Wall Shields - Jøtul F 3 USA Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

USA/Canada
Clearances to walls and ceilings
The following clearances have been tested to UL and ULC
standards and are the minimum clearances specifically
established for the Jøtul F 3. (See next page)
The following charts and diagrams give the required
clearances you must maintain when installing the
Jøtul F 3 near combustible surfaces.
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 non-combustible materials.
If you are not sure of the combustible nature of a
material, consult your local fire officials.
Remember: "Fire resistant" materials are considered
combustible; they are difficult to ignite, but will burn.
Also "fire-rated" sheet rock is also considered
combustible.
Contact your local building officials about restrictions
and installation requirements in your area.
Using shields to reduce clearances
Pipe shields: When using listed pipe shields to reduce the
connector clearance to combustibles, it must start 1"
above the lowest exposed point of the connect pipe and
extend vertically a minimum of 25" above the top surface
of the stove.
Double wall pipe: Listed double wall pipe is an acceptable
alternative to connector pipe heatshields.
Wall-mounted protection: When reducing clearances
through the use of wall mounted protection:
In the U.S. Refer to NFPA 211, standard for chimneys,
fireplaces, vents and solid fuel burning appliances, for
acceptable materials, proper sizing and construction
guidelines.
In Canada, refer to CAN/CSA-B365, installation code for
solid-fuel burning appliances and equipment, also for
acceptable materials, proper sizing and construction
guidelines.
Stove mounted rear heatshield is standard equipment
on all Jøtul F 3`s. No other stove mounted heat shield
may be used.
