4.7 Chimney and flue pipe
• The fireplace can be connected to chimneys and flue pipes
approved for solid fuel fireplaces with flue gas temperatures
as specified in «2.0 Technical Data».
• The cross-section of the chimney must be at least that of the
flue pipe. Use «2.0 Technical Data» to calculate the correct
chimney cross-section. NB! The minimum recommended
chimney length is 3.5 m.
• For recommended chimney draught, see «2.0 Technical Data».
If the draught is too strong, action must be taken, e.g. install
and operate a flue pipe damper in order to reduce the draught.
• The chimney and sweeping hatch must be inspected to ensure
they are tightly sealed to prevent leakage. If there is a leak,
less air will be pulled through the stove. Your local fire safety
office can carry out an inspection of the chimney.
• The chimney must be connected in accordance with the
installation instructions of the chimney supplier.
• Before a hole is made 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.
• It is extremely important for connections to have a degree of
flexibility. This is to prevent any movement in the installation
leading to the formation of cracks.
• It is important for the joints/flue pipes to be sealed
completely. Air leakage may cause malfunction.
• An adapter that makes it easier to install the flue pipe is
available as an optional extra. See Chapter 4.11.
• A flue gas bend that alters the direction of the flue gas by
more than 45° must be fitted with a sweeping hatch. Note
that it is possible to sweep from the inside of the burn
chamber. See Chapter 7.2.
• NB: A correct and airtight connection is extremely important
for the function of the product.
• Weight must not be transferred from the fireplace structure
to the chimney. The fireplace structure must not hinder the
chimney's ability to move, and must not be anchored to the
chimney.

4.8 Before installation

Make sure that the Jøtul C 24 fits inside the hearth or surround,
Fig. 1 shows the minimum dimensions. You must allow space
between the cassette and the masonry for thermal expansion
of the cassette stove. The hearth must be cleaned thoroughly
before installation. It is important to remove old soot and tar
that has collected in the hearth to prevent an unpleasant smell
in the room. Use a suitable detergent.
The standard product comes in a single package.
When the product is unpacked, remove the bag of screws
and the box with the outside air connector, 2 hot air outlet
connectors and the oven glove from the burn chamber.
Also remove the ash pan, fire grate and a wooden block (used
for transportation) just below the product's smoke outlet.
The package also contains a box with a narrow outer frame.
Check the product for signs of damage and make sure that
the control handles work.

4.9 Door hinge reversal
It is possible to change the door of the Jøtul C 24 from left-hinged
to right. If you wish to change the hinges, this should be done
before installation. If you do not wish to change the hinges,
proceed to Chapter
4.10.
