3.0 Installation
3.1 Floor
Foundations
It must be ensured that the foundations are dimensioned for
the fireplace. Cf. «2.0 Technical data» for specification of weight.
It is recommended that flooring which is not fastened to the
foundations – so-called floating flooring – is removed during
installation.
Requirements for protection of wooden
flooring
The product can be placed directly on a wooden floor that is
covered by a metal plate or other suitable, non-inflammable
material. The recommended minimum thickness is 0.9 mm.
Any flooring made of combustible material, such as linoleum,
carpets, etc. must be removed from under the floor plate.
Requirement for protecting combustible
flooring in front of fireplace
The front plate must be in accordance with national laws and
regulations.
Contact your local building authorities regarding restrictions and
installation requirements.
3.2 Wall
Distance to walls made of combustible material -
see fig. 1
Requirements for insulation
80 mm rock wool 120 kg/m
aluminium.
Distance from the stove to the insulation on the back panel.
See fig. 1 and 2:
Minimum 15 mm.
Distance to walls protected by a firewall-see fig. 1
Firewall requirement
The firewall must be at least 100 mm thick and be made of
brick, concrete-stone or light concrete. Other materials and
structures with satisfactory documentation may also be used.
Contact your local building authorities regarding restrictions and
installation requirements.
Distance from the stove to firewall:
The distance must be minimum 15 mm.
Distance to non combustible wall -see fig. 1
A non combustible wall is here mentioned as a non load-bearing
wall of cement /brick.
Requirements for the insert surround
The insert surround must be made in an incombustible material.
Note that the entire back panel within the surround must be
covered by insulation.
If the stove cowling is bricked up to the ceiling and the ceiling is
made of combustible material, on top of the warming chamber
and the cowling vents an extra ceiling panel must be installed
to avoid heating the ceiling.

foliated on one side with
For example use:
Rock wool 100 mm thick on top of a steel plate min. 0,9 mm.
Ensure airing out the top of the stove cowling – for example an
opening towards the ceiling, or approx. 5 cm
Note: Remember that it should be possible to sweep and to
inspect the installation.
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 350 / Jøtul I 350 FL (for air
circulation) are:
Base: Minimum of 500 cm
Top:
Minimum of 750 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 separate air
channels or a separate channel directly to the top of the fireplace.
The fresh air channel should be as straight as possible. 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.
3.4 Ceiling
Jøtul I 350 / Jøtul I 350 FL may be assembled with the upper
edge of the hot air aperture min 540 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.
