  N

has a nominal heat output of 

7,0 kW

. Use 

of wood, with nominal heat emission: Approx. 

2,3 kg/h

. 

Another important factor for proper fuel consumption is that the

Kindling:

Length: 30 - 40 cm

Diameter: 2 - 5 cm

Amount per fire: 8 - 10 pieces

Firewood (split logs):

Recomended length: 25 - 35 cm

Diameter: Approx. 8 - 12 cm

Intervals for adding wood: Approx. every 40 minutes

Size of the fire:  1,5 kg

Amount per load:  2 pieces

Nominal heat emission is achieved  when the air vent is open 

approximately 25%.

3.0 Installation

3.1 Floor

Foundations

It must be ensured that the foundations are dimensioned for 

the fireplace. Cf. 

«2.0 Technical data»

foundations – so-called floating flooring – is removed during 

installation.  

Requirements for protection of wooden 

flooring 

Jøtul F 

602

 N has a heat shield underneath which protects the 

floor from radiation. The product can therefore be placed directly 

on a wooden floor that is covered by a metal plate or other 

suitable, non-inflammable material. The recommended minimum 

thickness is 0,9 mm. 

Any flooring made of combustible material, such as linoleum, 

carpets, etc. must be removed from under the floor plate.

Requirement for protecting combustible 

flooring in front of fireplace

The front plate must be in accordance with national laws and 

regulations.

Contact your local building authorities regarding restrictions and 

installation requirements.
