Venting Requirements, Vent Restriction

Venting Requirements

The Jøtul GF100 Nordic QT gas stove may be installed with a vertical or horizontal termination and must conform to the configuration requirements described below.

This appliance is approved for use with vent systems from the following manufacturers:

•Simpson Dura-Vent GS

•Selkirk Metalbestos

•Security Vent Ltd.

•Amerivent Corporation

Use parts of one manufacturer only - DO NOT MIX VENT COMPONENTS FROM DIFFERENT MANUFACTURERS IN THE SAME SYSTEM.

Installation of any components not manufactured or approved by Jøtul or failure to meet all clearance require- ments will void all warranties and could result in prop- erty damage, bodily injury, or serious fire.

The approved vent configurations described in this manual are derived from extensive testing under con- trolled laboratory conditions. Gas appliance performance can be negatively affected by variables present in the installation environment, i.e: atmospheric pressure, strong prevailing winds, adjacent structures and trees, snow accumulation, etc. These conditions should be taken into consideration by the installer and stove owner when planning the vent system design.

IMPORTANT

Vent Restriction

The Nordic QT is shipped with an Exhaust Restrictor Plate which prevents overly strong draft that can cause poor combustion and weak flame picture. The Exhaust

Restrictor should be installed on any stove using a vertical termination or snorkel termination.

Additional restriction may be needed depending the overall vent height. Most vent manufacturer’s offer in- line vent restrictors that install between two pipe sections. Follow the vent manufacturer’s installation instructions.

Exhaust Restrictor Plate:

1.Remove the glass panel and log set.

2.Using a 1/4” nut driver, remove the two sheet metal screws in the rear wall of the firebox below the exhaust hole. See fig. 5.

3.Install the restrictor plate over the lower half of the exhaust hole and secure the plate using the same screws that were just removed.

4.Reinstall logs and glass.

•JOINT SEALING REQUIREMENT: APPLY A 1/8” BEAD OF HIGH- TEMPERATURE (750°F)

SEALANT TO THE MALE SECTION OF THE INNER VENT PIPE. THE CEMENT SHOULD FORM A SEAL BETWEEN THE INNER AND OUTER PIPES.

•NEVER MODIFY ANY VENTING COMPONENT, OR USE ANY DAMAGED VENTING PRODUCT.
