Jotul F 602 installation notes
We used a jack
out of the car and the truck on each side of the Jotul
F 602 to slowly raise it
up to a point where it connected with the stovepipe.
A solid cinder block was a
nice fit for the front feet to rest on and we only had to add a couple
of spare tiles to the back block to even it out.
I would say this raises our
comfort level more than any other investment we've made in the past.

That looks COZY! And I can already smell the chestnuts roasting on top there, or was that tea brewing?
Congrats. I know you're going to enjoy the heck out of that thing this Winter.
It is extraordinarily cozy. I'm having a hard time tearing myself away from just gazing into the flames, and I'm not someone who's good at sitting still without a book to anchor me.
I'm slowly learning things that are easy to cook on it too. You got the tea right --- my first success.
We've also heated up water for dishes on it, and I'm planning to try making some soup before too long.
