THIS WOOD HEATER HAS A MANUFACTURER-
SET MINIMUM LOW BURN RATE THAT MUST
NOT BE ALTERED. IT IS AGAINST FEDERAL
REGULATIONS TO ALTER THIS SETTING
OR OTHERWISE OPERATE THIS WOOD
HEATER IN A MANNER INCONSISTENT WITH
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL.
Check Building Codes
When installing, operating and maintaining your
Jøtul F 45 V2Greenville woodstove, follow the guidelines
presented in these instructions, and make them available to
anyone using or servicing the stove.
Your city, town, county or province may require a building
permit to install a solid fuel burning appliance.
In the U.S., the National Fire Protection Association’s Code,
NFPA 211, Standards for Chimneys, Fireplaces,Vents and Solid
Fuel Burning Appliances, or similar regulations, may apply
to the installation of a solid fuel burning appliance in your
area.
In Canada,the guideline is established by the CSA Standard,
CAN/CSA-B365-M93, Installation Code for Solid-Fuel-Burning
Appliances and Equipment.
Always consult your local building inspector or authority
having jurisdiction to determine what regulations apply in
your area.
The Jøtul 45 V2Greenville is approved for use in mobile

1Heat Output Range results are determined during
specific emissions tests established by the EPA.
2Heating Capacity and Maximum Burn Time will vary
depending on design of home, climate, wood type and
operation
3EPA Validated Efficiency:
High Heat Value and Low Heat Value efficiencies are
determined per the CSA B415.1-10 test method. The
difference between the HHV and LHV is in how the
energy in the exhaust gas water vapor is accounted.
LHV efficiency assumes all the water vapor in
combustion gas was condensed and the heat from such
was recovered and transferred to the dwelling. HHV
calculations do not assume all water vapor is condensed,
therefore the HHV value is less than the LHV value.

A HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
FIRE, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY
RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY, OR
LOSS OF LIFE.
• CONTACT LOCAL BUILDING OR FIRE OFFICIALS ABOUT
RESTRICTIONS AND INSTALLATION INSPECTION
REQUIREMENTS IN YOUR AREA.
• ANY EXISTING CHIMNEY SYSTEM MUST BE INSPECTED
BEFORE INSTALLATION OF THIS APPLIANCE.
• DO NOT CONNECT THIS STOVE TO ANY AIR
DISTRIBUTION DUCT OR SYSTEM.
• EXTREMELY HOT WHILE IN OPERATION! KEEP
CHILDREN, CLOTHING, AND FURNITURE AWAY.
CONTACT WILL CAUSE SKIN BURNS. USE A CHILD
GUARD SCREEN TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL CONTACT
BY SMALL CHILDREN.
• INSTALL SMOKE DETECTORS IN THE LIVING AREA AND
BEDROOMS OF YOUR HOME. TEST THEM REGULARLY
AND INSTALL FRESH BATTERIES TWICE ANNUALLY.
WHEN INSTALLED IN THE SAME ROOM AS THE STOVE,
A SMOKE OR CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR SHOULD
BE LOCATED AS FAR FROM THE STOVE AS POSSIBLE
TO PREVENT THE ALARM SOUNDING WHEN ADDING
FUEL.
• Avoid creating a low pressure condition in the room
where the stove is operating. Be aware that operation
of an exhaust fan or clothes dryer can create a
low pressure area and consequently promote flow
reversal through the stove and chimney system. In
some cases, the optional Outside Air Kit #157637 can
be used to alleviate this condition.The chimney and
building, however, always work together as a system
- provision of outside air, directly or indirectly to an
atmospherically vented appliance will not guarantee
proper chimney performance. Consult your local Jøtul
authorized dealer regarding specific installation/
performance issues.
• Jøtul strongly recommends that this stove be
installed by a professional solid fuel technician, or
that you consult one if you do the work yourself. Also,
consult your insurance company regarding any other
specific requirements.
PLEASE NOTE:
IT IS NORMAL FOR SMOKE AND ODOR TO OCCUR
DURING THE INITIAL STAGES OF OPERATION,
DEPENDING UPON TEMPERATURES GENERATED
OVER TIME. THIS “CURING” CONDITION CAN
BE ALLEVIATED BY PROMOTING FRESH AIR
CIRCULATION WITHIN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY
OF THE APPLIANCE.

1.5 Flue Collar Orientation
The Flue Collar is oriented in the Top Exit position. To
change orientation to Rear Exit:
1. Remove the Rear Shroud from the stove with removal of
the four sheet metal screws at the top and bottom of the
shroud sides.
2. Twist and remove the perforated cut-out section from
the top edge of the rear shroud.
3. Use a 10 mm socket wrench to remove the two M6 nuts
and bolts that attach the flue collar to the stove. Orient
the flue collar to the rear and use the same nuts and
bolts to re-attach it to the stove.
4. Reattach the shroud to the back of the stove using the
sheet metal screws previously removed.
1.6 Flue Collar Heat Shield
Not applicable for rear exit configuration.
1. Fold the heat shield on the perforations to conform to
the shape as illustrated in fig.2.
2. Secure it to the rear stove shroud using the four #8 x 1/2
sheet metal screws from the hardware bag.
1.7 Chimney Connector
Use 6” single wall or listed 6” double-wall stovepipe to
connect the stove to the chimney. Single wall stovepipe
must be black steel or stainless steel and have a minimum
thickness of 24 gauge. Do not use aluminum or galvanized
steel pipe for chimney connection - these materials are not
suitable for use with solid fuel. Attach the flue collar to the
chimney connection using 2 self-drilling screws found in the
miscellaneous kit.
Follow these guidelines:
• Do not use chimney connector as a chimney. It is
intended only as a connection device.
• Each connector section must be oriented with the male
(crimped) end pointing toward the stove. See fig. 3.
• Secure all connector joints with three sheet metal
screws.
• For the best performance, the chimney connector should
be as short and direct as possible, including no more
than two 90° elbows.
• The maximum vertical run of single wall stovepipe
should not exceed 10 ft.
• The maximum horizontal run should not exceed 3 ft.
with a 1/4” rise per foot. Under no circumstance should

• 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 stove to a chimney flue
serving another appliance.

139967 F 45 V23/20
2.0 Chimney Requirements
There are two types of approved chimneys:
1. A code-approved masonry chimney with a ceramic tile
or listed steel flue liner.
2. A prefabricated chimney complying with the
requirements for Type HT (2100°F) chimneys per UL 103
or ULC S629.
Use of an existing chimney requires that the entire system
pass a UL 1482 Level II inspection by a qualified solid fuel
technician or building official.
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. If the chimney flue is outdoors, its cross-sectional
area may not exceed two times greater than the stove flue
collar. See also Sect. 3.2.
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 actu-
ally creates a suction, called “draft” which pulls air through
the stove.
Several factors affect draft: chimney height, cross-sec-
tional area (size), and temperature of the chimney, as well
as the proximity of surrounding trees or buildings.
A short exterior masonry chimney will give the poorest
performance because it will be difficult to warm the flue
and sustain the temperatures necessary to maintain draft
strength. In extremely cold climates, it may be necessary to
reline the chimney or extend the height to help establish
draft.
A tall, interior masonry chimney is easier to keep warm
and will perform well under a variety of weather and envi-
ronmental conditions.
The following guidelines give the necessary chimney
requirements based on the national code (ANSI-NFPA 211
for the US. And CSA CAN-B365 for Canada). However, many
local codes differ from the national code to take into ac-
count climate, altitude, or other factors. Your local building
inspector is the final approving authority. Consult them
prior to installation.
Do not connect the stove to any air distribution duct or
system.
2.1 Masonry Chimneys
Follow these guidelines when installing the Jøtul F 45 V2
into a masonry chimney:
• The masonry chimney must have a fireclay liner or
equivalent, with a minimum thickness of 5/8”
(14 mm) and must be installed with refractory mortar.
There must be at least 1/2”air space between the flue
liner and chimney wall.
• The fireclay flue liner must have a nominal size of
8” X 8”, and should not be larger than 8”X 12”. A round
fireclay liner must have a minimum inside diameter of
6” and maximum inside diameter of 8”.
A larger chimney should be relined with an appropriate
code approved liner.
• Brick or modular block must be a minimum of
4” nominal thickness. Stone construction must be at
least 12” thick.
• A newly-built chimney must conform to local codes,
or, in their absence, must comply with national
regulations.
• An existing chimney must be inspected by a
professional, licensed chimney sweep, fire official, or
code officer to ensure that the chimney is in proper
working order. Any repairs must be completed before
installing the stove.
• No other appliance may be vented into the same flue.
• An airtight clean-out door should be located at the
base of the chimney.
2.2 Prefabricated Chimneys
A prefabricated metal chimney must be tested and
listed for use with solid fuel burning appliances. High
Temperature (HT) Chimney Standard UL 103 for the U.S.
and High Temperature Standard ULC S-629 for Canada.
The manufacturer’s installation instructions must be
followed precisely. Always maintain the proper clearance
to combustibles as established by the pipe manufacturer.
This clearance is usually a minimum of 2”, although it may
vary by manufacturer or for certain chimney components.

8
139967 F 45 V23/20
The bricks must be solid brick with a minimum of 3 inches
thick (nominal 4”).
Refractory mortar must be used at the junction of the
chimney and the pass-through liner. The pass-through
liner must not penetrate the chimney liner beyond the
inner surface of the chimney liner. Use extreme care when
constructing the hole in the chimney liner as the tiles can
shatter easily.
Figure 4. Chimney Height Requirement.
2.3 Chimney Height
The chimney must be at least 3 feet higher than the
highest point where it passes through the roof and at
least 2 feet higher than the highest part of the roof or
structure that is within 10 feet of the chimney, measured
horizontally. See fig. 4.
Chimneys shorter than 14 feet may not provide adequate
draft. Inadequate draft can result in smoke spillage when
loading the stove, or when the door is open. Poor draft can
also cause back puffing (ignition of gas build-up inside the
firebox) and sluggish performance. The minimum height
does not, in itself, guarantee proper chimney performance.
Optimum draft force should be in the .05 - .10 in. w.c. range
measured by a Magnahelic gauge. Draft at .07 w.c. is ideal.
Excessive chimney height can promote over-strong draft
resulting in high stove temperatures and short burn times.
Excessive draft can be corrected by installing a butterfly
damper. Your Jøtul dealer is an expert resource to consult
regarding draft issues or other performance-related
questions.
2.4 Wall Pass-Throughs
Note: In addition to the methods described here, any listed,
prefabricated wall pass-through components available
from chimney manufacurers may be used.
In the U.S.
The National Fire Protection Association’s publication,
NFPA 211, Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces,Vents and Solid
Fuel Burning Appliances permits four methods for passing
through a combustible wall. Before proceeding with any
method be sure to consult with your local building officials
to discuss any local code requirements.
Common Method:
See fig. 5. Remove all combustible materials from the pass-
through area ( around the chimney connector), a minimum
12”. A 6” diameter connector will require a 31”x 31” square
opening.
The opening must be filled with at least 12” of brick around
a fireclay liner. The liner must be ASTM C35 or equivalent,
having a minimum wall thickness of 5/8”.
The Pass-through must be at least 18” from combustible
ceiling materials.
It will be necessary to cut wall studs, install headers, and
construct a sill frame to maintain the proper dimensions
and to support the weight of the brick.

3.2 Hearthmount into a Masonry
Fireplace
The Jøtul F 45 V2on standard legs may be installed into a
masonry fireplace with a minimum opening height of
29 1/2”.
Use Short Leg Kit 137636 to install into a fireplace with a
minimum opening height of 26 1/4”. Short legs are approved
only for use on a code-approved, masonry fireplace hearth.
Building code requires that the fireplace damper plate be
removed or securely fixed in the open position.
A connector pipe must then extend from the stove’s flue
exit through the damper area of the fireplace and into the
chimney tile liner. See fig. 7. In any case, we recommend
that a full liner be installed through any masonry chimney
to ensure good performance.
The cross-sectional area of the flue of a chimney with no
walls exposed to the outside below the roofline may be no
more than three times the cross-sectional area of the stove
flue collar.
Figure 7. Hearthmount Installation.
Connector extends at
least into the first flue.
Direct connection to the
chimney cap is highly
recommended.
Damper is sealed
with a steel plate
and high-temper-
ature sealant.
In Canada
The installation must conform to CAN/CSA-B365,
Installation Code for Solid Fuel Burning Appliances and
Equipment. Before proceeding be sure to consult your local
building inspector.
Common Method:
This method requires the removal of all combustible
materials from at least 18” around the chimney connector’s
proposed location. A 6” round liner requires a minimum
opening 43” x 43” square.
Locate the pass-through at least 18” from combustible
ceiling materials.
The space that is cleared of combustible materials must
remain empty. Sheet metal panels can be used to cover
the area. However, when using a panel on both sides of
the wall, each cover must be installed on noncombustible
spacers at least 1” from the wall. If one panel of sheet metal
is to be used it may be installed flush to the wall.
See section 5.3.1 and 5.3.2 of CAN/CSA - B365-M91. Consult
your local building inspector, authorized Jøtul Dealer,
NFPA 211 in the U.S. or CAN/CSA-B635 in Canada for other
approved wall pass-through methods.
3.0 Connecting to the Chimney
3.1 Masonry Chimney
A ceramic or steel thimble is commonly used to penetrate
the chimney wall into the flue. The chimney connector/
stove pipe must slide completely inside thimble to the
inner surface or the flue liner. It may be necessary to
include a thimble sleeve having a slightly larger diameter
than the connector pipe. See fig. 6.
The connector pipe and/or thimble sleeve must not
protrude into the flue liner or otherwise restrict draft.
Use refractory cement to seal the seams between the
chimney connector, sleeve, and thimble.
Do not connect this stove to a chimney flue servicing
another appliance of any kind.

The cross-sectional area of the flue of a chimney with one
or more walls exposed to the outside below the roofline
may be no more than two times the cross-sectional area of
the stove flue collar.
If the chimney liner is too large to accommodate the stove,
an approved relining system must be installed to resize the
flue.
A new sheet metal damper block-off plate must be
installed around the connector pipe at the damper frame
and sealed with the proper sealant (usually High-Temp
Silicone).
3.3 Prefabricated Chimneys
When connecting the Jøtul F 45 V2 to a prefabricated
metal chimney always follow the pipe manufacturer’s
instructions and be sure to use the all components that are
required. This usually includes a chimney adaptor that is
secured to the bottom section of the metal chimney and
allows the chimney pipe to be secured to it with two sheet
metal screws. See fig. 8.
3.4 Mobile Home Installation
The Jøtul F 45 V2is approved for installation in
manufactured mobile homes provided the following
requirements are met:
1. All chimney components, including chimney sections,
supports, spark arrestor, etc., shall comply with the Standard
for Factory-built Chimneys for Residential Type and Building
Heating Appliances, UL 103 and/or CAN/ULC-S629 Standard
for 650°C Factory-built Chimneys.
2. The chimney shall be attached directly to the stove and
extend at least 3 ft. above the roof. Termination must be at
least 2 ft. above the hightest elevation of any part of the

3. In order to allow for transportation of the mobile home,
the chimney termination shall be readily removed at
or below an elevation of 13.5 ft. above ground level and
reinstalled without use of special tools or instructions.
4. A spark arrester must be installed at the termination. The
net free area of the arrester above the chimney outlet must
not be less than four times the net area of the chimney
outlet, and the vertical height of the arrester must not
be less than one-half the diameter of the chimney flue.
Openings shall not permit the passage of a sphere having a
diameter larger than 1/2”, and shall permit the passage of a
sphere having a diameter of 3/8”.
5. Direct connection of the stove to an outside air source is
required. Use Outside Air Kit #157637 . Do not substitute any
other connection method or device. See Appendix, Section
7.0. Duct termination must not be installed at a level that is
higher than the air inlet located at the bottom of the stove.
6. The stove must be secured to the mobile home floor. Use
Floor Bracket Kit 157321.
7. When the chimney exits the mobile home at a location
other than through the roof, and exits at a point 7 ft. or
less above the ground level, a guard or other method of
enclosing the chimney, must be provided at the point of exit
for a height up to 7 ft. Openings of this chimney guard shall
not permit penetration of a 3/4 in. diameter rod, or contact

The Jøtul F 45 V2also requires one of the following forms of
hearth protection if not installed directly on concrete poured
on earth:
1) Any UL/ULC Type I,Type II, or Warnock Hersey Listed hearth
board.
2) Any non-combustible material.
IN THE U.S: Floor protection must extend continuously
forward from the door opening at least 16 in. and 8 in. from
the sides of the door opening. Protection must also extend
2 in. from the rear and 2” to the sides under any horizontal
chimney connector. This will result in a minimum floor
protector measuring 27” wide x 44” deep. See fig 9.
IN CANADA: Floor protection must extend continuously
18” from the front of the stove and 8 in. from the sides and
rear. It must also extend 2 in. under any horizontal chimney
connector. This results in a floor protector dimension of 39 in.
x 52 in. See fig.10.
4.2 Alternate Floor Protection
All floor protection materials must be non-combustible
(i.e., metals, brick, stone, mineral fiber boards, etc.). Any
organic materials (i.e., plastics, wood, paper products, etc.)
are combustible and must not be used. The floor protector
specified may include some form of thermal designation
such as R-value (thermal resistance), k-factor (thermal
conductivity), or C-factor (thermal conductance).
See 7.5 Appendix on page 24 for the procedure to determine
alternate floor protection materials that meet the thermal
requirements for this stove.
4.3 Clearances to Walls and Ceilings
The clearances listed and diagramed in this manual have
been tested to UL and ULC standards and are the minimum
clearances to combustible materials specifically established
for the Jøtul F 45 V2.
A combustible surface is anything that can burn (i.e. sheet rock,
wall paper, wood, fabrics etc.). These surfaces are not limited
to those that are visible and also include materials that are
behind non-combustible materials. If you are not sure of the
combustible nature of a material, consult your local fire officials.
Remember:“Fire Resistant” materials are considered
combustible; they are difficult to ignite, but will burn. Also
“Fire-rated” sheet rock is also considered combustible.
Contact your local building officials about restrictions and
installation requirements in your area.
See pages 12-13 for clearance requirements and diagrams.

4.4 Using Shields to Reduce Clearances
Double Wall Connector: Listed double wall pipe is an
acceptable alternative to connector pipe heat shields.
Wall-Mounted Protection: When reducing clearances
through the use of wall-mounted protection:
In the U.S. refer to NFPA 211, Standard for Chimneys, Fire-
places,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.
Notice: Many manufacturers have developed woodstove
accessories that permit clearance reduction. Use only
those accessories that have been tested by an independent
laboratory and carry the laboratory’s testing mark. Be sure
to follow all of the manufacturer’s instructions.

WARNING
ALWAYS WEAR STOVE GLOVES WHILE TENDING THE FIRE.
NEVER ALLOW THE FIRE TO REST DIRECTLY ON THE
GLASS. KEEP THE LOGS SPACED AT LEAST ONE INCH FROM
THE GLASS TO ALLOW FOR PROPER AIR FLOW WITHIN THE
STOVE. AVOID STRIKING THE GLASS WITH LOGS.
OPERATE THIS STOVE ONLY WITH THE FRONT DOOR
FULLY CLOSED. OPERATION WITH THE DOOR PARTIALLY
OPEN MAY RESULT IN OVER-FIRING. IF THE DOOR
IS LEFT PARTIALLY OPEN, GAS AND FLAME MAY BE
DRAWN OUT OF THE STOVE CREATING SAFETY RISKS
FROM BOTH FIRE AND SMOKE.
5.0 Operation
Please read the following section before building the first
fire in your new Jøtul F 45 V2.
5.1 Combustion Efficiency
The Jøtul F 45 V2has an EPA tested High Heating Value
(HHV) efficiency rate of 71.0%. There are aspects of
efficiency, however, that you should be aware of in order to
get the most from your stove.
Operation habits and fuel moisture can have a significant
effect on efficiency. Poorly seasoned wood having a higher
than optimum moisture content, can reduce the amount
of energy transferred to the living area as a result of the
energy expended to evaporate the excess fuel moisture
in order for the wood to burn. Operational aspects, such
as not building a robust kindling fire to readily ignite the
larger fuel pieces, can result in an inefficient smoldering
fire. Additionally, most modern wood heaters’ optimum
performance and efficiency are at the medium to medium
-to-low burn rates.
The location of the stove can have a significant effect on
heating efficiency, primarily in regard to heat distribution.
For example, a wood heater centrally located in the
residence in an open living area will likely provide better
circulation of heat than will a stove located in a room
adjacent to the larger living area.
5.2 Minimize Carbon Monoxide Emissions
Testing the F 45 V2to CSA B414.1-10 resulted in a carbon
monoxide emission rate of 1.48 grams per minute. Most
means of combustion produce CO, including wood fires.
Maintaining a well-established fire and avoiding operation
that produces a smoldering, smoky fire, will greatly reduce
CO levels.
It is highly recommended that a CO monitor (detector)
be installed in the same room as the stove.The monitor,
however, should be located as far away as possible from
the stove to avoid alert soundings when adding fuel to the
fire.
5.3 Wood Fuel and Performance
The F 45 V2is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher
efficiencies and lower emissions generally result when
burning air-dried, seasoned hardwoods, as opposed to
softwoods, green or freshly cut hardwoods. Wood that has
been air-dried for a period of 6 to 14 months will provide
the cleanest, most efficient heat. Wood seasoned more
than 2 years will burn too quickly to take advantage of the
stove’s low end efficiency strength.
A seasoned log will have check marks on the ends and be
lighter than an unseasoned log which will show little or no
check marks.
We recommend using a moisture meter to determine
the moisture content of your wood. For purposes of home
heating, your fuel should have a moisture content between
12 - 20%. Wood with higher moisture content will burn,
however, very inefficiently. Most of its heat value will be
lost to driving water out of the wood. Worse, that moisture
will condense as creosote in the relatively cool chimney
flue, increasing the potential for a chimney fire. Use of
unseasoned wood defeats the purpose of any modern wood-
burning stove.
BURN UNTREATED WOOD ONLY. DO NOT BURN:
• Coal;
• Garbage;
• Synthetic fuel or logs;
• Material containg rubber, including tires;
• Material containing plastics;
• Waste petroleum products, asphalt products, paints,
paint thinners or solvents;
• Materials containing asbestos;
• Construction or demolition debris;
• Railroad ties or pressure-treated wood;
• Manure or animal remains;
• Lawn clippings or yard waste;
• Salt water driftwood or other previously salt-water;
saturated materials;
• Unseasoned wood;
• Colored paper, or
• Paper products, cardboard, plywood, or particle board.
(The prohibition against burning these materials does not
prohibit the use of fire starters made from paper, cardboard,
saw dust, wax or similar substances for the purpose of
starting a fire.)
• Burning of any of the materials listed above can result in
the release of toxic fumes, cause smoke,or render the heater
ineffective and cause smoke
• NEVER USE GASOLINE, GASOLINE-TYPE LANTERN FUEL,
KEROSENE, CHARCOAL LIGHTER FLUID OR SIMILAR LIQUIDS
TO START OR “FRESHEN-UP” THE FIRE. ALWAYS KEEP SUCH
LIQUIDS AWAY FROM THE HEATER AT ALL TIMES.

5.4 How Your Jøtul F 45 V2Works
When used with dry wood and a well-drafting chimney
system, modern non-catalytic wood stoves burn fuel
efficiently by the precise control and delivery of primary and
secondary air to the fire.
Primary Air is drawn into a front inlet in the stove
bottom and directed through a regulator shutter under
the front door before entering the lower fire chamber.
Additional primary air is directed to the top of the load door
to act as an air wash to help prevent extreme soot build-up
on the glass panel. The amount of primary air available to
the fire determines the intensity of heat output and rate of
fuel combustion; the greater the amount of air, the greater
the heat output, the faster the wood burns. The primary air
setting also determines the effectiveness of the air wash over
the glass; the higher the setting, the cleaner the glass.
Additional air is separately directed into the top of the
fire chamber to support combustion of exhaust gasses
before passing out of the stove. This unregulated Secondary
Air enters through an inlet in the rear of the stove bottom
and is heated as it passes through the rear of the stove
into a two-tiered manifold at the top of the firechamber.
Additional secondary air is directed through a stainless steel
baffle plate.
Volatile gases, released unburned from the fuel bed,
rise to the baffle where they are turbulently mixed with the
hot, fresh oxygen. Secondary combustion then occurs before
the gases pass into the heat exchange chamber. The action
of secondary combustion can be readily seen through the
viewing glass as slow, rolling flames suspended over the
main fuel bed and smaller jets of flame extending from
the baffle manifold ports. At the same time, no smoke will
be observed exiting the chimney. This is evidence that the
stove is operating at the so-called ”sweet-spot” wherein
optimum efficiency and lowest particulate emissions are
realized. See fig. 15.
Use a Stove-top Thermometer
Determining the primary air setting for the best overall
performance for your particular needs and installation will
be established over time and experience. Each installation
has unique characteristics that affect stove performance.
You should use a stove-top thermometer to monitor the
status of the fire. Place the thermometer on the stove top,
centered to one side or the other. Generally speaking, once
the stove temperature has reached 400°F - 600°F (204°C
-316°C), the air control may be set in a mid-range position
to allow adequate oxygen to support efficient combustion
throughout the burn cycle.
You can also monitor stove performance through the
window. Peak combustion efficiency occurs when exhaust
gas is burned at the baffle in the top of the firebox. This is
apparent as rolling yellow-orange flames appearing at the
secondary air ports in the underside of the baffle plate and
forward tube. At this stage, little or no smoke will be visible
exiting the chimney.
5.6 Controlling the Fire
Combustion intensity is controlled by the position of an air
shutter located under the front door. You adjust its position
using the handle located under the ash lip. Slide the handle
to the left to decrease air to the fire. Sliding it to the right
increases air delivery and consequently, fire intensity. See
fig. 16. The shutter regulates and directs primary air to the
front of the burn chamber. Push it to the right to allow
maximum air to support combustion. It should be fully
open when first starting or rekindling a fire, or when greater
heat output is desired.

5.7 Break-In Procedure
Although your Jøtul F 45 V2is constructed of welded, 3/16”
steel plate, it also incorporates cast iron components. This
material requires the stove to be“broken-in” gradually
so that heat expansion does not occur too quickly and
cause damage. The following steps describe the proper
break-in procedure for your stove. Use a magnetic stove-
top thermometer to monitor stove temperature, placed
directly on the cookplate.
Set the Primary Air Shutter fully open, all the way to the
right.
1. Light a small fire of newspaper and kindling at the
front of the stove. Gradually add small pieces of wood,
but only allow the stove to reach a maximum surface
temperature of 200°F (93° C). Continue burning at this
low rate for approximately 1 hour.
2. Allow the stove to cool to room temperature.
3. Light a second fire, allowing the stove to reach a
maximum temperature of 300°F (149°C) for 1 hour.
4. Cool the stove to room temperature.
5. Light a third fire and gradually allow the stove to reach
a surface temperature of 400°F (204°C)
6. Cool the stove to room temperature. This completes the
“break-in” procedure.
Note: If the temperature exceeds the limit during any
break-in fire, move the Air Shutter all the way to the left
to shut off the air supply completely. It is normal that the
stovetop temperature will continue to climb until the fuel
burns down somewhat. Once the fire is out and the stove
has cooled to room temperature, continue the break-in
procedure. Never attempt to reduce the temperature by
removing burning logs from the fire.
WARNING:
NEVER OVER-FIRE THE STOVE. IF ANY PART OF THE
STOVE OR CHIMNEY GLOWS, YOU ARE OVER-FIRING.
A HOUSE FIRE OR SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE STOVE
OR CHIMNEY COULD RESULT. IF THIS CONDITION
OCCURS, IMMEDIATELY CLOSE THE AIR CONTROL.
ATTEMPTS TO ACHIEVE HEAT OUTPUT RATES THAT
EXCEED HEATER DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS CAN RESULT
IN PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE HEATER.
Break-in Odors: It is normal for a newly-painted
stove to emit odor and smoke during the first
few fires, and these may set off smoke alarms.
This condition is caused by curing of the high
temperature paint and will diminish with each
subsequent fire. It is advisable to open windows
or doors to provide plenty of fresh air and cross-
ventilation during the break-in period.
5.8 Starting and Maintaining a Fire
Burn only solid wood directly on the bottom of the
stove firechamber. Do not elevate the fire in any way.
Section 7.7 of the Appendix shows the cordwood test
method fire building procedure for a high fire with a
cold start.
Traditional Fire Building
1. With the primary air control lever in the full open
position (to the right), start with several sheets
of crumbled newspaper placed directly on the
grate. On top of the newspaper, place several
pieces of small dry kindling (approx. 1” in diameter)
with two to three larger logs (approx. 3” to 5” in
diameter) on top.
2. Light the fire and close the door, slowly building
the fire by adding larger and larger logs. Be sure
to follow the break-in procedure before creating a
hot fire that might damage the stove.
3. Once the stove has reached a surface temperature
range of between 400° and 600°, (204°C -316°C),
adjust the primary air control lever as necessary to
generate the heat output and burn time desired.
Top-Down Fire Building - See fig. 17.
Many people find this method to be superior to the
traditional method.
1. With the primary air control lever in the full open
position (to the right), place two short 1/4-split logs
on the firebox floor, perpendicular to the rear wall,
about 6 inches apart.
2. Place kindling across the base logs.
3. Place one or two smaller logs on top of the
kindling.
4. Place newspaper between the two bottom logs
under the kindling. Light the news paper and close
the door. Continue to add kindling and small logs
as necessary to build the fire. Keep the air control
fully open until the fire is well-established.
5. Add more logs as the fuel bed become fully
involved and use the stove-top thermometer to
monitor progress. When the stove has reached a
surface temperature range of between 400° and
600°, (204°C -316°C), adjust the primary air control
lever as necessary to generate the heat output and
burn time desired.
You can also monitor stove performance through the
window. Peak combustion efficiency occurs when
exhaust gas is burned at the baffle in the top of the
firebox. This is apparent as rolling yellow-orange
flames appearing at the secondary air ports in the
underside of the baffle plate and forward tube. At
this stage, little or no smoke will be visible exiting the
chimney.

Figure 17. Top-down fire starting structure.
5.10 Creosote Formation and the
Need for Removal
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other
vapors that combine with moisture to form creosote.
Creosote vapors condense in the relatively cool chimney
flue, and creosote residue accumulates on the flue lining.
When ignited, this creosote fuels an extremely hot fire.
The chimney connector and chimney flue should be
inspected at least every other month during the heating
season to determine if creosote buildup has occurred.
If creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce
the chance of a chimney fire.
In the event that creosote ignites in the flue, the resulting
fire is often accompanied by a roaring noise and crackling
sound as flakes of burning creosote break loose. If you
suspect you are having a chimney fire, immediately close
the air controls and make sure the door is closed securely.
Call the fire department and have everyone leave the house.
Do not attempt to extinguish the fire. Opening the door will
only supply additional oxygen and intensify the fire. When
the fire in the flue has subsided, resist the temptation
to open the door to check on the fire. The fire may have
suffocated, but could re-ignite with a supply of fresh air.
After a chimney fire, do not use the stove until the chimney
connector and flue have been cleaned and inspected to
ensure no damage has been sustained.
See Section 6.6 of this manual regarding chimney cleaning.
5.11 Ash Removal
Remove ashes whenever accumulation nears the primary
air port located inside the firechamber just under the door
opening.
Always wear safety gloves when handling the ashes.
Ashes should only be placed in a metal container equipped
with a tight sealing lid. The container should be placed on a
noncombustible floor or on the ground, well away from all
combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes
are to be disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally
dispersed, they should be kept in the closed container until
all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
5.9 Adding Fuel
Follow this procedure when reloading the stove while it is
still hot and a bed of hot embers remains:
• Always wear gloves when tending to the stove.
• Adjust the Primary Air Shutter Lever to the fully open
position - all the way to the right. Wait a few seconds to
re-establish strong draft before opening the load door.
This will allow fresh air to flush the firebox and prevent
smoke escaping when the door is opened.
• Minimize CO exposure: Open the door slightly, and
hesitate a moment to allow exhaust purge, then open
the door fully.
• Use a stove tool or poker to evenly distribute coals and
embers around the firebox.
• Load the fuel, usually with smaller logs first.
• Close the door, being sure to latch the door tightly.
• Wait 5 – 10 minutes to re-establish the fire before
setting the air controls for the desired heat output and
burn time. (If there is at least a 2” thick ember bed
when reloading, it may be possible to close the door and
immediately adjust the air control setting).
• Set the Air Shutter for the desired heat output.
WARNING: Operate the stove only with
the front door fully closed except for
refueling. Operation with the door
partially open may result in overfiring.
Also, if the door is left partially open,
combustion gas and flame may be
drawn out of the stove, creating risks
from both fire and smoke.

6.0 Maintenance
6.1 Door Latch Adjustment
Over time, as the door gasket becomes compressed, it may
be necessary to adjust the door latch in order to maintain
the integrity of the door seal. To check the front door seal,
close and latch the door on a dollar bill and slowly try to
pull the bill free. You should feel resistance as you pull. If
it can be easily removed, the seal is too loose. Follow this
procedure to tighten the latch mechanism.
Tools Required:
• 4 mm hex key
1. Remove the two socket head screws and latch keeper
from the stove. See fig. 18.
2. Remove one of the shim plates from the latch cavity
and re-install the latch keeper. Retain the shim plate(s)
removed for future use.
3. Test the seal integrity using the dollar bill.
The door gasket will compress over time. When the latch
can no longer be tightend by shim removal, install a new
gasket and replace the shim plates.
6.2 Glass Care
Cleaning
On occasion it will be necessary to clean the carbon deposits
and fly ash off of the glass. If these deposits are allowed
to remain on the glass for an extended period of time, the
surface may become etched and cloudy. Any creosote that
might develop on the glass will burn off during the next hot
fire.
Follow this glass cleaning procedure:
1. Glass must be completely cool.
2. Only use cleaning products specifically formulated
to clean solid fuel appliance glass and follow the
manufacturer’s instructions. Use of abrasive compounds
or solutions will damage the glass. DO NOT USE
AMMONIA-BASED GLASS CLEANERS.
3. Rinse and dry glass completely before burning the stove.
Polish with a piece of newspaper.
Caution! Always operate the door slowly and carefully to
avoid cracking or breaking the glass. Never use the door to
push wood into the firebox. If the glass becomes cracked or
broken follow the replacement procedure in Section 6.5.
Never operate the stove with a cracked or broken glass
panel.
Important: Replace glass only with ceramic glass panel
PN 224923 specifically designed for the Jøtul F 45, available
from your local Jøtul dealer. Do not substitute any other
glass.
6.3 General Care
Regular maintenance will ensure excellent performance
and prolong the life of your stove.The following procedures
do not take long and are generally inexpensive. When
performed consistently, they will lengthen the life of your
stove and in turn, provide many years of service.
• Regularly empty the stove of all soot and ashes. Only
use a vacuum for this job if the vacuum is specifically
designed to handle ashes. CAUTION: Ashes can contain
live embers. Be certain the ash bed contains no live
embers before using a vacuum.
• Inspect the stove: Using a strong light inspect the stove
inside and out for cracks or leaks.
• Replace any broken bricks. See fig. 35, page 25. DO NOT
