5Installation
Requirements
LocationHearth Requirements

In selecting the location, the aesthetic and functional use of the appliance are primary concerns.
However, proper venting systems and access to thefuel supply are also important issues. Due to thehigh surface temperatures, you must also consider
the proximity of traffic areas, furniture, draperies,
etc.

The Firelight gas stove CANNOT be installed directly
on carpeting, vinyl, linoleum or Pergo®.

This appliance may be located on or nearconventional construction materials. HOWEVER,
always maintain the proper clearances to combustibles, as this provides adequate ventilation air
around the appliance.

If it is desired to install this appliance on any
combustible material OTHER THAN WOOD, a floor
pad must be installed that is either metal, wood or alisted hearth pad. This floor protection must extend
the full width and depth of the appliance. It is notnecessary to remove the carpeting, vinyl or linoleum
from underneath the floor protection. See Fig. 1.

The following clearances and hearth requirements are the minimum requirements when
installing the Firelight gas stove near or on combustible surfaces. Always provide adequate accessaround the appliance for servicing and proper
operation.

24”(610 mm)

A combustible surface is anything that can burn(i.e. sheet rock, wall paper, wood, fabrics etc.). Thesesurfaces are not limited to those that are visible andalso include materials that are behind non-combustibles.
If you are not sure of the combustible nature ofa 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 considered combustible.

Vent Requirements

Vent Restriction

There are three types of venting configurations
approved for use with the Firelight gas stove:• Vertical Termination• Hearthmount Co-Linear (Vertical Termination)• Horizontal Termination
The GF600 Firelight is approved for use with thevent systems listed below. Use parts of one manufacturer only - DO NOT MIX VENT COMPONENTSFROM DIFFERENT MANUFACTURERS IN THE SAMESYSTEM.
• Simpson Dura-Vent GS• Amerivent Corporation• Security Vent Ltd.
• Selkirk Metalbestos
Installation of any components not manufactured or approved by Jøtul or failure to meet all
clearance requirements will void all warranties andcould result in property damage or bodily injury.
The approved vent configurations described inthis manual are derived from extensive testingunder controlled laboratory conditions. Gas appliance performance can be negatively affected byvariables present in the installation environment, i.e:
atmospheric pressure, strong prevailing winds,
adjacent structures and trees, snow accumulation,etc. These conditions should be taken into consideration by the installer and stove owner when planning the vent system design.
IMPORTANT• JOINT SEALING REQUIREMENT:
Apply a 1/8” bead of hightemperature (750°F) sealant to
the male section of the innervent pipe. See Fig. 9. The
cement should form a seal
between the inner andouter pipes.

Exhaust Restrictor Plate Installation• Both Exhaust Restrictor Plates (#129642) MUST
be installed in all Co-linear vent systems and any
vertically terminated vent run exceeding 7 feet
(210 cm) in length.

Gas Connection
NOTE: IF THE OPTIONAL BLOWER KIT (# 129161) IS
TO BE INSTALLED ON THE STOVE AT THE TIME OF THE
INSTALLATION OR IN THE FUTURE, THE GAS SUPPLYLINE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AS CLOSE TO THE FLOOR
AS POSSIBLE. USE OF A 90° ELBOW DIRECTLY OFF THE
VALVE TO ALLOW FOR ADEQUATE CLEARANCE FOR
THE BLOWER. See Figure 15.

Leak test:

The gas supply line connection is made to thevalve just inside the left rear leg. The Gas supply line
should be 3/8" or 1/2" diameter, or the appropriate
size to provide sufficient gas pressure to the valve
regardless of the input setting.

4. If bubbles appear at any connection or seam or agas odor is detected immediately turn gas control
knob to the OFF position.

The use of Flexible Gas Appliance Connectors is
acceptable in many areas in the U.S., however,Canadian methods vary depending on local code.
ALL INSTALLATIONS MUST COMPLY WITH LOCALCODE OR IN THE ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODE, MUSTCOMPLY WITH THE MOST RECENT EDITION OF THE
NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 OR
CAN-B149.

1. Mix a 50-50 solution of water and dish soap.
2. Light appliance- see lighting instructions on page
22 of this manual or on the stove’s rating plate.
3. Brush or spray all joints and connections with thesoapy water solution.

5. Tighten or reconnect the leaking joint and retest
for any gas leaks.

Gas Pressure

All codes require a gas shutoff valve (gas cock)and union to be installed in the supply line and in
the same room as the appliance for servicing andmaintenance. See Figure 17.

It is important that the correct pressure is established at the time of the installation. Proper gas
pressure provides a consistent flow of gas to theappliance and is instrumental in checking for gas
leaks. The gas control valve on the stove is equippedwith pressure test points for gauge connections. The
gauge connections are located on the front of thevalve under the On/Off/Pilot- knob. See Fig. 18.
Gauge connections are identified by:

T-handle gas cocks are required in Massachusetts in compliance with Code 248 CMR.

• E for inlet or supply pressure ( the amount of gas
coming to the valve.)

Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools
and sealing compounds (for propane units be sure touse compounds that are propane resistant). Turn on
gas supply and test for gas leaks using a soapy water
solution. Never use an open flame to check forleaks.

• A for manifold pressure (the amount of gas thatis coming out of the valve to the burner.)
ALWAYS TEST PRESSURES WITH VALVE CONTROLKNOB SET ON HIGH.

When installing the GF 600 DV Firelight gas stove inhigh altitude situations (above 2500') it becomes
necessary to compensate for the thinner air (lessvolume of oxygen per cubic foot). High altitudes
affect the atmospheric pressure and heat value ofgaseous fuels. Lower oxygen content in the air andlower gas viscosity require the use of a different
orifice to achieve efficient, clean combustion at theburner tube.

In the U.S.,
THE DERATING KIT MUST BE INSTALLED BY AN
AUTHORIZED SERVICE TECHNICIAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS AND ALL CODES AND REQUIREMENTS OF
THE AUTHORITY HAVING JURISDICTION. THE
INFORMATION STICKER MUST BE FILLED OUT BY
THE INSTALLER AND ADHERED TO THE APPLIANCE
AT THE TIME OF THE CONVERSION. THE QUALIFIEDSERVICE AGENCY PERFORMING THIS WORK ASSUMES RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS DERATING.

In Canada,This unit has been tested for installation at highaltitudes in accordance with Canadian test standard CAN/CGA-2.17.
THE DERATING SHALL BE CARRIED OUT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE PROVINCIAL AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION AND IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE
CAN1-B-149.1 AND .2 INSTALLATION CODE.
For installations from 610 - 1370 meters (2,0004,500 ft.) the orifice size is 3.3 mm for natural gas
and #48 mm for propane.
SEE THE HIGH ALTITUDE ORIFICE CHART on thepage 19. For high altitude installations, consult yourlocal gas distributor or the authority having jurisdiction for proper rating methods. If the installer
must convert the unit to adjust for varying altitudes, the information sticker must be filled out by
the installer and applied to the appliance at thetime of the conversion.

Derating Procedure
To derate this unit, install the appropriate orifice per
the High Altitude chart.
1. Remove the two ¼” hex head screw that holds
the burner tube/log support to the bottom of thestove.
2. Remove the burner tube/log support to expose
the main burner orifice.

Air Shutter Adjustment / Flame
Appearance
The GF 600 DV FIRELIGHT gas stove is shipped fromthe factory equipped as a NATURAL GAS STOVE. If
the stove is converted for propane, it will be necessary to adjust the air shutter on the burner tube toachieve the proper gas to air mixture. The proper air
shutter settings are:

3. Remove the orifice and replace with the appropriate one from the high altitude kit.

1/2” open for natural

4. Be sure to attach the high altitude conversion
sticker provided with the kit to the rating plate on
the appliance.

The air shutter can also help achieve the desired
flame appearance. Generally, flame appearance is amatter of preference, however most people enjoy awarm yellowish flame.

Air Shutter Too Open - the appliance will
generate a flame that is blue and transparent, or an“anemic” flame.
Air Shutter Too Closed - the appliance will
generate very long yellow flames resulting in soot.
Sooting produces black deposits on the logs, on theinside walls of the appliance, and potentially on theexterior termination cap.
Sooting is caused by incomplete combustion in
the flames and lack of combustion air entering the
air shutter opening.
To adjust the air shutter, remove the burner
tube and using a phillips head screwdriver loosen
the screw at the air shutter and adjust accordingly.
Be sure to retighten the screw that holds the air
shutter setting. Reassemble the stove and close thedoor. Allow stove to burn 30 minutes on the HIGH
setting, observing the flame continuously. If the flame
appears weak, slow, or sooty, repeat the processdescribed above until the flame is as desired.

1. PURGING THE GAS LINE: When lighting theappliance for the first time, it will take a few
moments to clear the gas line of air. Once thispurge is complete, the appliance will operate as
described in the lighting instructions. See theinside back cover of this manual or the stove
Rating Plate attached the bottom of the stove. All
subsequent lightings of the stove will not require
purging the gas line unless the supply line is shut off.

Use only a 750 millivolt DC two-wire circuit thermostat, placed in the same room as the heater,
typically 5’ off the floor. Avoid drafty areas or any
area that may affect the accuracy of the thermostat.
The thermostat should be connected to thestove using a minimum of 16 gauge wire with amaximum length of 35 feet of wire.
Connect the two thermostat wire leads to thetwo lower terminals on the terminal block locatedont the valve. Do not overtighten the connections.
IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO DISCONNECT ANY OTHERWIRES. See Fig. 22.
At the thermostat, the two wires should beconnected to the two connection screws on thethermostat base plate per the manufacturer’s
instructions.

2. PILOT FLAME: The pilot flame should be steady not lifting or floating. The flame should be blue incolor around the pilot hood, with traces of yellow
toward the outer edges.
The pilot flame should engulf the top 3/8” of thethermopile (to generate millivolt current) and the
top 1/8” of the thermocouple. The pilot flame
should project out of the pilot hood 1” at all threeports. See Figs. 23.

For thermostatic operation, the On/Off/T-Statswitch must be in the T-stat position, and the pilot
light must be on.

Remote Control
When using a remote, the remote receiver should
be wired to the terminal block the same way thethermostat would be. See the instructions above.

Maintenance
The GF 600 DV Firelight gas stove and its venting
system should be inspected before use and at least
annually by a qualified service technician.

Record the following information to help yourdealer determine what you will need should you
ever require parts and service.

IMPORTANT:ALWAYS TURN OFF THE GAS SUPPLY TO
THE STOVE BEFORE ANY SERVICE WORKIS PERFORMED ON THE STOVE.
General cleaning: The firebox should be vacuumedout annually to remove any surface build up. Be
sure to vacuum or wipe off the pilot assembly andburner orifice and burner tube. Also, when vacuuming the log set, be sure to handle it carefully as it isvery fragile.
Gasket inspection: It is important that the glass
gasket be inspected at least annually. Examine therope gasket for signs of deterioration and makesure the gasket has a positive seal. This is important to prevent combustion gases from escaping
into the room. Replace the gasket if necessary.
