allowed to flow between the insert and the
brickwork, and it is very important that there is a free air supply
to the draft catcher on top of the insert.
The required air vent sizes for Jøtul I
150
FL (for air circulation)
are:
Base: Minimum of 350 cm
2 free ventilation.
Top: Minimum of 500 cm 2 free ventilation.
This is a safety measure to prevent a build up of heat in the
surround, and also to ensure sufficient heat emission into the room.
If the house is badly ventilated, the room must be equipped with
extra fresh air circulation, for example by means of a separate
channel under the base of the fireplace.
The fresh air channel should be as straight as possible, as should
the channel itself. It should be possible to close the channel with
a damper in order to keep out cold air when the fireplace is not
being used. A good choice would be Jøtul’s own fresh air damper,
catalogue no: 340654.
3.4 Ceiling
Jøtul I
150
FL may be assembled with the upper edge of the hot
air aperture min. 300 mm beneath the ceiling of the flammable
material.
3.5 Chimney
• The fireplace can be connected to a chimney and flue
pipe approved for solid fuel fired fireplaces with flue gas
temperatures specified in
«2.0 Technical data» .
• The chimney’s cross-section must be at least as big as the
flue pipe’s cross-section. See
«2.0 Technical data»
when
calculating the correct chimney cross-section.
• Several solid fuel fired fireplaces can be connected to the
same chimney if the chimney’s cross-section is sufficient.
• Connection to the chimney must be carried out in accordance
with the installation instructions from the supplier of the
chimney.
• Before making a hole in the chimney the fireplace should be
test-mounted in order to correctly mark the position of the
fireplace and the hole in the chimney. See
fig. 1
for minimum
dimensions.
• Ensure that the flue pipe is inclined all the way up to the
chimney.
• Use a flue pipe bend with a sweeping hatch that allows it
to be swept.
Be aware of the fact that connections must have a certain
flexibility in order to prevent movement in the installation
leading to cracks.
N.B. A correct and sealed connection is very important for the
proper functioning of the product.
Warning! Weight from the fireplace must not be transferred to the
chimney. The fireplace must not interfere with the ability of the
chimney to move and it must not be fastened to the chimney.
Recommended chimney draught, see «2.0 Technical data».
If the draught is too strong you can install and operate a flue
damper to control the draught.
3.6 Preparation/installation
Make sure that the fireplace insert is free of damage before
commencing with the installation.
The product is heavy! Make sure you have assistance when
erecting and installing the fireplace.
Attaching the legs (fig. 3)
1. After unpacking the insert, loosen the handle which is
attached to the top. Take out the box with its contents, baffle
plate together with the heatshields. Close the door.
2. Place the cardboard packaging on the floor and lay the
fireplace carefully down on its back.
3. Assemble the 3 legs
(A)
with the aid of flush screws M6 x 25
mm and washers. (The screws and washers are included in
the plastic bag).
4. Attach the adjustable joints
(B)
to the legs.
5. Assemble the heat shield
(D)
under the base of the fire with
the aid of 1 collar head screws which is fastened under the
base plate.
6. Put the baffle plate in place in the grooves at the top of the
burn plates.
7. The final adjustments should only be made after the insert
has had a trial assembly. Always place the leg floor plate under
the screw heads, both to protect the surface and to prevent
the insert from slipping out of position.
8. The final adjustment is done with the aid of M10x45mm
screws which are attached to the joints
(C)
.
Securing the heat shield for the flue pipe
(fig. 4)
The heat shield for the flue pipe is fixed to the back of the rear
heat shield by means of the two tapping screws that you will
find in the bag of screws.
If a bend is to be used in the flue pipe from the stove directly into
the chimney, which lies behind the stove, this heat shield may
be in the way. As normally there will be no flammable material
in the wall behind the stove and the heat shield may then be
removed.
3.7 Connection to chimney
• The flue pipe bend must be attached to the smoke outlet at
the front edge with an M6 self cutting screw
(5 C)
. Use an Ø
5,5 mm drill and make a hole in the flue pipe for the screw.
N.B. A correct and sealed connection is very important for the
proper functioning of the product. Air leakage etc. may lead to
malfunction.
