Check Building Codes
When installing, operating and maintaining your Jøtul F 400
woodstove, follow the guidelines presented in these
instructions, and make them available to anyone using or
servicing the stove.
Your city, town, county or province may require a building
permit to install a solid fuel burning appliance.
In the U.S., the National Fire Protection Association’s Code,
NFPA 211,
Solid Fuel Burning Appliances
apply to the installation of a solid fuel burning appliance in
your area.
In Canada, the guideline is established by the CSA Standard,
CAN/CSA-B365-M93, Installation Code for Solid-FuelBurning Appliances and Equipment.
Always consult your local building inspector or authority
having jurisdiction to determine what regulations apply in
your area.
Standards for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and
, or similar regulations, may
Read this entire manual before you install and use your
new room heater.
Save these instructions and make them available to anyone
using or servicing the stove.
Jøtul pursues a policy of continual product development. Products as supplied may therefore differ in specification, colour, or type of
accessories, from those illustrated or otherwise described in publications and brochures.
• Do not use chemicals or fluids to start the fire. Do not
burn garbage or flammable fluids.
• If this room heater is not properly installed, a house fire
may result. To reduce the risk of fire, follow the
installation instructions. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in property damage, bodily
injury, or loss of life.
• Contact the local building or fire officials about
restrictions and installation inspection requirements in
your area.
• Do not connect this stove to any air distribution duct or
system.
• Extremely hot while in operation! Keep children,
clothing and furniture away. Contact will cause skin
burns.
• Avoid creating a low pressure condition in the room
where the stove is operating. Be aware that operation
of an exhaust fan or clothes dryer can create a low
pressure area and consequently promote flow reversal
through the stove and chimney system. In some cases,
the optional Outside Air Kit #154335 can be used to
alleviate this condition. The chimney and building,
however, always work together as a system - provision
ofoutside air, directly or indirectly to an atmospherically
vented appliance will not guarantee proper chimney
performance. Consult your local Jøtul authorized dealer
regarding specific installation/performance issues.
• Jøtul recommends that this stove be installed by a
professional solid fuel technician or that you consult
one if you do the work yourself. Also, consult your
insurance company regarding any other specific
requirements.
Installation
If this solid fuel room heater is not properly installed, a
house fire may result. For your safety, follow the installation
directions. Contact the local building or fire officials about
restrictions and installation inspection requirements in your
area.
Your local officials have final authority in determining if a
proposed installation is acceptable. Any requirement by
the local authority having jurisdiction that is not specifically
addressed in this manual, defaults to NFPA 211, and local
codes in the U.S. or in Canada, CAN/CSA-B365-M and local
codes.

USA/Canada
Assembly Before Installation
Unpack the Stove
Inspect the stove for damage. Contact your dealer
immediately if any damage is found. Do not install the stove
if any damage is evident.
Contents:
• Inspection Cover (Not for use in US/Canada)
• Door Handle
• Hardware Bag
Flue Collar Reversal
The Flue Collar is oriented in the Top Exit position. If a Rear
Exit position is required, remove the two mounting bolts,
and turn the collar 180 degrees. Secure the collar using the
same bolts, nuts and washers.
Chimney Connector
Use 6” single wall or listed 6” double-wall stovepipe to
connect the stove to the chimney. Single wall stovepipe
must be black iron or stainless steel and have a minimum
thickness of 24 gauge. Do not use aluminum or galvanized
steel pipe for chimney connection - these materials are
not suitable for use with solid fuel.
Follow these guidelines regarding chimney connector
construction:
• Do not use chimney connector as a chimney. It is intended
only for use as a connection device.
• Each connector section must be oriented with the male
(crimped) end pointing toward the stove. See fig. 2.
• Secure all connector joints with three sheet metal
screws.
• For the best performance, the chimney connector should
be as short and direct as possible, including no more
than two 90° elbows.
• The maximum vertical run of single wall stovepipe
should not exceed 10 ft. (305 cm). The maximum
horizontal run should not exceed 3 ft. (92 cm) with a 1/4”
rise per foot.
• No part of the chimney connector may pass through an
attic or roof space, closet or other concealed space, or
through a floor or ceiling. All sections of the chimney
connectors must be accessible for cleaning. Where
passage through a wall or partition of combustible
construction is desired, the installation must conform
with NFPA 211 or CAN/CSA-B365, and is also addressed
in this manual.
• Do not connect this stove to a chimney flue servicing
another appliance.
Chimney Requirements
There are two types of chimneys suitable for the Jøtul F
400 :
1. A code-approved masonry chimney with a ceramic tile
or listed steel flue liner.
2. A prefabricated chimney complying with the
requirements for Type HT (2100°F) chimneys per UL 103
or ULC S629.
The chimney size should not be less than the cross-sectional
area of the flue collar, and not more than three times
greater than the cross-sectional area of the flue collar.
When selecting a chimney type and the location for the
chimney in the house, keep this in mind: It is the chimney
that makes the stove work, not the stove that makes the
chimney work. This is because a chimney actually creates
a suction, called “draft” which pulls air through the stove.
Several factors affect draft: chimney height, cross-sectional
area (size), and temperature of the chimney, as well as the
proximity of surrounding trees or buildings.
A short masonry chimney on the exterior of a house will
give the poorest performance. This is because it can be
very difficult to warm the chimney thereby creating
inadequate draft. In extremely cold climates, it may be
necessary to reline the chimney or extend its height to
help establish draft.
A tall, interior masonry chimney is easier to keep warm
and will perform the best under a variety of weather and
environmental conditions.
The following guidelines give the necessary chimney
requirements based on the national code (ANSI-NFPA 211
for the US. And CSA CAN-B365 for Canada). However, many
local codes differ from the national code to take into
account climate, altitude, or other factors. Your local
building inspector is the final approving authority. Consult
them prior to installation.
Do not connect the stove to any air distribution duct or
system.
Masonry Chimneys
When installing the Jøtul F 400 into a masonry chimney
you must conform to all of the following guidelines:
• The masonry chimney must have a fireclay liner or
equivalent, with a minimum thickness of 5/8” (14 mm)
and must be installed with refractory mortar. There
must be at least ½” (12.7 mm) air space between the
flue liner and chimney wall.
• The fireclay flue liner must have a nominal size of 8” X
8” (20 cm x 20 cm), and should not be larger than 8”X 12”
(20 cm x 30 cm). A round fireclay liner must have a
minimum inside diameter of 6” (15 cm) and maximum
inside diameter of 8” (20 cm). A larger chimney should
be relined with an appropriate code approved liner.
4
USA/Canada
• Brick or modular block must be a minimum of 4” (10 cm)
nominal thickness. Stone construction must be at least
12” (30 cm) thick.
• A newly-built chimney must conform to local codes, or,
in their absence, must comply with national regulations.
• An existing chimney must be inspected by a professional
licensed chimney sweep, fire official, or code officer to
ensure that the chimney is in proper working order.
• No other appliance may be vented into the same flue.
• An airtight clean-out door should be located at the base
of the chimney.
Prefabricated Chimneys
A prefabricated metal chimney must be tested and listed
for use with solid fuel burning appliances. High Temperature
(HT) Chimney Standard UL 103 for the U.S. and High
Temperature Standard ULC S-629 for Canada.
The manufacturer’s installation instructions must be
followed precisely. Always maintain the proper clearance
to combustibles as established by the pipe manufacturer.
This clearance is usually a minimum of 2”, although it may
vary by manufacturer or for certain chimney components.
Chimney Height
The chimney must be at least 3 feet (92 cm) higher than
the highest point where it passes through the roof and at
least 2 feet (61 cm) higher than the highest part of the roof
or structure that is within 10 feet (3.05 m) of the chimney,
measured horizontally. See figure 3.
Chimneys shorter than 14 feet (4.27 m) may not provide
adequate draft. Inadequate draft can result in smoke
spillage when loading the stove, or when the door is open.
Poor draft can also cause back puffing (ignition of gas buildup inside the firebox) and sluggish performance. The
minimum height does not, in itself, guarantee proper
chimney performance.
Excessive chimney height can promote over-strong draft
resulting in high stove temperatures and short burn times.
Excessive draft can be corrected by installing a butterfly
damper. Your Jøtul dealer is an expert resource to consult
regarding draft issues or other performance-related
questions.
Wall Pass-Throughs
Common Method:
• See figures 4 and 5. Remove all combustible materials
from the pass-through area ( around the chimney
connector), a minimum 12” (30.5 cm). A 6” (15.2 cm)
diameter connector will require a 31” x 31” (78.7 x 78.7
cm) square opening.
• The opening must be filled with at least 12” (30.5 cm) of
brick around a fireclay liner. The liner must be ASTM C35
or equivalent, having a minimum wall thickness of 5/8”
(16 mm).
• The Pass-through must be at least 18” (45.7 cm) from
combustible ceiling materials.
• It will be necessary to cut wall studs, install headers,
and construct a sill frame to maintain the proper
dimensions and to support the weight of the brick.
• The bricks must be solid brick with a minimum of 3 ½
inches thick (nominal 4” / 102 mm).
• Refractory mortar must be used at the junction of the
chimney and the pass-through liner. The pass-through
liner must not penetrate the chimney liner beyond the
inner surface of the chimney liner. Use extreme care
when constructing the hole in the chimney liner as the
tiles can shatter easily.
In Canada
The installation must conform to CAN/CSA-B365,
Installation Code for Solid Fuel Burning Appliances and
Equipment. Before proceeding be sure to consult your local
building inspector.
Common Method:
• This method requires the removal of all combustible
materials from at least 18” (45.7 cm) around the chimney
connector’s proposed location. A 6” round liner requires
a minimum opening 43” x 43” (109.2 x 109.2) square.
• Locate the pass-through at least 18” from combustible
ceiling materials.
• The space that is cleared of combustible materials must
remain empty. Sheet metal panels can be used to cover
the area. However, when using a panel on both sides of
the wall, each cover must be installed on
noncombustible spacers at least 1” from the wall. If one
panel of sheet metal is to be used it may be installed
flush to the wall.
See section
your local building inspector, authorized Jøtul Dealer, NFPA
211 in the U.S. or CAN/CSA-B635 in Canada for other
approved wall pass-through methods.

Connecting to the Chimney
Masonry Chimney
When installing a Jøtul F 400 into a masonry chimney
through a “thimble” (the opening through the chimney wall
to the flue), the thimble must consist of ceramic tile or
steel and be securely cemented in place.
The chimney connector/stove pipe must slide completely
inside the thimble to the inner surface or the flue liner. It
may be necessary to make use of a thimble sleeve (a pipe
with a slightly smaller diameter than standard stove pipe).
See figure 5
The connector pipe or thimble sleeve must not protrude
into the flue liner or otherwise restrict draft.
Use refractory cement to seal the seam between the
chimney connector, sleeve, and thimble.
Do not connect this stove to a chimney flue servicing
another appliance of any kind.

shield required).
2.2.
2. Any noncombustible material that has a minimum
2.2.
R- value of 2.0. (No bottom heat shield required.)
3.3.
3. Any noncombustible material with the use of the stove’s
3.3.
bottom heat shield.
All forms of protection must include a noncombustible
surface extending a minimum of 18” (460 mm) in front of
the stove, and 8” (200 mm) from the sides and back of the
stove (measured from side and back panels).
This will result in a minimum floor protection of 42”W X
44”D. See figure 8.
In a rear vent installation, the floor protection must also
extend under the stove pipe a minimum of 2” (50 mm)
beyond either side of the pipe. See figure 8

Hearthmount into a Masonry
Fireplace
The Jøtul F 400 may be installed into a masonry fireplace
provided the height of the opening is a minimum of 29 1/2”.
Use of the Short Leg Package will reduce the stove height
by 2 1/4” (57 mm).
Building code requires that the fireplace damper plate be
removed or securely fixed in the open position. A connector
pipe must then extend from the stove’s flue exit through
the damper area of the fireplace and into the chimney tile
liner. See figure 6.
The inside area of the flue liner must not be less than the
area of the stove flue collar and cannot be more than three
times greater than the cross sectional area of the stove
flue collar.
If the chimney liner is too large to accommodate the stove,
an approved relining system must be installed to resize
the flue.

Consult appendix A at the back of this section for alternate
floor protection methods and materials.
Clearances to Walls and Ceilings
The clearances listed and diagramed in this manual have
been tested to UL and ULC standards and are the minimum
clearances to combustible materials specifically
established for the Jøtul F 400 .
A combustible surface is anything that can burn (i.e. sheet
rock, wall paper, wood, fabrics etc.). These surfaces are
not limited to those that are visible and also include
materials that are behind noncombustible materials.
If you are not sure of the combustible nature of a material,
consult your local fire officials.
Remember: “Fire Resistant” materials are considered
combustible; they are difficult to ignite, but will burn. Also
“Fire-rated” sheet rock is also considered combustible.
Contact your local building officials about restrictions and
installation requirements in your area.
Prefabricated Chimneys
When connecting the Jøtul F 400 to a prefabricated metal
chimney always follow the pipe manufacture’s instructions
and be sure to use the components that are required. This
usually includes some type of “smoke pipe adapter” that is
secured to the bottom section of the metal chimney and
allows the chimney pipe to be secured to it with three sheet
metal screws. See figure 7.

shielding listed for use with solid fuel heaters. The
connector heat shield must begin 1” above the lowest
exposed point of the connector pipe and extend vertically
a minimum of 25” (640 cm) above the top surface of the
stove.
Double Wall Connector: Listed double wall pipe is an
acceptable alternative to connector pipe heat shields.

Operation
Please read the following section completely, before
building a fire in your new Jøtul F 400 .
Use Solid Wood Fuel Only
First this stove is designed to burn natural wood only. Wood
that has been air-dried for a period of 6 to 14 months will
provide the cleanest, most efficient heat.
Do not burn:
*Coal *Treated or painted wood
*Garbage *Chemical Chimney cleaners
*Cardboard *Colored paper
*Solvents *Any synthetic fuel or logs
The burning of any of these materials can result in the
release of toxic fumes. Never use gasoline, gasoline-type
lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar
liquids to start or “freshen-up” the fire. Always keep such
liquids away from the heater at all times.
Important:
the glass panel. The logs should always be spaced at least
one inch from the glass to allow for proper air flow within
the firebox.
Never build or allow the fire to rest directly on
does not occur too quickly and cause damage. The following
steps describe the proper break-in procedure for the Jøtul
F 400 :
1.
Light a small fire of newspaper and kindling. Only allow
the stove to reach a maximum surface temperature of
200°F (93° C). Burn for approximately 1 hour.
2.
Allow the stove to cool to room temperature.
3.3.
3. Light a second fire, allowing the stove to reach a
3.3.
maximum temperature of 300°F (149°C) for 1 hour.
4.
Cool the stove to room temperature.
5. Light a third fire and gradually allow the stove to reach
a surface temperature of 400°F (204°C).

“break-in” procedure.
To monitor the stove’s temperature, use a magnetic stovetop thermometer, placed directly on the corner of the stove’s
top plate.

temperature during any “break-in fire”, with the exception
of the last “break-in” fire. If the temperature exceeds
400°F, move the primary air control lever all the way to the
left to shut off the air supply completely. It is normal that
the stove top temperature will continue to climb until the
fuel burns down somewhat. Once the fire is out and the
stove has cooled to room temperature, continue the breakin procedure. Never attempt to reduce the temperature
by removing burning logs from the fire.
Controls on the Jøtul F 400
Combustion air is controlled by the Primary Air Lever,
located above the ashlip on the front of the stove. The
lever actuates a shutter over the air inlet which regulates
the volume of primary air entering the firebox and affects
heat output and burn time.
When first starting or reviving the fire: the primary control
lever should be at the far right position
maximum amount of air into the stove. The greater the
amount of air entering the stove, the hotter and faster the
fire will burn. Moving the lever to the left reduces the airflow
into the stove which prolongs the fire at a lower heat
output. See

Air Flow / Performance
Primary air enters the firebox directly above the glass panel
on the door. The incoming air creates a turbulent barrier or
“airwash” between the glass and the fire. Reducing the
flow of primary air directly reduces the effectiveness of
the airwash. Determining the primary air setting for the
best overall performance for your particular needs and
installation will only be established over time through trial
and error.
Break-In Procedure
The Jøtul F 400 is constructed of cast iron and stove
furnace cement. This type of construction requires the
stove to be “broken-in” gradually so that heat expansion
Note:Note:
Note:
It is normal for a new painted stove to emit an odor
Note:Note:
and smoke during its first several fires. This is caused by
the seasoning of the high temperature paint and will
diminish with each fire. Opening a window or door to provide
additional ventilation will alleviate this condition.
Starting and Maintaining a Fire
Burn only solid wood directly on the bottom grate of the
stove. Do not elevate the fire in any way.
• The ash pan door on the stove must always be securely
closed when the stove is in operation.
• Burning the stove with the Ash Door open will over-fire
the stove and cause interior damage.
1. With the primary air control lever in the full open position
(to the right), start with several sheets of crumbled
newspaper placed directly on the grate. On top of the
newspaper, place several pieces of small dry kindling
(approx. 1” in diameter) with two to three larger logs
(approx. 3” to 5” in diameter) on top.
2. Light the fire and close the door, slowly building the fire
by adding larger and larger logs. Be sure to follow the
break-in procedure before creating a hot fire that might
damage the stove.
3. Once the stove has reached a surface temperature
range of between 400° and 600°, (204°C -316°C), adjust
the primary air control lever as necessary to generate
the heat output and burn time desired.
Jøtul recommends use of a magnetic stove top
thermometer to monitor the surface temperature of
the stove. The optimum surface temperature range for
10
USA/Canada
the most efficient burn is between 400° and 600°
(204°C -316°C).
See figure 12 for the best locations to place a stove-top
thermometer.
Never overfire the stove. If any part of the stove or chimney
glows, you are overfiring. A house fire or serious damage to
the stove or chimney could result. If this condition occurs,
immediately close down the air control.
Adding Fuel
When reloading the stove while it is still hot and a bed of
hot embers still exist, follow this reloading procedure:
• Always wear gloves when tending to the stove.
• Push the air control lever to the full open position (far
right).
• Wait a few seconds before opening the door.
• Use a stove tool or poker to distribute the hot embers
equally around the firebox.
• Load the fuel, usually with smaller logs first.
• Close the door, be sure to latch the door tightly.
• Wait 5 – 10 minutes before adjusting the primary air to
the desired heat output setting. (If you have at least a
2” thick ember bed when reloading, it may be possible
to close the door and immediately adjust the air control
setting).
Maintenance
Ash Removal
For your protection always wear safety gloves when
handling the ash pan.
Ash removal will be required periodically depending on how
frequently the stove is used. The Jøtul F 400 is equipped
with an exterior ash pan assembly that allows easy ash
removal without opening the front door.
The ash pan door is located under the front ashlip of the
stove. To open the ash door, engage the receptacle end of
the door handle with the square fitting on the ash door
latch. Rotate the door counterclockwise to unlatch the
door and clockwise to latch the door.
With a gloved hand
the ash pan. Always close the ash pan door before leaving
to dispose of the ashes.
The ashes should be placed in a metal container equipped
with a tight sealing lid. The container should be placed on a
noncombustible floor or on the ground, well away from all
combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes
are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally
dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container

The Formation of Creosote
When wood is burned slowly and at low temperatures, it
produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with
moisture to form creosote. The slow moving smoke carries
the creosote vapors, which condense in the cooler chimney
flues, and this creosote then sticks to the chimney walls.
The creosote that accumulates in the chimney is highly
flammable and is the
chimney fires it is important to have the chimney and
chimney connector pipe inspected and/or cleaned
semiannually. A qualified chimney sweep or other
authorized service person can provide this service.
It is also important to remember that chimney size,
temperature and height all affect draft which in turn
affects the formation of creosote. Be sure to follow the
installation and operation guidelines established in this
manual.

Glass Care
Cleaning
On occasion it will be necessary to clean the carbon deposits
and fly ash off of the glass. If the carbon and fly ash are
allowed to remain on the glass for an extended period of
time it could eventually cause the glass to become etched
and cloudy. Any creosote that might develop on the glass
will burn off during the next hot fire.
Follow this cleaning procedure:
1. Glass needs to be completely cool.
2. Only use a cleaner that is specifically designed for this
purpose. The use of abrasives will damage the glass
and ultimately leave the glass frosted.
3. Rinse and dry glass completely before burning the stove.
Caution!
avoid cracking or breaking the glass. Never use the door to
push wood into the firebox. If the glass becomes cracked
or broken follow the replacement procedure below. Never
operate the stove with a cracked or broken glass panel.
Always operate the door slowly and carefully to
Important: Replace glass only with ceramic glass panel
specifically designed for the Jøtul F 400 . Do not use
substitutes. Replacement glass is available from your local
Jøtul dealer.

Glass Removal
1. Remove the door from the stove and place on a flat
surface.
2. Carefully remove all of the glass clips from the inside of
the door.
3. Gently remove the glass panel and gasketing.
4. Using a wire brush, remove all remaining debris from
the glass area .
5. Apply a small bead of gasket/stove cement and the
new gasket. Do not overlap the ends of the gasket
rope.
6. Center the new glass panel over the gasket and reinstall
the glass clips. See figure 13.
7. It may be necessary to retighten the glass clips after
the stove has be burned and the gasketing has been
seated.

Chimney System
The Jøtul F 400 is designed to burn cleanly and efficiently
when used according to the guidelines in this manual. In
order to maintain proper performance, you should inspect
the chimney and chimney connector at least twice a year
and clean when creosote and fly ash deposits exceed 1/4”
in any part of the system. Failure to keep the chimney
system free of creosote and build up could result in a
serious chimney fire.
At least once per year you should perform the following
maintenance procedures:
• Thoroughly clean the stove. Use a soft cloth with soap
and water to clean enamel surfaces. Be sure the stove
is cold, before cleaning.
• Empty stove of all soot and ashes. Only use a vacuum
for this job if the vacuum is specifically designed for
ashes.
• Inspect the stove seams. Use a utility light to inspect
the stove inside and out for cracks or leaks. Replace all
cracked parts and repair any cement leaks with furnace
cement.
Gaskets
Check door and glass panel gaskets for tightness. To check
the seal of the front door, close and latch the door on a
dollar bill and slowly try to pull the dollar bill free. If it can
be easily removed, the seal is too loose. Check several spots
around the door, and repeat the procedure on the ash pan
door as well.
Gasket Replacement
1. Use pliers and a putty knife to remove the old gasket
from the door.
2. Thoroughly clean the channel with a wire brush.
3. Apply a small bead of cement to the channel.
Accessories
Use only accessories that are specifically designed for use
with the Jøtul F 400 .
Firescreen (# 129650)
The Jøtul F 400 has been approved for use as an open
fireplace, with front door open. Care should be taken when
operating the stove as a fireplace.

efficiency is sacrificed for the sake of aesthetics, much
as with a conventional fireplace. Wood will burn at a
much faster rate as combustion air is uncontrolled. Most
of the heat value of the wood will be lost up the chimney.
Not all installations will support the use of the
firescreen. Moderate or low draft conditions may result
in smoke spillage from the stove when using the
firescreen.
12
USA/Canada
Warning: Operate your Jøtul F 400 with the front door fully
open and the firescreen in place or fully closed. A partially
opened door may result in overfiring. Also, if the door are
left partly open, gas and flame may be drawn out of the
stove opening, creating risks from both fire and smoke.
Stove-Top Thermometer (# 5002)
Jøtul recommends the use of a magnetic stove-top
thermometer to monitor the surface temperature of the
stove. The optimum surface temperature range for the
most efficient, clean burn is between 400° and 600°.
Outside Air Kit (#154335)
Your local building code may require that an outside air
supply be connected to the stove. Jøtul Outside Air Kit 154335
must be used in these installations unless otherwise
specified by the local code official. While the use of outside
air may be beneficial in some installations, in itself, such a
system does not guarantee proper chimney performance.
The Outside Air Kit includes an adapter collar to attach the
air duct to the stove. Installation will require these
additional materials not included in the kit:
the performance of the appliance.
3. A mechanical ventilation system:
ventilation system (air change or heat recovery):
a. The ventilation system may be able to provide
sufficient combustion makeup air for the solid-fuel
appliance.
b. The homeowner should be informed that the
ventilation system might need to be rebalanced by a
ventilation technician after installation of the appliance.
Note: Provision of outside air to the stove, directly or
indireclty, may fail to remedy the problems outlined above.
Chimney performance is determined by a variety of
interelating factors which may not be affected by the air
supply. Your local Jøtul authorized dealer is your best resource
for information regarding chimney and stove performance
issues.

Rear Heat Shield (# 154385)
A stove rear heat shield has been specifically designed for
the Jøtul F 400 to reduce clearances off the rear of the
stove to combustible materials. Use of the heat shield doesnot affect the clearance off the sides of the appliance. See
pages 8-9 for specific clearance requirements. Complete
installation instructions are supplied with the heat shield.
No other type of heat shield may be used on the rear of the
Jøtul F 400 .
Bottom Heat Shield (# 154384)
The bottom heat shield supplied with your stove has been
specifically designed for the Jøtul F 400 . It is required in all
alcove installations. Use of the bottom heat shield does not
affect the floor protection requirements described on page
6 of this manual.
No other type of heat shield may be used on the bottom of
the Jøtul F 400 .
If these or other indications suggest that infiltration air is
inadequate to supply sufficient air for the stove, additional
combustion air should be provided from the outdoor.
Outside combustion air can be provided to the appliance
by the following means:
1.Direct connection: The Jøtul F 400 has been tested and
approved for use with the outside air kit listed above.
