INSTALLING THE OPTIONAL
WALL THERMOSTAT OR REMOTE:
When installing a wall mounted thermostat to
the Allagash, it must be a 750 millivolt DC two-
wire circut thermostat. The thermostat should
be placed in the same room as the heater, typically
5 off the floor. Avoid drafty areas or any area
that may effect the accuracy of the thermostat.
The thermostat should be connected to the
Allagash using a minimum of 16 gauge wire with
a maximum length of 35 feet of wire.
Connect the two thermostat wire leads to the two
lower terminals on the terminal block located
directly above the ignitor button. Do not
overtighten the connections. IT IS NOT
NECESSARY TO DISCONNNECT ANY
OTHER WIRES. See Figure 12.
For the thermostat to work the On/Off/T-Stat
switch on the back of the stove must be in the
T-stat position, and the pilot light must be running,
as it is the power source for the thermostat.
At the thermostat, the two wires should be
connected to the two connections screws on the
thermostat base plate per the manufacturers
instructions.
Remote: When using a remote, the remote
receiver should be wired to the terminal block
the same way the thermostat would be. See the
instructions above.
SPILL SWITCH:
The Allagash B-Vent gas stove is equipped with a
vent
SPILL SWITCH. This switch stops gas flow
to the main burner in the event that the appliance
is not vented or if the venting is blocked.
The spill switch is an important safety device
located on the draft hood of the appliance and is
wired directly to the thermocouple (power source
for the stove). The spill switch is a bimetal
sensor that is heat sensitive. In the event that
the venting is not carrying the exhaust up and
out, the heat from the exhaust will trigger the
switch and stop the electrical current to the valve;
thereby stopping gas flow to the main burner.
Spillage: Condition of flue gases failing to exit
the venting system properly and instead flowing
out of the relief opening of the draft hood and
into the dwelling. Condition calls for
immediate examination of the appliance and
venting system and corrective action.

Spillage usually occurs due to incorrct vent size,
or incorrct installation. Be sure to read all of the
installation requirements addressed in this manual
for the proper and safe installation of your
Allagash B-Vent gas stove.
Unexplained outages can be the result of the spill
switch. If you experience unexplained outages,
contact your local Jøtul dealer for assistance.
ANY SERVICE TO THE SAFETY SPILL SWITCH
MUST BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED SERVICE
AGENCY.
CAUTION:
