1. Introduction
Congratulations on your new wood-burning stove. Your stove has probably already been installed, and perhaps you have
used it for the first time. To most of us, an operating manual is something we consult when everything else has failed -
particularly if we have had a wood-burning stove for many years. Nonetheless, we hope that you will take the time to read
this manual as you would use different wood-burning stove models differently. In order to fully enjoy your new stove, you
should familiarize yourself with it; this is not difficult but merely requires a little patience.
2. Installation
Jydepejsen wood-burning stoves have been tested and approved by testing institutes in accordance with applicable law.
Prior to final approval, the stoves are subjected to various fire technical tests. Your wood-burning stove has been tested
with a top outlet. Birchwood with 12 - 20% humidity was used during the testing.
You should ensure that your stove is installed in accordance with applicable codes, regulations and safety distances for
combustible material. All Jydepejsen dealers will be happy to tell you about the requirements applying to your specific stove
and give you further instructions on its correct installation. Furthermore, your dealer / chimney sweep may tell you exactly
which type of chimney you need.
All local provisions including provisions referring to national and European standards must be followed when the stove is
installed.
You should ensure that sufficient combustion air is delivered to the stove, also with the simultaneous use of other heating or
exhaustion devices. The insulation of contemporary homes is often so good that fresh air valves are necessary to supply
fresh air from outside. If you home is fitted with fresh air grates, any blocking of these must be prevented.
Furthermore, you should check if the vermiculite plating is fitted correctly in the fire chamber. Please refer to the illustration
in this manual for positioning instructions.
The floor
Jydepejsen stoves are fitted with a radiation shield under the stove to protect the base space against heat radiation. As the
product has integrated floor protection, you may place it directly on a flammable bedplate. Contact your local building
authorities if you have any concerns or questions.
Floor plate
If the stove is mounted on a combustible floor, the floor in front of the stove must be protected by a floor plate as embers
from the stove could land on the floor. The size of the floor plate depends on the laws and regulations in the country of
installation. For example, a floor plate could be made of natural stone, concrete, sheet iron or glass. Lacquered sheet iron
or glass floor plates may be purchased as accessories to these models.
The stove is suitable for use on a flue gas collector pipe.
