Installation
Safety Notices
If this solid fuel room heater is not properly installed, a
house fire may result. For your safety, follow the
installation directions. Contact the local building or fire
officials about restrictions and installation inspection
requirements in your area.
•
Burn solid wood fuel only
•
Do not use chemicals or fluids to start the fire.
Do not burn garbage or flammable fluids.
•
•
If this room heater is not properly installed, a
house fire may result. To reduce the risk of fire,
follow the installation instructions. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in
property damage, bodily injury, or loss of life.
Your local officials have final authority in determining if a
proposed installation is acceptable. Any requirement by
the local authority having jurisdiction that is not
specifically addressed in this manual, defaults to NFPA
211, and local codes in the U.S. or in Canada, CAN/CSA-
B365-M and local codes.
Contact the local building or fire officials about
restrictions and installation inspection
requirements in your area.
Assembly Before Installation
Unpack the Stove
•
•
Do not connect this stove to any air
distribution duct or system.
Inspect the stove for damage. Contact your dealer
immediately if any damage is found. Do not install the
stove if any damage is evident.
Extremely hot while in operation! Keep
children, clothing and furniture away. Contact
will cause skin burns.

•
Install smoke detectors in the living areas and
bedrooms of your home.Test them regularly and
install new batteries twice annually.
When installed in the same room as the stove, a
smoke detector should be located as far from the
stove as possible to prevent it from sounding
when adding fuel to the fire.
Flue Collar Installation
The Flue Collar is oriented in the Top Exit position. Apply
the gasket to the collar before installing the chimney
connector.
•
Avoid creating a low pressure condition in the
room where the stove is operating. Be aware
that operation of an exhaust fan or clothes
dryer can create a low pressure area and
consequently promote flow reversal through
the stove and chimney system. The chimney
and building, however, always work together
as a system - provision of outside air, directly or
indirectly to an atmospherically vented
appliance will not guarantee proper chimney
performance. Consult your local Jøtul
authorized dealer regarding specific
installation/performance issues.
Position Reversal
Follow this procedure to change the collar to a Rear Exit
position if appropriate.
1. Remove the Flue Collar by reaching through the
opening and removing the two bolts that secure it to
the top plate.
2. Using tin snips, cut out the panel from the Rear Heat
Shield for the Flue Collar to pass through. See fig. 1.
3. Remove the two screws that attach the Coverplate to
the rear outlet. Hold onto the Coverplate while
removing the second screw so that it does not fall
out. See fig. 2.
•
Jøtul recommends that this stove be installed
by a professional solid fuel technician or that
you consult one if you do the work yourself. Also,
consult your insurance company regarding any
other specific requirements.
4. Using the same screws, attach the Flue Collar to the
rear outlet and the Coverplate to the Top Plate.
5. Install the Flue Collar gasket. Remove the protective
paper from the adhesive side and apply the gasket to
the inside of the Flue Collar.

•
•
Secure all connector joints with three sheet metal
screws. The connection to the stove flue collar takes
two sheetmetal screws.
For the best performance, the chimney connector
should be as short and direct as possible, including no
more than two 90° elbows.
Cut at
these
points
•
•
The maximum vertical run of single wall stovepipe
should not exceed 10 ft. (305 cm).
The maximum horizontal run should not exceed 3 ft.
(92 cm) with a 1/4”rise per foot. Under no circumstance
should horizontal pipe be allowed to slant down toward
the chimney.
•
No part of the chimney connector may pass through
an attic or roof space, closet or other concealed space,
or through a floor or ceiling. All sections of the chimney
connectors must be accessible for cleaning. Where
passage through a wall or partition of combustible
construction is desired, the installation must conform
with NFPA 211 or CAN/CSA-B365,and is also addressed
in this manual.

Chimney Connector
Use 6” single wall or listed 6” double-wall stovepipe to
connect the stove to the chimney. Single wall stovepipe
must be black iron or stainless steel and have a minimum
thickness of 24 gauge. Do not use aluminum or galvanized
steel pipe for chimney connection - these materials are
not suitable for use with solid fuel.
Follow these guidelines regarding chimney connector
construction:
•
•
Do not use chimney connector as a chimney. It is
intended only for use as a connection device.
Each connector section must be oriented with the male
(crimped) end pointing toward the stove. See fig. 3.

USA/Canada
There must be at least 1/2” (12.7 mm) air space between
the flue liner and chimney wall.
Chimney Requirements
•
The fireclay flue liner must have a nominal size of 8” X
8” (20 cm x 20 cm), and should not be larger than 8”X
12” (20 cm x 30 cm). A round fireclay liner must have a
minimum inside diameter of 6” (15 cm) and maximum
inside diameter of 8” (20 cm). A larger chimney should
be relined with an appropriate code approved liner.
Brick or modular block must be a minimum of 4” (10
cm) nominal thickness. Stone construction must be at
least 12” (30 cm) thick.
There are two types of chimneys suitable for the Jøtul
F 100 USA :
1. A code-approved masonry chimney with a ceramic tile
or listed steel flue liner.
2. A prefabricated chimney complying with the
requirements for Type HT (2100°F) chimneys per UL
103 or ULC S629.
•
•
•
The chimney size should not be less than the cross-
sectional area of the flue collar,and not more than three
times greater than the cross-sectional area of the flue
collar.
A newly-built chimney must conform to local codes,or,
in their absence, must comply with national
regulations.
An existing chimney must be inspected by a
professional licensed chimney sweep, fire official, or
code officer to ensure that the chimney is in proper
working order.
When selecting a chimney type and the location for the
chimney in the house, keep this in mind: It is the chimney
that makes the stove work, not the stove that makes the
chimney work. This is because a chimney actually creates
a suction,called“draft”which pulls air through the stove.
•
•
No other appliance may be vented into the same flue.
An airtight clean-out door should be located at the
base of the chimney.
Several factors affect draft: chimney height, cross-
sectional area (size),and temperature of the chimney, as
well as the proximity of surrounding trees or buildings.
Prefabricated Chimneys
A prefabricated metal chimney must be tested and listed
for use with solid fuel burning appliances. High
Temperature (HT) Chimney Standard UL 103 for the U.S.
and High Temperature Standard ULC S-629 for Canada.
The manufacturer’s installation instructions must be
followed precisely.Always maintain the proper clearance
to combustibles as established by the pipe manufacturer.
This clearance is usually a minimum of 2”,although it may
vary by manufacturer or for certain chimney components.
A short exterior masonry chimney will give the poorest
performance because it will be difficult to warm the flue
and sustain the temperatures necessary to maintain draft
strength. In extremely cold climates, it may be necessary
to reline the chimney or extend the height to help establish
draft.
A tall, interior masonry chimney is easier to keep warm
and will perform the best under a variety of weather and
environmental conditions.
Chimney Height
The following guidelines give the necessary chimney
requirements based on the national code (ANSI-NFPA 211
for the US. And CSA CAN-B365 for Canada). However,
many local codes differ from the national code to take
into account climate, altitude,or other factors.Your local
building inspector is the final approving authority.Consult
them prior to installation.
The chimney must be at least 3 feet (92 cm) higher than
the highest point where it passes through the roof and at
least 2 feet (61 cm) higher than the highest part of the
roof or structure that is within 10 feet (3.05 m) of the
chimney,measured horizontally.See figure 4.
Do not connect the stove to any air distribution duct or
system.

The masonry chimney must have a fireclay liner or
equivalent, with a minimum thickness of 5/8” (14 mm)
and must be installed with refractory mortar.
Figure 4. Chimney Height Requirement.

The opening must be filled with at least 12” (30.5 cm) of
brick around a fireclay liner.The liner must be ASTM C35
or equivalent, having a minimum wall thickness of 5/8”
(16 mm).
Chimneys shorter than 14 feet (4.27 m) may not provide
adequate draft. Inadequate draft can result in smoke
spillage when loading the stove, or when the door is open.
Poor draft can also cause back puffing (ignition of gas
build-up inside the firebox) and sluggish performance.
The minimum height does not,in itself,guarantee proper
chimney performance.
The Pass-through must be at least 18” (45.7 cm) from
combustible ceiling materials.
Excessive chimney height can promote over-strong draft
resulting in high stove temperatures and short burn times.
Excessive draft can be corrected by installing a butterfly
damper.Your Jøtul dealer is an expert resource to consult
regarding draft issues or other performance-related
questions.
It will be necessary to cut wall studs, install headers, and
construct a sill frame to maintain the proper dimensions
and to support the weight of the brick.
The bricks must be solid brick with a minimum of 3 ½
inches thick (nominal 4”/ 102 mm).
Refractory mortar must be used at the junction of the
chimney and the pass-through liner.The pass-through liner
must not penetrate the chimney liner beyond the inner
surface of the chimney liner. Use extreme care when
constructing the hole in the chimney liner as the tiles can
shatter easily.
Wall Pass-Throughs
In the U.S.
The National Fire Protection Association’s publication,
NFPA 211,Standard for Chimneys,Fireplaces,Vents and Solid
Fuel Burning Appliances permits four methods for passing
through a combustible wall. Before proceeding with any
method be sure to consult with your local building officials
to discuss any local code requirements.
In Canada
The installation must conform to CAN/CSA-B365,
Installation Code for Solid Fuel Burning Appliances and
Equipment. Before proceeding be sure to consult your
local building inspector.
Common Method:
See Figure 5. Remove all combustible materials from the
pass-through area ( around the chimney connector), a
minimum 12” (30.5 cm). A 6” (15.2 cm) diameter connector
will require a 31” x 31” (78.7 x 78.7 cm) square opening.
Common Method:
This method requires the removal of all combustible
materials from at least 18” (45.7 cm) around the chimney
connector’s proposed location. A 6”round liner requires
a minimum opening 43” x 43” (109.2 x 109.2) square.

The space that is cleared of combustible materials must
remain empty. Sheet metal panels can be used to cover
the area. However, when using a panel on both sides of
the wall, each cover must be installed on noncombustible
spacers at least 1” from the wall. If one panel of sheet
metal is to be used it may be installed flush to the wall.

the first flue
When installing a Jøtul F 100 USA into a masonry chimney
through a “thimble” (the opening through the chimney
wall to the flue), the thimble must consist of ceramic tile
or steel and be securely cemented in place.
Damper is
sealed with a
steel plate
and sealant
The chimney connector/stove pipe must slide completely
inside the thimble to the inner surface or the flue liner. It
may be necessary to make use of a thimble sleeve (a pipe
with a slightly smaller diameter than standard stove pipe).
See figure 6.
Connector pipe must
be flush with the
inside of the flue tile

Figure 6. Masonry Chimney Thimble.
A new sheet metal damper block-off plate must be
installed around the connector pipe at the damper frame
and sealed with the proper sealant (usually High-Temp
Silicone).
The connector pipe or thimble sleeve must not protrude
into the flue liner or otherwise restrict draft.
Use refractory cement to seal the seam between the
chimney connector,sleeve,and thimble.
Do not connect this stove to a chimney flue servicing
another appliance of any kind.
Hearthmount into a Masonry
Fireplace
The Jøtul F 100 USA may be installed into a masonry
fireplace with a minimum opening height of 22 1/2”
(572 mm).
Building code requires that the fireplace damper plate be
removed or securely fixed in the open position. A
connector pipe must then extend from the stove’s flue
exit through the damper area of the fireplace and into
the chimney tile liner. See figure 7.

Prefabricated Chimneys
Clearance to Combustibles
When connecting the Jøtul F 100 USA to a prefabricated
metal chimney always follow the pipe manufacturer’s
instructions and be sure to use the components that are
required. This usually includes a “smoke pipe adapter”
that is secured to the bottom section of the metal chimney
and allows the chimney pipe to be secured to it with two
sheet metal screws. See figure 8.

2. Any noncombustible material with use of the bottom
heat shield.
Figure 8. Prefabricated Listed Type HT Chimney.
All forms of protection must include a noncombustible
surface extending forward from the glass panel at least
16” for the U.S., or 18” (46cm) for Canada. Protection
must extend 8” (21 cm) from the sides and rear for both:
the U.S. and Canada.
This will result in a minimum floor protection of 37”W x
38” D for the U.S. or 37” W x 40” D for Canada. See
figure 9.
In a rear vent installation, the floor protection must also
extend under the stove pipe a minimum of 2” (5 cm)
beyond either side of the pipe. See figure 9.

Notice: Many manufacturers have developed woodstove
accessories that permit clearance reduction. Use only
those accessories that have been tested by an
independent laboratory and carry the laboratory’s testing
mark. Be sure to follow all of the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Clearances to Walls and Ceilings
The clearances listed and diagramed in this manual have
been tested to UL and ULC standards and are the
minimum clearances to combustible materials
specifically established for the Jøtul F 100 USA.
A combustible surface is anything that can burn (i.e. sheet
rock, wall paper, wood, fabrics etc.). These surfaces are
not limited to those that are visible and also include
materials that are behind noncombustible materials.
60”
If you are not sure of the combustible nature of a material,
consult your local fire officials.
153 cm
Remember: “Fire Resistant” materials are considered
combustible; they are difficult to ignite, but will burn. Also
“Fire-rated” sheet rock is also considered combustible.

Controls on the Jøtul F 100 USA
Operation
Combustion air is controlled by the Primary Air Lever,
located above the Loading Door. The lever actuates a
shutter over the air inlet which regulates the volume of
primary air entering the firebox and controls heat output
and burn time. See fig. 13.
Please read the following section before building a fire in
your new Jøtul F 100 USA.
Use Solid Wood Fuel Only
When first starting or reviving the fire: the primary control
lever should be at the far right position, which allows the
maximum amount of air into the stove. The greater the
amount of air entering the stove, the hotter and faster
the fire will burn.
First this stove is designed to burn natural wood only.
Wood that has been air-dried for a period of 6 to 14 months
will provide the cleanest, most efficient heat.
Do not burn:
• Coal
• Treated or painted wood
Moving the lever to the left reduces the airflow into the
• Garbage
• Chemical Chimney cleaners
stove which prolongs the fire at a lower heat output.
• Cardboard • Colored paper
• Solvents
• Any synthetic fuel or logs
• Drift wood • Laminated wood
Air Flow / Performance
Primary air enters the firebox directly above the glass
panel on the door. The incoming air creates a turbulent
barrier or “airwash” between the glass and the fire.
Reducing the flow of primary air directly reduces the
effectiveness of the airwash. Determining the primary
air setting for the best overall performance for your
particular needs and installation will best be established
over time through trial and error.
The burning of any of these materials can result in the
release of toxic fumes. Never use gasoline, gasoline-type
lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar
liquids to start or“freshen-up”the fire. Always keep such
liquids away from the heater at all times.
Important: Never build or allow the fire to rest directly on
the glass panels. The logs should always be spaced at
least one inch from the glass to allow for proper air flow
within the firebox.
Break-In Procedure
The Jøtul F 100 USA is constructed of cast iron and high
temperature furnace cement. This type of construction
requires the stove to be “broken-in” gradually so that
heat expansion does not occur too quickly and cause
damage.The following steps describe the proper break-
in procedure for the Jøtul F 100 USA. Use a magnetic stove-
top thermometer to monitor stove temperature, placed
directly on the top plate.
1
Light a small fire of newspaper and kindling. Only
allowthe stove to reach a maximum surface
temperature of 200°F (93° C). Burn for approximately
1 hour.
2
3
Allow the stove to cool to room temperature.
Light a second fire, allowing the stove to reach a
maximum temperature of 300°F (149°C) for 1 hour.
Cool the stove to room temperature.
4
5
Light a third fire and gradually allow the stove to reach
a surface temperature of 400°F (204°C)
Cool stove to room temperature. This completes the
“break-in”procedure.
Figure 13. Slide the Air Control Lever to the right to increase
combustion air and to the left to decrease combustion air.
6
Note: If the temperature exceeds the limit during any
break-in fire, move the primary air control lever all the
way to the left to shut off the air supply completely. It is
normal that the stove top temperature will continue to
climb until the fuel burns down somewhat. Once the fire
14
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
USA/Canada
is out and the stove has cooled to room temperature,
continue the break-in procedure.Never attempt to reduce
the temperature by removing burning logs from the fire.
Adding Fuel
When reloading the stove while it is still hot and a bed of
hot embers still exist, follow this reloading procedure:
•
•
Always wear gloves when tending to the stove.
Push the air control lever to the full open position (far
right).
Breakin Odors: It is normal for a new painted stove to
emit odor and smoke during the first few fires. This is
caused by curing of the high temperature paint and will
diminish with each fire. Open a window or door to provide
additional ventilation to alleviate this condition.
•
•
Wait a few seconds before opening the door.
Use a stove tool or poker to distribute the hot embers
equally around the firebox.
•
•
•
Load the fuel, usually with smaller logs first.
Close the door, be sure to latch the door tightly.
Wait 5 – 10 minutes before adjusting the primary air
to the desired heat output setting. (If you have at
least a 2” thick ember bed when reloading, it may be
possible to close the door and immediately adjust the
air control setting).
Enamel Stove: You may notice moisture condensation on
the surface ot he stove during the first few fires. To
avoid permanent spotting of the surface, use a soft towel
to wipe the moisture away.
Starting and Maintaining a Fire
Burn only solid wood directly on the bottom grate of the
stove. Do not elevate the fire in any way.
The Formation of Creosote
1. With the primary air control lever in the full open
position (to the right), start with several sheets of
crumbled newspaper placed directly on the grate. On
top of the newspaper, place several pieces of small
dry kindling (approx. 1” in diameter) with two to three
larger logs (approx. 3” to 5” in diameter) on top.
2. Light the fire and close the door, slowly building the
fire by adding larger and larger logs. Be sure to follow
the break-in procedure before creating a hot fire that
might damage the stove.
When wood is burned slowly and at low temperatures, it
produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine
with moisture to form creosote. The slow moving smoke
carries the creosote vapors, which condense in the cooler
chimney flues, and this creosote then sticks to the chimney
walls.
The creosote that accumulates in the chimney is highly
flammable and is the fuel of chimney fires. To prevent
chimney fires it is important to have the chimney and
chimney connector pipe inspected and/or cleaned
semiannually. A qualified chimney sweep or other
authorized service person can provide this service.
3. Once the stove has reached a surface temperature
range of between 400° and 600°,(204°C -316°C),adjust
the primary air control lever as necessary to generate
the heat output and burn time desired.
We recommend use of a magnetic stove top
thermometer to monitor the surface temperature of
the stove. The optimum surface temperature range
for the most efficient burn is between 400° and 600°
(204°C -316°C).
It is also important to remember that chimney size,
temperature and height all affect draft which in turn
affects the formation of creosote. Be sure to follow the
installation and operation guidelines established in this
manual.
You can also monitor stove performance through the
window. Peak combustion efficiency occurs when
exhaust gas is burned at the baffle in the top of the
firebox. This is apparent as yellow flames appearing
at the secondary air ports in the underside of the
baffle plate.
Never overfire the stove. If any part of the stove or
chimney glows, you are overfiring. A house fire or serious
damage to the stove or chimney could result. If this
condition occurs, immediately close the air control.

Maintenance
Ash Removal
Glass Removal or Replacement
The glass may be removed with the door in place.
1. Hold the glass in place while you remove the glass clips
from the inside of the door. Lift the glass panel off of
the two bottom tabs in the door.
Ash removal will be required periodically, depending on
how frequently the stove is used. Avoid letting the ash
accumulate to spill over the Ash Fettle. For your protection,
always wear safety gloves when handling the ashes. Use
an ash shovel to remove the accumulation from the
bottom of the firebox. The Fettle may be lifted from the
front of the firebox to aid in ash removal.
2. Center the new glass panel over the gasket and reinstall
the glass clips. See figure 14.
3. It may be necessary to retighten the glass clips after
the stove has be burned and the gasketing has been
seated.
Important: It is extremely important to tighten the glass
clips gradually and alternately. Uneven or too great
pressure can damage the glass.
Ashes should only be placed in a metal container equipped
with a tight sealing lid. The container should be placed on
a noncombustible floor or on the ground, well away from
all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the
ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally
dispersed, they should be kept in the closed container until
all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
Glass Care
Cleaning
On occasion it will be necessary to clean the carbon
deposits and fly ash off of the glass. If the carbon and fly
ash are allowed to remain on the glass for an extended
period of time it could eventually cause the glass to
become etched and cloudy. Any creosote that might
develop on the glass will burn off during the next hot fire.
Figure 14. Glass and Gasket Replacement
Follow this cleaning procedure:
1. Glass needs to be completely cool.
2. Only use a cleaner that is specifically designed for this
purpose. The use of abrasives will damage the glass
and ultimately leave the glass frosted.
3. Rinse and dry glass completely before burning the
stove.
Caution! Always operate the door slowly and carefully to
avoid cracking or breaking the glass. Never use the door
to push wood into the firebox. If the glass becomes cracked
or broken follow the replacement procedure below.
Never operate the stove with a cracked or broken glass
panel.
Important: Replace glass only with ceramic glass panel
specifically designed for the Jøtul F100. Do not use
substitutes. Replacement glass is available from your local
Jøtul dealer.

General Maintenance
As with your car, regular maintenance will prolong the
life of your stove and ensure satisfactory performance.
At least once per year you should perform the following
maintenance procedures:
Stove-Top Thermometer (# 5002)
Jøtul recommends the use of a magnetic stove-top
thermometer to monitor the surface temperature of the
stove.
•
•
•
Thoroughly clean the stove. Use a soft cloth with soap
and water to clean enamel surfaces. Be sure the stove
is cold, before cleaning.
The optimum surface temperature range for the most
0

efficient performance is 400 F - 600 F (205 C - 316 C).
Empty stove of all soot and ashes. Only use a vacuum
for this job if the vacuum is specifically designed for
ashes.
Flue Collar Heat Shield (# 154996)
Inspect the stove seams. Use a utility light to inspect
the stove inside and out for cracks or leaks. Replace
all cracked parts and repair any cement leaks with
furnace cement.
This unobtrusive heat shield must be installed on stoves
using double wall chimney connector to provide additional
protection to combustible materials from heat radiating
from the flue collar of the stove. The insulating properties
of double wall pipe result in higher flue temperatures in
this area than are generated in single wall connectors.
Gaskets
Check door and glass panel gaskets for tightness.To check
the seal of the front door, close and latch the door on a
dollar bill and slowly try to pull the dollar bill free. You
should feel resistance as you pull. If it can be easily
removed, the seal is too loose. Check several spots around
the door.
Gasket Replacement
1. Use pliers and a putty knife to remove the old gasket
from the door.
2. Thoroughly clean the channel with a wire brush.
3. Apply a small bead of cement to the channel.
4. Gently press the new gasket into the cement to seat
it in the channel. Close and latch the door and then
reopen.Wipe away any excess cement that may have
squeezed out from around the gasket.

Chimney System
The Jøtul F 100 USA is designed to burn cleanly and
efficiently when used according to the guidelines in this
manual. In order to maintain proper performance, you
should inspect the chimney and chimney connector at
least twice a year and clean when creosote and fly ash
deposits exceed 1/4”in any part of the system. Failure to
keep the chimney system free of creosote and build up
could result in a serious chimney fire.
