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.
Reminder:
Your local officials have final authority in determining if
a proposed installation is acceptable. Any requirement,
that is requested 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.
Assembly before installation
The Jøtul F 600 is shipped with the flue collar, gasketing
and hardware inside the stove.
• To install the flue collar in the top or rear exit position
remove the tape from the gasketing and adhere to
the groove on the back of the stove around the flue
opening.
• Place the flue collar on the stove in the top or rear exit
position and secure with the nut, bolt and washer.
• The nut and washer are placed on the inside of the
stove.
Chimney connector
The chimney connector is a single walled pipe used
to connect the stove to the chimney. For use with the
Jøtul F 600, the chimney connector must be 6" in diameter,
with a minimum thickness of 24 gauge black steel.
• Aluminum and Galvanized steel pipe is not acceptable
for use with the Jøtul F 600. These materials cannot
withstand the extreme temperatures of a wood fire
and can give off toxic fumes when heated.
• Do not use the connector pipe as a chimney.
• Each chimney connector or stove pipe section must be
installed to the stove flue collar and to each other with
the male (crimped) end toward the stove. See figure 2,
page 13.
• This prevents any amount of condensed or liquid
creosote from running down the outside of the pipe
or the stove top.
• All joints, including the flue collar connection must be
secured with three sheet metal screws.
• For the best performance the chimney connector should
be as short and direct as possible, with no more than
two 90° elbows.
• The maximum horizontal run is 36" and a recommended
total length of stove pipe should not exceed 10 feet.
• Always slope horizontal runs upward 1/4" per foot
toward the chimney.
• 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 unit to a chimney flue servicing
another appliance.
Chimneys:
There are two types of chimneys suitable for the
Jøtul F 600:
1. A code- approved masonry chimney with a 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.
As a result, 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 northern areas it may
be necessary to reline the chimney or extend its height to
help establish draft.
Conversely, a tall masonry chimney inside the house is
easier to keep warm and will perform the best.
The following guidelines give the necessary chimney
requirements based on the national code (ANSI-NFPA
211for 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.
Notice:
It is important that you check with your local building
officials to find out what codes apply in your area before
installing your new Jøtul F 600.
Remember: Your local inspector(s) have the final authority
in approving your installation. It is always best to consult
with them prior to the installation.
