There are various ways of heating the stove but it is always
important to be careful about what you put in the stove. See the
section on "Wood quality".
Wood quality
By quality wood we mean most well-known types of wood such
as birch, spruce and pine.
The logs should be dried so that the moisture content is no more
than 20%.
To achieve this, the logs should be cut during the late winter. They
should be split and stacked in a way that ensures good ventilation.
The wood stacks should be covered to protect the logs from rain.
The logs should be brought indoors during early autumn and
stacked/stored for use in the coming winter.
Be especially careful never to use the following materials as fuel
in your fireplace:
Household rubbish, plastic bags, etc.
Painted or impregnated timber (which is extremely toxic).
Laminated wooden planks.
Driftwood
These may harm the product and are also pollutants.
NB: Never use petrol, paraffin, methylated spirit or similar liquids
to light the fire. You may cause serious injury to yourself and
damage to the product.
Wood consumption
Use of wood, with nominal heat emission: Approx. 1,6 kg/h.
Another important factor for proper fuel consumption is that
the logs are the correct size. The size of the logs should be:
Kindling:
Length: 23-33 cm
Diameter: 2 - 5 cm
Amount per fire: 6 - 8 pieces
Daily use
Firewood (split logs):
Length: 23 - 33 cm
Diameter: Approx. 8 cm
Intervals for adding wood: Approximately every 45 minutes
Size of the fire: 1,2 kg
Amount per load: 2 pieces
Nominal heat emission is achieved when the air vent is open
approximately 57 %.
Maximum use
Maximum load: 2,9 kg/h (maximum 3 pieces/2,2 kg per load).
5.2 Ash removal
Jøtul F 164 / F 165 / F 166 / F 167 have an ash pan which makes
it easy to remove the ash.
Fig. 12
1. Scrape the ash through the grate in the base plate and into
the ash pan. Use a glove to grab the handle on the ash pan.
2. Make sure that the ash pan doesn't fill up so high that it keeps
ash from coming through the grate into the pan.
