Outside Air Kit (#154335)
Your local building code may require that an outside air supply be connected to the stove. Jøtul Outside Air Kit 154335 must be used in these installations unless otherwise specified by the local code official.While the use of outside air may be beneficial in some installations, in itself, such a system does not guarantee proper chimney performance. The Outside Air Kit includes an adapter collar to attach the air duct to the stove. Installation will require these additional materials not included in the kit:
1.3” (80 mm) diameter flexible metallic Air Duct - of appropriate length to reach from the stove to the outside of the house.
2.Weatherproof Duct Cap for the duct termination on the outside of the house.
3.Rodent Screen - no larger than 1/4” (5 mm) mesh.
Outside air should be considered if:
1.The stove does not “draw”steadily. Smoke rollout occurs when the door are opened. Fuel burns poorly. Backdrafts occur with or without a fire burning.
2.Other
3.Opening a window slightly on a calm (windless) day alleviates any of the above symptoms.
4.The house is equipped with a
5.There is excessive condensation on the windows in the winter.
6.A ventilation system is installed in the house.
If these or other indications suggest that infiltration air is inadequate to supply sufficient air for the stove, additional combustion air should be provided from the outdoor. Outside combustion air can be provided to the appliance by the following means:
1.Direct connection: The Jøtul F 400 has been tested and approved for use with the outside air kit listed above.
2.Indirect method: Outside air is ducted to a point no closer than (12”) 300 mm from the stove, to avoid affecting
USA/Canada
the performance of the appliance.
3.A mechanical ventilation system: If the house has a ventilation system (air change or heat recovery):
a.The ventilation system may be able to provide sufficient combustion makeup air for the
b.The homeowner should be informed that the ventilation system might need to be rebalanced by a ventilation technician after installation of the appliance.
Note: Provision of outside air to the stove, directly or indireclty, may fail to remedy the problems outlined above. Chimney performance is determined by a variety of interelating factors which may not be affected by the air supply. Your local Jøtul authorized dealer is your best resource for information regarding chimney and stove performance issues.
