CHIMNEY REQUIREMENTS Masonry Chimneys There are two types of chimneys suitable for the F 3 CB: When installing the F 3 CB into a masonry chimney you must conform to all of the following guidelines: 1. A code- approved masonry chimney with a flue liner. · The masonry chimney must have a fireclay liner or equivalent, with a minimum thickness of 5/8 and must be installed with refractory mortar. There must be at least ½ air space between the flue liner and chimney wall.
The manufacturers installation instructions must be followed precisely. Always maintain the proper clearance to combustibles as established by the pipe manufacturer. This clearance is usually a minimum of 2, although it may vary by manufacturer or for certain chimney components.
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. CONNECTING TO THE CHIMNEY Masonry Chimney When installing a F 3 CB into a masonry chimney through a thimble(the opening through the chimney wall to the flue), the thimble must be lined with ceramic tile or metal and be securely cemented in place.
Hearth-mount into a Masonry Fireplace Fireplace installation must also observe the proper clearances to surrounding trim and mantels (addressed in clearance section of this manual).

WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL IN A BEDROOM/SLEEPING ROOM. THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE MOBILE HOMES FLOOR, WALL, CEILING/ROOF MUST BE MAINTAINED. OPERATION Before building a fire in your new F 3 CB, please read the following section carefully and completely. FIGURE 15 Do Not Burn First this stove is designed to burn natural wood ONLY, wood that has been air-dried for a period of 6 to 14 months will provide the cleanest most efficient heat.
Complete the following steps for the proper break-in procedure for the F 3 CB: 1. Light a small fire, newspaper and kindling only, only allow the stove to reach a maximum surface temperature of 200°. Burn for approximately 1 hour. 2. Allow stove to cool to room temperature. 3. Light a second fire, allowing the stove to reach a maximum temperature of 300° for 1 hour. 4. Cool the stove to room temperature. 5. Light a third fire and gradually allow the stove to reach a surface temperature of 400° 6.
(If you have at least a 2 thick ember bed when reloading, it may be possible to close the door and immediately adjust the air control setting). The Formation of Creosote When wood is burned slowly and at low temperatures, it produces tar and other organic vapors, which combine with moisture to form creosote. The slow moving smoke carries the creosote vapors, which condense in the cooler chimney flues, and this creosote then sticks to the chimney walls.
4. Remove all remaining debris from the glass area using a wire brush. 5. Apply a small bead of gasket/stove cement and the new gasket. Do not overlap the ends of the gasket rope. 6. Center the new glass panel over the gasket and reinstall the glass clips. See figure 17. IMPORTANT: The side of the glass treated with an infrared coating (marked on the perimeter) should always be facing outward.
