Location
In selecting a location for the stove, consider the following points: 1) Heat
distribution 2) Vent termination requirements 3) Gas supply line routing 4)
Traffic areas, furniture, draperies, etc. The GF 300 DV may be located on or
near conventional construction materials, however, proper clearance to
combustibles must be maintained in order to provide adequate air circulation
around the appliance. Also, it is important to provide adequate access around
the stove for servicing and proper operation. The clearance and hearth
specifications listed in this manual are the minimum requirements for
combustible material. A combustible material 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 may be located behind
non-combustibles. 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 considered combustible.
Hearth Requirements
This appliance CANNOT be installed directly on carpeting, vinyl, linoleum or
wood laminate flooring, such as Pergo .
If this appliance will be installed on any combustible ® material OTHER THAN
WOOD, a floor pad must be installed that is either metal, wood, ceramic tile,
stone, or a listed hearth pad. This floor protection must extend the full
width and depth of the appliance. It is not necessary to remove carpeting,
vinyl or linoleum from underneath the floor protection. See fig. 1. Stove and Vent Clearance
Requirements
The clearances specified and diagrammed here are established from the stove
body. The safety barrier has no affect on clearances to combustible material.
Minimum Clearances from the Stove to Combustibles: See figs. 2-3.

- Olympia Chimney Supply, Inc. (Ventis Direct Vent)
Use parts of one manufacturer only – DO NOT MIX VENT COMPONENTS FROM DIFFERENT
MANUFACTURERS IN THE SAME SYSTEM.
Installation of any components not manufactured or approved by Jøtul or
failure to meet all clearance requirements will void all warranties and could
result in property damage, bodily injury, or serious fire. The approved vent
configurations described in this manual are derived from extensive testing
under controlled laboratory conditions. Gas appliance performance can be
negatively affected by variables 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 HIGH-TEMPERATURE SEALANT OR MIL-PAC® TO THE MALE SECTION OF THE INNER VENT PIPE. THE CEMENT SHOULD FORM A SEAL BETWEEN THE INNER AND OUTER PIPES. SEE FIG. 5.
- NEVER MODIFY ANY VENTING COMPONENT, OR USE ANY DAMAGED VENTING PRODUCT.
- THE GAS APPLIANCE AND VENT SYSTEM MUST BE VENTED DIRECTLY TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING AND NEVER ATTACHED TO A CHIMNEY SERVING A SOLID FUEL OR GAS BURNING APPLIANCE. EACH DIRECT VENT GAS APPLIANCE MUST HAVE ITS OWN SEPARATE VENT SYSTEM. COMMON VENT SYSTEMS ARE PROHIBITED.
- IF THE VENTING SYSTEM IS DISASSEMBLED FOR ANY REASON, REINSTALL PER THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED FOR THE INITIAL INSTALLATION.
Vent Restriction
The GF 300 DV is equipped with an Exhaust Restrictor Plate which enables you
to regulate the flow of exhaust gas. The plate prevents overly strong draft
that can cause poor combustion and weak flame picture. Follow the guidelines
below, and on the following pages, to determine the correct restrictor plate
setting for your particular installation configuration.
Exhaust Restrictor
The Exhaust Restrictor is an adjustable shutter located at the top right side
of the firebox. It is adjusted by moving a pivot pin into one of four
positions. It is set in the FULLY OPEN (D) position at the factory. See Fig.
7. The four positions correlate to the termination zones (A,B,C,D) diagramed
in figures 9-12. Consult these Vent Window diagrams on pages 10-11 to
determine the setting you should use. Additional restriction may be needed
depending the overall vent height. If necessary, use Simpson Dura-Vent
Restrictor Disk #929 or a similar part from the appropriate vent manufacturer.
Adjusting Exhaust Restrictor Plate:
- Use the Vent Window diagrams to determine which setting position to use.
- Remove the Top Plate.
- Locate the pivot pin at the right side of the firebox top. Use a 7 mm or 9/32 nut driver to loosen the nut on the pivot pin and then push the pin to the left to disengage it from the current factory-set position. Move the pin forward and into the slot appropriate for your specific vent configuration. See figs. 6 and 7.
- Tighten the lock nut and replace the Top Plate.
Vertical Vent Termination
The Jøtul GF 300 DV can be vertically vented through a ceiling or to a roof
termination with the following guidelines:
-
The termination should fall within the shaded areas of the grids depicted in the Vent Window diagrams on pages 10 – 11.
-
Maximum Vertical run should not exceed 35 ft. (10.66 m).
-
Minimum Vertical run must be at least 8 ft. (2.43 m).
-
Maximum Colinear Horizontal run is 2 ft. (61 cm).
-
Vent Terminus Clearance: In no case shall any discharge opening on the cap be less than 18 in. (610 mm) horizontally from the roof surface.
-
Steep roofs, nearby trees, and predominantly windy conditions can contribute to poor draft and/or promote down-draft occurances.
Increasing the height of the vent may alleviate these conditions. -
Use Wall Straps to support an offset pipe run at intervals of three feet to avoid excessive stress on the offsets.
-
Elbows: Four 45°, or two 90° elbows may be used. Do not include the 45° elbow attached to the stove. Whenever possible use 45° elbows instead of 90° elbows as they are less restrictive to exhaust gas and intake air flow.
-
A firestop is required at every floor. The opening should be framed to 10″ X 10″ inside dimension.
-
Any venting that is exposed above the first floor, regardless of attic space or living space, must be enclosed. Always maintain the required 1″ clearance from
all sides of the vertical vent system.
Vent Windows for Natural Gas
-
ALL VENTING MUST TERMINATE (END) WITHIN ONE OF THE SHADED AREAS.
-
SET STOVE EXHAUST RESTRICTOR TO THE POSITION THAT CORRESPONDS TO THE VENT TERMINATION AREA IN THE DIAGRAM
ABOVE. When termination is exactly on a division line, use the less restrictive position. For example, if termination is at 20 ft./10ft., restriction will be set at Position B. -
ALWAYS MAINTAIN THE PROPER CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES.
-
UP TO FOUR 45° ELBOWS OR TWO 90° ELBOWS MAY BE USED IN ADDITION TO THE STARTER ELBOW. A HORIZONTAL RUN, HOWEVER,
MUST BE REDUCED BY 5 FEET FOR EACH ADDITIONAL ELBOW, WHETHER 45° OR 90°. -
*NG MINIMUM VENT IS 12” VERTICAL X 6” HORIZONTAL (NG ONLY).
The circled letter designations in the vent diagram correspond to the Exhaust Restrictor Setting on the stove. First, determine which vent termination zone is appropriate for your installation and fuel type, then adjust the restrictor to the corresponding position as shown in figure 7, page 9.
COLINEAR VENT
- VENTING MUST TERMINATE(END) WITHIN THE SHADEDAREA.
- Adjust the Exhaust Restrictor to position B for any NG colinear termination.
- Max. Offset: 2 ft. (610 mm)
Vent Windows for Propane
- VENTING MUST TERMINATE (END) WITHIN ONE OF THE DESIGNATED AREAS.
- SET STOVE EXHAUST RESTRICTOR TO THE POSITION THAT CORRESPONDS TO THE VENT TERMINATION AREA IN THE DIAGRAM ABOVE. When termination is exactly on a division line, use the less restrictive position. For example, if termination is at 10 ft./5ft., restriction will be set at Position D.
- ALWAYS MAINTAIN THE PROPER CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES.
- UP TO FOUR 45° ELBOWS OR TWO 90° ELBOWS MAY BE USED IN ADDITION TO THE STARTER ELBOW. A HORIZONTAL RUN, HOWEVER,
MUST BE REDUCED BY 5 FEET FOR EACH ADDITIONAL ELBOW, WHETHER 45° OR 90°
The circled letter designations in the vent diagram correspond to the Exhaust Restrictor Setting on the stove. First, determine which vent termination zone is appropriate for your installation and fuel type, then adjust the stove restrictor plate to the corresponding position as shown in Figure 7, page 9.
COLINEAR VENT
- VENTING MUST TERMINATE (END) WITHIN THE SHADED AREA.
- Adjust the Exhaust Restrictor to position C for a vertical colinear termination.
- Max. Offset: 2 ft. (610 mm)
Co-linear Vent Installation
This appliance may be vented through a masonry or Class A prefabricated
chimney using a Co-linear Flexible lining system approved for use with a
solid-fuel burning
fireplace. When installed in the manner described below, this system can
improve the performance of the appliance in cold climate situations, as well
as simplify the vent installation. See figs. 14 – 15.
These installation requirements must be followed:
-
Use the guidelines for Co-linear Vent Termination appropriate for your gas type on pages 10 – 11.
-
Prior to the installation the chimney flue must be thoroughly cleaned and inspected by a qualified chimney service person.
-
Prefabricated chimneys must be UL 103 or ULC S-629 listed and have a minimum INSIDE diameter of 6 inches, (150 mm).
-
This appliance may not be installed into a chimney flue serving any other appliance of any kind.
-
The air intake pipe must extend into the chimney flue beyond the fireplace damper area, or directly connect to the termination cap.
CANADA ONLY: Both the intake and exhaust ducts must fully connect the appliance and vent terminal. -
STUB INTAKE (fig. 14): If the intake flex duct does not extend the full length of the chimney to fully connect both the unit and termination cap, a sheet metal blockoff plate must be installed above the appliance before the end of the intake duct. The plate must completely seal the chimney flue from the living area.
-
REVERSED INTAKE LOOP: When enough vent length and flue area are available, including a return loop in the air intake run can help prevent draft reversals that cause cold start problems. See Fig. 16.
-
Consult with the local code authority having jurisdiction before proceeding with this type of installation.
-
Refer to the vent manufacturer’s instructions for specific installation requirements.
WARNING: FAILURE TO POSITION THE PARTS AND STOVE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE
DIAGRAMS OR FAILURE TO USE ONLY PARTS
SPECIFICALLY APPROVED FOR USE WITH THIS APPLIANCE MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY
DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY. BE SURE TO MAINTAIN THE PROPER CLEARANCES TO
COMBUSTIBLES AS DEFINED IN THIS MANUAL AND IN THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED WITH
EACH VENT COMPONENT.
Horizontal Termination
- Any horizontal termination must fall within the shaded portion of the vent window graph illustrated in figs. 9 or 11. For Snorkel Terminations, see below.
- Any horizontal termination except a snorkel termination, must include:
- Minimum verticle rise: NG – 12 in. / LP – 24 in.
- Minimum horizontal run:
NG – 6 in.
LP – 12 in. when vertical run is less than 8 ft. - Vertical run no more than 35 ft.
- Horizontal run no more than 27 ft.
-
Up to four 45° or two 90° elbows may be used in addition to the starter elbow. The horizontal run must be reduced by 5 feet for each additional elbow, whether 45° or 90°.
-
The horizontal termination cap must maintain a 3″ clearance to any overhead combustible projections 2 1/2″ or less. It must also maintain 12″ clearance from
projections exceeding 2 1/2″. See fig. 21. -
Wall Cut-out Opening: A minimum 10″ X 10″ (250 mm x 250 mm) square hole is required for proper pipe clearances through a combustible wall.
DO NOT FILL AIR SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF INSULATION. -
Any horizontal run of vent must be level or have a 1/4 in. rise for every foot of run toward the termination cap. NEVER ALLOW THE VENTING TO RUN DOWNWARD FROM STOVE TO TERMINATION; DOWNWARD VENT RUNS TRAP HEAT AND CAUSE HIGH TEMPERATURES TO DEVELOP WITHIN THE VENT THAT COULD START A FIRE.
-
Install a Vinyl Siding Standoff (Simpson Dura-Vent #950) between the vent termination and an exterior wall covered by vinyl siding material to prevent potential
heat damage to the siding. -
Do not recess the termination cap into a wall or siding.

Correct gas pressure is essential for efficient and safe operation of this appliance. Use a manometer to check pressures as specified in the Gas Pressure section of
this manual (page 19). -
Adjust the Air Shutter. You will need to position the shutter to provide a gas/air mixture that will achieve the best flame picture with your particular installation.
Start with the shutter stem at the half-way position in the slot in the bottom of the stove. See figs. 22 and 25. Pushing the stem back will restrict air, while pushing
it forward will open the shutter and increase air. With some experimentation, you will find the shutter position that works best for your installation.
ALWAYS REFER TO THE LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS ON THE INSIDE BACK COVER OF THIS MANUAL WHEN LIGHTING YOUR STOVE.
Gas Supply Connection
NOTE: If appropriate, install the optional forced air blower before
connecting the gas line, to prevent clearance interference between the two.
The gas supply line connection is made to the left side of the valve. The gas
supply line should be 3/8” npt with a 1/2” diameter supply, or the appropriate
size to provide sufficient gas pressure to the valve regardless of the input
setting.
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 LOCAL CODE OR IN THE ABSENCE OF LOCAL CODE,
MUST COMPLY WITH THE MOST RECENT EDITION OF THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 OR CAN-B149.
All codes require a gas shut-off valve (gas cock) and union, to be installed
in the supply line, and in the same room as the appliance. This allows for the
disconnection
of the stove for servicing and maintenance. See fig. 28.
A T-HANDLE GAS COCK IS REQUIRED IN MASSACHUSETTS TO COMPLY WITH CODE 248CMR.
Secure all joints tightly using appropriate tools and sealing compounds. For
propane units be sure to use 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 for leaks.
Leak test:
- Mix a 50-50 solution of water and dish soap.
- Light appliance- see lighting instructions on the inside back cover of this manual or on the stove’s rating plate.
- Brush or spray all joints and connections with the soapy water solution.
- If bubbles appear at any connection or seam or a gas odor is detected, immediately turn gas control knob to the OFF position.
- Tighten or reconnect the leaking joint and retest for any gas leaks.
Gas Pressure
Correct gas pressure is essential for efficient and safe operation of the GF
300 DV gas stove. 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 the appliance and is instrumental in checking for gas leaks.
Pressure Test: Attach a manometer to the appropriate test point on the valve.
See fig. 29. The gauge connections are located on the front of the valve under
the On/Off/Pilot- knob. Gauge connections are identified by: E – for Inlet or
Supply Pressure (the amount of gas coming to the valve.) A – for Manifold
Pressure (the amount of gas that is coming out of the valve to the burner.)
ALWAYS TEST PRESSURES WITH VALVE CONTROL KNOB SET ON HIGH.

High Altitude Adjustment
Installations located at altitudes from 2000 – 4500 ft.
(610 m -1370 m) DO NOT require adjustment for altitude.
DO NOT DERATE THIS APPLIANCE FOR ALTITUDE.
Flame Appearance / Air Shutter Adjustment
The GF 300 DV gas stove is shipped from the factory equipped to burn Natural
gas. If the stove has been converted for use with propane, the Air Shutter may
require adjustment to achieve the desired flame appearance. Other installation
related variables can also affect the flame picture. The Air Shutter may be
opened or
closed to provide the best flame picture for your specific installation.
Too large an air opening – the appliance will generate a flame that is blue
and transparent, or an “anemic” flame. Too small an air setting – the
appliance will generate
very long yellow flames resulting in soot. Sooting produces black deposits on
the logs, on the inside walls of the appliance, and potentially on the
exterior 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:
- Reach under the right side of the stove and loosen the wingnut located closest to you. See fig. 30. Slide the wingnut stud forward to open the air shutter and back to provide less air. Make adjustments in small increments.
- Tighten the wingnut to secure the shutter at the desired setting.
- Allow the stove to burn for 30 minutes on the HIGH setting, observing the flame continuously. If the flame appears weak, slow, or sooty, repeat the process described above until the flame is as desired.
WARNING: AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
Optional Wall Thermostat or Remote Control
Use only a 750 millivolt DC two-wire circuit thermostat with this appliance.
The thermostat should be placed in the same room as the heater, typically 5
feet off the floor. Avoid drafty areas or any area that may affect the
accuracy of the thermostat.
The thermostat should be connected using a minimum of 16 gauge wire with a
maximum length of 25 feet of wire.
Connect the two thermostat wire leads to the two lower terminals on the
terminal block located directly above the ignitor button. Do not overtighten
the
connections. IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO DISCONNECT ANY OTHER WIRES. See Fig. 31.
For thermostatic operation, the On/Off/T-Stat switch on the back of the stove
must be in the T-stat position, and the pilot light must be running, as it is
the power source for the thermostat.
At the thermostat, the two wires should be connected to the two connection
screws on the thermostat base plate per the manufacturer’s instructions.
Remote Control
A remote receiver should be wired to the terminal block the same way the
thermostat would be. See the instructions above. Follow the operating
instructions included with the Remote Control unit.
CAUTION:
LABEL ALL WIRES PRIOR TO DISCONNECTION WHEN SERVICING THE CONTROLS. WIRING
ERRORS CAN CAUSE IMPROPER OR DANGEROUS OPERATION. ALWAYS VERIFY PROPER
OPERATION AFTER SERVICING THE APPLIANCE.
CRITICAL NOTE: THE RED THERMOPILE WIRE MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE VALVE
TH/TP TERMINAL TO POWER THE THERMOSTAT.
Log Set Installation
Brick Kit Note: Install the optional Antique Brick Kit 155370 before
installing the log set. See page 27 and the instructions provided with that
kit.
The GF 300 DV log set must be installed before operating the burner. The log
set includes four log pieces, packaged inside the firebox, and a quantity of
ember stones packaged in the Miscellaneous Parts bag. To install the log set,
remove the packaging and place the parts inside the firebox as illustrated in
figs 32-36.
Do not handle the log set with your bare hands. Always wear gloves to prevent
skin irritation from the ceramic fibers.
IMPORTANT
The ember stones realistically simulate glowing coals when the burner is
operating. These should be spread evenly over the burner plate and around the
logs.
TO INSURE PROPER BURNER FUNCTION, DO NOT OBSTRUCT THE PILOT ASSEMBLY AND
BURNER SKIRT OPENINGS WITH EMBER STONES.
KEEP EMBERS OFF OF THE PILOT CARRY-OVER PORTS. SEE FIG. 36.
You do not need to use all of the ember stones. With some experimentation, you
will find the arrangement and quantity of embers that works best with your
stove. Depending upon the characteristics of your installation, it is possible
that too many ember stones can promote sooting on the logs. Adjust the
quantity of ember stones as appropriate to maintain the best overall flame
picture and burner performance.
System Check
- PURGING THE GAS LINE: When lighting the appliance for the first time, it will take a few moments to clear the gas line of air. Once this purge is complete, the appliance will operate as described in the lighting instructions. From a cold start, it may be helpful to let the pilot light burn for 10 – 15 minutes to establish positive draft, before turning the burner on. See the inside back cover of this manual or the stove Rating Plate attached to the rear shroud. Subsequent burner starts will not require purging the gas line unless the supply line is shut off.
- PILOT FLAME: You can monitor the pilot flame through the view port located at the rear of the RightLog. See fig. 37. The pilot flame should be steady – notlifting or floating. The flame should be blue in color around the pilot hood, with traces of yellow toward the outer edges. The pilot flame should engulf the top 3/8” of the thermopile (to generate millivolt current) and the top 1/8” of the thermocouple. The pilot flame should project out of all three pilot hood ports 1” and over to the burner plate carry-over ports. See figs. 37 and 37a.
- BURNER ADJUSTMENT: This stove is equipped with a variable gas control valve that allows easy adjustment of the flame height and heat output. To adjust the flame intensity, rotate the HI/LOW knob. Flame height will adjust approximately 50% between the LOW and HIGH settings. See fig. 38. NO SMOKE OR SOOT SHOULD BE PRESENT. CHECK LOG PLACEMENT IF ANY SOOT OR SMOKE IS PRESENT.IF SOOT OR SMOKE PERSISTS, THE AIR SHUTTER MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED. See Air Shutter/Flame Appearance section of this manual for proper air shutter settings and adjustments. Note: the more offsets there are in the vent system, the greater the need for an air shutter adjust- ment. See page 20.
WARNING: AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL SERVICE TECHNICIAN. CAUTION: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ALTER THE FLAME APPEARANCE BY POSITIONING THE GAS VALVE CONTROL IN ANY OTHER POSITION OTHER THAN THE FULL “ON” POSITION.
Operation
Familiarize yourself with the controls of the GF 300 DV. Make sure that anyone else using the appliance is also familiar with the controls and operation procedures. Always follow the Lighting Instructions on the inside back cover of this manual and also located on the Rating Plate attached to the rear shroud.
- Once the pilot is lit, burner operation is controlled by the rocker switch located at the left corner of the rear shroud. See fig. 39. ON / OFF – use for manual control of the burner. T-STAT – use for optional thermostatic or remote control operation. The burner will be controlled by those accessories.
- During the first few fires, you may notice odor and/ or smoke from the stove. This is normal and results from burn-off of manufacturing residue and curing of materials. You may find it helpful to provide additional ventilation and fresh air to alleviate this condition.
