Connecting To The Chimney; Masonry Chimneys; Hearthmount Into A Masonry Fireplace - Jøtul F 50 TL Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

Refractory mortar must be used at the junction of the
chimney and the pass-through liner. The pass-through
liner must not penetrate the chimney liner beyond the
inner surface of the chimney liner. Use extreme care when
constructing the hole in the chimney liner as the tiles can
shatter easily.
In Canada
The installation must conform to CAN/CSA-B365,
Installation Code for Solid Fuel Burning Appliances and
Equipment. Before proceeding be sure to consult your local
building inspector.
Common Method:
This method requires the removal of all combustible
materials from at least 18" (45.7 cm) around the chimney
connector's proposed location. A 6" round liner requires a
minimum opening 43" x 43" (109.2 x 109.2) square.
Locate the pass-through at least 18" from combustible
ceiling materials.
The space that is cleared of combustible materials must
remain empty. Sheet metal panels can be used to cover
the area. However, when using a panel on both sides of
the wall, each cover must be installed on noncombustible
spacers at least 1" from the wall. If one panel of sheet metal
is to be used it may be installed flush to the wall.
See section 5.3.1 and 5.3.2 of CAN/CSA - B365-M91. Consult
your local building inspector, authorized Jøtul Dealer,
NFPA 211 in the U.S. or CAN/CSA-B635 in Canada for other
approved wall pass-through methods.

3.0 Connecting to the Chimney

3.1 Masonry Chimney
When installing a Jøtul F 50 TL into a masonry chimney
through a "thimble" (the opening through the chimney
wall to the flue), the thimble must consist of ceramic tile or
steel and be securely cemented in place.
The chimney connector/stove pipe must slide completely
inside the thimble to the inner surface or the flue liner. It
may be necessary to make use of a thimble sleeve (a pipe
with a slightly smaller diameter than standard stove pipe).
See fig. 9.
The connector pipe or thimble sleeve must not protrude
into the flue liner or otherwise restrict draft.
Use refractory cement to seal the seam between the
chimney connector, sleeve, and thimble.
Do not connect this stove to a chimney flue servicing
another appliance of any kind.
3.2 Hearthmount into a Masonry
Fireplace
The Jøtul F 50 TL may be installed into a masonry fireplace
with a minimum opening height of 30 1/2" (77.5 c m).
NOTE: There is no short leg option. DO NOT ALTER OR
REMOVE THE LEGS.
Building code requires that the fireplace damper plate be
removed or securely fixed in the open position.
A connector pipe must then extend from the stove's flue
exit through the damper area of the fireplace and into the
chimney tile liner. See fig. 10. In any case, we recommend
that a full liner be installed through any masonry chimney
to ensure good performance.
The cross-sectional area of the flue of a chimney with no
walls exposed to the outside below the roofline may be no
more than three times the cross-sectional area of the stove
flue collar.
Connector pipe must
be flush with the
inside of the flue tile
