Using Shields to Reduce Clearances

Pipe shields: When using listed pipe shields to reduce the
connector clearance to combustibles, it must start
1”(25,4mm) above the lowest exposed point of the connect
pipe and extend vertically a minimum of 25” (635mm) above
the top surface of the stove.

Double wall pipe: Listed double wall pipe is an acceptable
alternative to connector pipe heatshields.

Wall-Mounted Protection: When reducing clearances through
the use of wall mounted protection:

In the U.S. refer to NFPA 211, Standard for Chimneys,
Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances, for
acceptable materials, proper sizing and construction
guidelines.

In Canada, refer to CAN/CSA-B365, Installation Code for Solid-
Fuel Burning Appliances and Equipment, also for acceptable
materials, proper sizing and construction guidelines.

Stove Mounted Heatshield: A stove rear heatshield has been
specifically designed for the Jøtul F 500.
Rear heatshield part # 154329.

No other heat shield may be used.
See pages 16-17 for complete clearance requirements and
diagrams.

Notice
Accessories for wood stoves for clearance reduction have been
developed by many manufacturers. If not following the
methods of the installation codes, be sure that any accessory
you choose has been tested by an independent laboratory
and carries the laboratory’s testing mark. Make sure to follow
all of the manufacturer’s instructions.

Always contact your local building inspector or fire officials
about restriction and requirements in your area. Reminder, it
is the local officials who have final authority in the installations
approval.

Alcove Installation:

The Jøtul F 500 can be installed in an alcove situation provided:
See figures 9 and 10, page 14.

1. The stove must be installed with listed double walled pipe.
2. In a protected alcove installation both side walls and rear wall

must be protected per NFPA 211 or CAN/CSA-B365. The wall
protection must be elevated 1”(24,5mm) from the floor and at
least 1” (24,5mm)off the combustible wall to allow for an air-
flow.

3. The height of the wall protection including the bottom air space

must be 48”(1219mm).

4. The bottom heatshield is required in all alcove installations.
5. If a listed (UL/ULC) hearth board is not used the hearth that is

constructed must have a minimum r value of 1.6 (see appendix
a, page 19)
.

6. Minimum ceiling height in an unprotected installation, off the

top of the stove is 48”(1219mm). The minimum ceiling height
off the top of the stove in a protected ceiling installation is
15”(380mm).

Use of the left side load door is prohibited in alcove installations.

Mobile Home Installations:

The Jøtul F 500 has been approved for use in mobile homes in the
U.S. and Canada, provided:

1. The stove is secured to the floor or the mobile home. Floor

mounting kit #750304.

2. The stove is provided outside air for combustion. Outside Air

kit #154333 (see page 11 for more details)

3. The stove must be grounded to the mobile home frame per

NFPA 70.

As always, consult with your local building inspector or fire officials
about restrictions and requirements in your area prior to installing
