I recently bought a Jotul F500 and I’m in the process of rebuilding. It was over fired and the burn tubes were destroyed. I have bought a new burn tube unit and many other parts. I have looked carefully for cracks in places where people say they likely occur and haven’t found any. My question revolves around whether or not to break it down further to include the sides, front and back to re cement or just leave it as is. I can’t seem to find anywhere that shows how to do it. I don’t want to get in over my head so close to winter and not be able to use it. Does anyone know where I might find either pictures or video that will help me to decide? Thanks for any help you can provide….
