SEALANT
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
• 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.
• THE GAS APPLIANCE AND VENT SYSTEM MUST BE
VENTED DIRECTLY TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING
AND NEVER ATTACHED TO A CHIMNEY SERVING A
SOLID FUEL OR GAS BURNING APPLIANCE. EACH
DIRECT VENT GAS APPLIANCE MUST HAVE ITS OWN
SEPARATE VENT SYSTEM. COMMON VENT SYSTEMS
ARE PROHIBITED.
• IF VENTING SYSTEM IS DISASSEMBLED FOR ANY
REASON, REINSTALL PER THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED
FOR THE INITIAL INSTALLATION.
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.
