Looks a little heavy to me. Maybe shut the air down a little sooner? If you can maintain a pipe temp of 200-250 you may see a little less flame and a longer burn.

Nice video. Dry wood under 20% is a must if you want good heat from your stove!

Looks like there’s a small crack in your casting just above that air control lever?

The new Jotul F445 Holiday just came out as the replacement of the F400. It’s a tad larger, has a catalyst and auto secondary air control.

I just purchased a used F400 for a decent price. Is there a minimum chimney length for proper draw on these secondary burn stoves? I currently use a Schrader Fireplace with double doors. No issues there with a 13 foot chimney.

I found the same thing with my 600. Glad to hear I'm not the only one.

I have been running this woodstove for 20 years, it is awesome! If you don’t like it you’re doing something wrong, I burn five cords per year

With respect to the comment below (@sebastian...) the more air, the hotter the fire, the shorter the burn. Unburned coals from an overnight burn are not a problem; if they're still "alive" they easily start the morning fire. Using Biobrick type fuel can give a long, slow burn with lots of morning embers, but less heat output per hour and at higher cost. The f400 just doesn't have a big enough firebox for overnight warm burns whether with wood or the aforementioned fuel. For "long" burns with the f400 using wood, I would aim for 300 degrees to start (stovetop temp, not stove pipe), and don't go higher. Set the damper lever maybe a quarter of its range from the left side or less. Stack the wood densely. You might get 3-4 hrs depending on wood type, preferably well seasoned oak or similar, and your glass will likely end up quite dirty. A hot fire in the morning that reaches around 500 degrees for several minutes will burn off most of the carbon on the window and also any creosote in the stovebox and up the chimney. This has been my method of burning for over a decade on my f400, and my chimney (double walled stainless steel 6" pipe) hasn't had any creosote issues as confirmed by annual cleanings from a chimneysweep. I'm located in central Massachusetts. BTW, your video above has yellow to orange flame indicating too much oxygen. I would aim for a more blueish flame coming from your secondary burn holes as this indicates a more efficient burn.

Hey, I heard iif you only half load the stove, the airwash doesn't do its job properly. So, apparently, the glass doesn't stay clean. Is that actually true?"

After all these years i am considering a new wood stove and it has come down to three candidates. Blaze king, wood stock soapstone hybrid,or a jotul f series with a catalyst. I need a stove that can hold a healthy amount of wood at least twenty four inches.

Great job

Natures tv.,, 👍 on the V patterns. Nordic

Love your videos and your enthousiasm for making a fire. North-south, is that for less risk of damaging the glass ? We have a Jotul 121 and it burns great, but I wish to see the fire and think about buying a f400 . How big is the risk of breaking the glass or scratching the glass ? Did you ever have problems with the glass ? Is it a good idea to buy already a spare glass when buying the stove ?

I have the same stove but not hooked it up yet how do u like yours and will it heat 1600sq??

Woodglut scripts contain most of the woodworking plans you can find.

Well done. Thanks for the cozy winter atmospherics.

I just saw that in my F400. What do you think that is?

Great video, thank you for making it. Did you adjust the primary air during this video? Or is this just full throttle. Thanks.

Looks good to me. Maybe a hint more air, so you wont be left with too many unburned coals the next morning.

My cast iron wood stove has a back side that can be taken off(glass vs cast iron option). And there is a fire baffle on top. I really want to add a proferated tubing on top of my stove thru the back. Is there a way to this? Without any hazards? Thanks

Thanks for sharing

Great stoves,would U get 8 hours of burn from it?

Thanks for sharing! I never would have guessed, pine cones as fire starter!

Just watching the fire burn makes this an awesome video. Thanks.

Learned a lot thanks!!!

The Jotul F400 is one of the worst stoves on the market.

This is shown in a Jotul F400 castine.
