Why Homeowners Choose the C 550 V2 Rockland

Jøtul Fusion™ Technology eliminates the need for a manual bypass — the insert manages its own combustion cycle automatically, making it easier to operate and more consistent in performance than traditional catalytic inserts. The toolless drop-down baffle gives you quick access to the flue for cleaning, and the dual heat-activated blowers circulate warmth throughout large open floor plans without any manual adjustment. Inspired by the rugged beauty of the Maine coast, its graceful curves and expansive glass make it as much a design statement as a heating appliance.
