Requirements for fireplace surround
Fireplace surrounds must be made of a non-inflammable
material.
Note that the entire back wall within the surround and other
adjacent areas using inflammable materials must be covered
with insulation/firewalls.
If the fireplace cowl is built up to the ceiling and the ceiling is of
inflammable material, extra panelling must be installed above
the top of the heating chamber and above the cowl's vents in
order to prevent the ceiling becoming hot.
Use for example:
Rock wool 100 mm thick on a steel plate min. 0.9 mm.
Ensure there is adequate ventilation at the top of the fireplace
cowl – e.g. a gap towards the ceiling, or approx. 5 cm
(fig. 2 ).
NB! Remember that it must be possible to sweep and inspect
the installation.
3.3 Air supply (fig. 2)
Air must flow between the insert and the brickwork, and it is
extremely important that there should be an unimpeded air
supply to the air vents at both the top and bottom of the insert.
The air inlets specified in the text are minimum requirements.
Necessary circulated air:
Base: Minimum 500 cm
2
Top:
Minimum 750 cm
2
This is to ensure that the build-up of heat inside the surround
does not become too great and that heat output into the room
is adequate.
If the building is poorly ventilated, the room should be furnished
with an additional fresh air supply by means of vents, or a
separate duct.
The fresh air duct should be as straight as possible. Ducts in
the room where the stove is installed must be made of non-
inflammable material.
The product can be supplied with outside air (kit for outside air
connection is available as an optional extra).
3.4 Ceiling
Jøtul I 400 can be fitted with the top edge of the hot air opening
at least 400 mm below a ceiling of inflammable material.
3.5 Chimney and flue pipe
• The stove can be connected to a chimney and flue pipe
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.
• Several solid fuel stoves can be connected to the same chimney
system if the chimney cross section is adequate.
• Connection to the chimney must be performed in accordance
with the installation instructions of the chimney supplier.
• Before a hole is made in the chimney, the stove should be
moved into its provisional position to enable correct marking
out of the position of the stove and hole in the chimney. See
fig. 1 for minimum dimensions.
• Make sure that the flue pipe rises all the way up to the chimney.
• Use a flue pipe bend with a sweep hatch to allow sweeping.

Please note that 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.
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.
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.
3.6 Before installation
Check that the fireplace insert is undamaged before installation
begins.
1. The standard product comes in a single package.
2. Once the product has been unpacked, take the box containing
the smoke bell, log retainer,, gasket and bag of screws out of
the burn chamber. Then remove the air duct (fig. 4 D), baffle
(fig. 5 B), exhaust deflector (fig. 5 A), side burn plates and rear burn
plate (fig. 4 E).
Installation
The product is heavy! Make sure the product does not topple over.
Ensure you have help when positioning and installing it.
1. Remove the heat shields by unscrewing the two screws,
M8x20 mm, on either side (fig. 3 A) of the burn chamber.
2. Lay the product carefully down on its back. You can put the
cardboard packaging on the floor to protect it from scratches, etc.
3. Remove the screws, M8x20 mm, holding the two side legs to
the burn chamber. (fig. 6 A).
4. Adjust the length of the side legs by fixing the bolt in the
upper leg aperture as shown in the illustration (fig. 7 A).
5. Lay the product carefully over on its side and adjust the rear
leg in the same way as for the side legs (fig. 8).
6. Screw the foot screws (fig. 9 A) into the legs.
7. Mount the heat shield (fig. 10 A) to the underside of the
burn chamber using the accompanying screws and sleeves
(fig. 10 B).
8. Stand the product up carefully. Important! Adjust the foot
screws slightly to level the product.
9. Replace the exhaust deflector (fig. 5 A), baffle (fig. 5 B), side
burn plates and rear burn plate (fig. 4 E), air duct (fig. 4 D)
and log retainer (fig. 4 C).
10. Replace the heat shield on the burn chamber using the same
screws (fig. 18 A) they were fastened with before.
11. Unscrew the upper heat shield at the rear (fig. 18 B). Turn it
upside down and screw it firmly in position using the same
screws it was fastened with before.
Installation of the smoke bell and flue pipe
(fig. 12)
The smoke bell can be installed from outside or inside as required;
Option 1 – installed from outside (fig. 12 A):
1. Install the accompanying gasket on the underside of the edge
of the smoke bell in the gasket channel (fig. 12 A-2).
2. Install the smoke bell from outside by fixing it in place using
the four accompanying M8x20 mm screws (fig. 12 A-1).
3. Then rotate the smoke bell to the desired position (fig. 17).
Tighten the screws.
4. Then install the flue pipe in the product's smoke bell. Use
gasket rope between the smoke bell and the flue pipe.
