4.3 Air supply
Air should be allowed to flow between the insert and the
brickwork.
The required air vent sizes for Jøtul I 160 (for air circulation)
are:
Base: Minimum of 350 cm
Top: Minimum of 500 cm
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, and 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.
4.4 Ceiling
Jøtul I 160 have been approved for: a min. 300 mm distance from
warm air opening in the hood's top to a ceiling of c0mbustible
material.
4.5 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.
Note: A guide is published by the British Flue and Chimney
Manufacturers' Association which contains general information
on chimneys and flues.
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.

In case of chimney fire
• Close all hatches and vents.
• Keep the firebox door closed.
• Check the loft and cellar for smoke.
• Call the fire service.
• Before use after a fire an expert must check the fireplace in
order to ensure that it is fully functional.
4.6 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. 3-4)
1. After unpacking the insert, take out the box with its contents,
the baffle plate and the heatshields. You may also remove
the grate, the rear bottom plate and the ash drawer.
2. Close the door. Place the cardboard packaging on the floor
and lay the fireplace carefully down on its back.
3. If the foot screws are to be used: If the product is assembled
directly on a plate, the foot screws are to be used. These
screws are already fittet in the bottom plate, see fig. 4. It is
important that the leg supports are used under the screws,
see fig. 4.
4. If long legs are to be used: 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).
5. Attach the adjustable joints (3B) to the legs.
6. Assemble the heat shield (3D) under the base of the fire with
the aid of 1 collar head screws which is fastened under the
base plate.
Note: When the door is open, the main point of the product
is in front. Secure the product to prevent it from tipping
forward.
7. Put the baffle plate in place at the top of the burn plates.
8. The final adjustments should only be made after the insert
has had a trial assembly. Always place the leg supports under
the screw heads, both to protect the surface and to prevent
the insert from slipping out of position.
9. Adjustment of the long legs is done with the aid of M10x35mm
screws which are attached to the joints (3C).
Securing the heat shield for the flue pipe (fig. 5)
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.
