burn plate missing Jotul 118....

[anagama]

Well I got an older 118 super cheap off of craigslist to heat my studio.... and I have a Vermont casting in the house they are both on the older side... both need replacement parts....the 118 is without a upper burn plate.....I knew that it was missing but did not realize how hard/expensive it was going to be to replace ....I dont mind paying the $ for a new plate but if there is a after market or a "used" retail that anyone can direct me that would great or good advice..... I would rather go cheaper but don't want to buy crap either......

Woodman's lists the top baffle for $132.50:

To ensure a good fit, make sure the stove is a true Jotul and not a knockoff.

So I'm pretty sure it's the real thing..... but how do I make sure!?

It should have the Norwegian phrase on the top front panel and have a big Jotul cast into the door front. Post a picture if still unsure.

its the real thing then.......its not an UL rated model is that a problem......or it it just old?!

I'm surprised there is no label at all, but regardless it's an oldie, but goodie.
