Ceiling; Chimneys And Flue Pipes - Jøtul F 601 N Montage- Und Bedienungsanleitung

Distance to walls protected by a firewall-see
fig. 1
Firewall requirement
The firewall must be at least 100 mm thick and be made of
brick, concrete-stone or light concrete. Other materials and
constructions with satisfactory documentation may also
be used, e.g. Jøtul Firepanel.
Installation of fireplace in a recess
A freestanding fireplace may be placed in a recess if this
has been constructed with the thickness of a firewall. The
minimum measurements of the recess must allow 100 mm
of clearance between the product and the side and back
walls. The height of the recess must be equivalent to at
least the total height of the product + the depth of the
recess. The front must be open.

4.4 Ceiling

There must be a minimum distance of 1200 mm
combustible roof above the fireplace.

4.5 Chimneys and flue pipes

Special attention must be paid to the following:
The chimney or flue system must comply with the Building
Regulations for heat producing appliances. It is important
to ensure that the chimney has the correct dimensions for
the stove and that the attachment to the chimney is sealed
and is functioning properly. Smoke gas entering enclosed
spaces may represent a serious health risk.
The chimney or flue must be sound and clean. If it has been
used with a wood, coal or other solid fuel fire, it must be
swept before the stove is installed.
Ensure that only one stove is served by the chimney or flue
system.
Ensure that the chimney or flue is structurally sound. In
particular, it must not be possible for products of
combustion to come into contact with combustible
materials in the structure of the building.
In some situations it may be advisable to fit a flue liner
prior to the installation of the stove. Your installer will advise
if this is necessary.
Choose a Flue Exit Position
Prior to making an opening in the chimney, the fireplace
should be set up as a test to ensure proper placement on
the firewall in relation to the chimney. See fig. 1 for
dimensions of firewall. Mark off hole for the flue pipe (pay
attention to any rise toward the chimney)and place the
flue pipe on the smoke outlet of the fireplace.
Uninsulated flue pipe
If uninsulated flue pipes go through floors or walls, the
opening must be made of brick or masonry. The installation
must be in accordance with national laws and regulations.
Assembling of the flue
Drill a hole for the flue pipe. The distance from stove to
firewall/chimney shall be at least 100 mm. Always use a
chimney collar when connection to chimney. Use the
supplier's recommended chimney collar when connecting
to an element chimney. Follow the supplier's assembly and
usage instructions closely with regard to mortar/furnace
cement before starting to use the fireplace.
Ensure that the flue pipe never leans towards the chimney.
At a minimum it shall be horizontal, preferably a few
millimetres climb.
Note! A correct and sealed connection is very important
for the proper functioning of the product.
Be alert to the fact that it is particularly important that
connections have a certain flexibility. This is to prevent
1200 mm 1200 mm 1200 mm to a 1200 mm
setting of the house from leading to fissuration.
In case of chimney fire
• Close all hatches and vents.
• Keep the firebox door closed.
• Check the loft and cellar for smoke.
• Call the fire service.
• Before use after a fire an expert must check the
fireplace in order to ensure that it is fully functional.
