Installation
Masonry Fireplace Requirements
• The entire fireplace and chimney must be
cleaned and inspected before installation. The
system must meet local building code require-
ments.
• The structure and components must be free of
any defects such as cracks or broken bricks or flue
tiles. Any damage must be repaired before
installation.
Any opening that may exist between the ma-
sonry of the fireplace and the facing masonry
must be permanently sealed.
• The chimney must have a clay tile liner or a
stainless steel liner utilizing a positive connec-
tion.
• Do not remove bricks or mortar from the fire-
place or chimney. However, masonry or steel may
be removed from the smoke shelf and adjacent
damper frame area to accommodate installation
of a chimney liner, provided that their removal
will not weaken the structure of the fireplace or
chimney, and will not reduce protection for
combustible materials.
• Chimney Height:
Minimum - 15 ft. ( 4.57 meters)
Maximum - 33 ft. (10.5 meters)

Factory-Built Fireplace Requirements
The Jøtul C 350 Winterport may be installed into a
factory-built fireplace with the following condi-
tions:
• The factory-built fireplace must be listed per
UL 127 or ULC S610.
• Installation must include a full height listed
chimney liner meeting type HT requirements
(2100F) per UL 1777 (U.S.) or ULC S635 (CAN). The
liner must be securely attached to the insert flue
collar and the chimney top. Do not block off the
flow of air between the prefabricated chimney
walls.
• The damper must be sealed to prevent passage of
room air into the chimney cavity.
• Circulating air chambers (i.e. in a steel fireplace
liner or metal heat circulator) may not be blocked.
• Air flow within and around the fireplace shall not
be altered by installation of the insert. The Sur-
round Panels comply with this requirement.
• Alteration of the fireplace is limited to
a) removal of the damper for liner installation
b) removal of external, nonfunctional trim which
must be stored within the fireplace for replace-
ment.
• Fireplace Conversion Notice PN 220508 must be
permanently attached to the back of the fireplace.
This metal label is included in the bag containing
this manual.
• Final approval is contingent on the authority having
local jurisdiction.
