Notices
• Be sure to read this entire manual before you install
or use your new Jøtul F 3.
• 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 even death.
• Jøtul recommends that you have your new Jøtul F 3
installed by a professional installer of solid fuel
burning appliances.
• Extremely hot while in operation! Keep children,
clothing and furniture away. Contact may cause skin
burns.
• Avoid creating a low pressure condition in the room
where the stove is operating. Operating an exhaust
fan or a clothes dryer could create a low pressure area,
causing poisonous gases to come out of the stove into
the room.
You can prevent low pressure conditions by providing
adequate combustion air within 24” but not closer
than 12” from the stove. Or, simply install the optional
outside air manifold system, which allows the direct
connection of air from outside the house to the stove.
• Do not use chemicals or fluids to start the fire. Some
fuels will, during combustion, separate carbon
monoxide and generate it in the burn chamber.
Carbon monoxide is toxic, so please follow the
guidelines in this manual for proper operation of your
Jøtul F 3.
• If you for some reason experience smoke “roll-out”
from the stove, it may activate smoke detectors if
installed in the house.
Do not connect this stove to any air distribution duct or
system.
Installation
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.
Reminder:
Your local officials have final authority in determining if
a proposed installation is acceptable. Any requirement,
that is requested 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.
Installing the venting
The Jøtul F 3 can be vented from the top, the rear or
from either the right or left side. Follow the instructions
below for the desired venting location.
Top exit venting
When top exit venting is desired, use a 3mm allen wrench
to remove the two set screws that secure the top casting
to the sides of the stove and lift off the top casting. Lay
the top casting on a flat surface upside down and remove
the 10mm bolt from the traverse bar and remove the
smoke outlet cover.
Reinstall the top casting, be sure to secure with the two
set screws that were removed. See figure 1.
Rear exit venting
When rear exit venting is desired it will be necessary to
“knock-out” the vent hole from the rear casting.
Remove the top casting of the stove by removing the two
3mm set screws that secures the top to the sides. The
set screws are located on the outside of the stove on the
top of each side panel.
Using a 10mm wrench remove the double rear
heatshields from the back of the stove. Remove the front
door to avoid damage to the glass. Reminder: Loss of the
door washer will result in improper door alignment when
reinstalling the door.
