Fresh air supply
The air used for combustion in any well-insulated house needs
to be replaced. This is particularly important in houses with
mechanical ventilation. Such replacement air can be procured
in several ways. The most important thing is to supply the air
to the room where the stove is placed. Place the outside wall
valve as close to the stove as possible and make sure that it
can be closed when the stove is not in use.
For the fresh air supply connection, follow the national and
local building regulations.
Important! Ensure that air vents in the room where the
fi replace is located are not blocked.
Closed combustion system
Use the stove's closed combustion system if you live in recently
built, airtight dwellings. Connect the external combustion air
through a ventilation pipe through the wall or the fl oor.
Air supply
The amount of combustion air for Jøtul's products is approximately
20-40 m 3 /h. The outside air connection may be fi tted directly to the
product through:
•
Through a flexible supply hose from the outside/chimney
(only if the chimney has its own duct for external air) and to
the product's outside air connector.

3.0 Safety
NB! To guarantee optimal performance and safety, Jøtul stoves
must be fi tted by a qualifi ed installer.
Any modifications to the product by the distributor, installer
or consumer may result in the product and safety features not
functioning as intended. The same applies to the installation of
accessories or optional extras not supplied by Jøtul. This may
also be the case if parts that are essential to the functioning
and safety of the fi replace have been disassembled or removed.
In all these cases, the manufacturer is not responsible or liable
for the product and the right to make a complaint becomes null
and void.
The Clean Air Act
"The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas"
Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the
whole or part of the district of the authority to be a smoke
control area. It is an off ence to emit smoke from a chimney of
a building, from a furnace or from any fi xed boiler if located in a
designated smoke control area. It is also an off ence to acquire
an "unauthorised fuel" for use within a smoke control area
unless it is used in an "exempt" appliance ("exempted" from
the controls which generally apply in the smoke control area).
In England appliances are exempted by publication on a list
by the Secretary of State in accordance with changes made to
sections 20 and 21 of the Clean Air Act 1993 by section 15 of
the Deregulation Act 2015. Similarly in Scotland appliances are
exempted by publication on a list by Scottish Ministers under
section 50 of the Regulatory Reform (Scotland) Act 2014.
