3.0 Safety
NB! To guarantee optimal performance and safety, Jøtul
recommends that its stoves are fi tted by a qualifi ed
installer (see www.jotul.com for a complete list of dealers).
Any modifi cations to the product by the distributor, installer or
consumer may result in the product and safety features not
functioning as intended. The same applies to the installation of
accessories or optional extras not supplied by Jøtul. This may
also be the case if parts that are essential to the functioning and
safety of the fi replace have been disassembled or removed.
In all these cases, the manufacturer is not responsible or liable
for the product and the right to make a complaint becomes null
and void.
The Clean Air Act
"The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas"
Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the
whole or part of the district of the authority to be a smoke
control area. It is an offence to emit smoke from a chimney of
a building, from a furnace or from any fi xed boiler if located in a
designated smoke control area. It is also an offence to acquire
an "unauthorised fuel" for use within a smoke control area
unless it is used in an "exempt" appliance ("exempted" from
the controls which generally apply in the smoke control area).
The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural
Affairs has powers under the Act to authorise smokeless
fuels or exempt appliances for use in smoke control areas in
England. In Scotland and Wales this power rests with Ministers
in the devolved administrations for those countries. Separate
legislation, the Clean Air (Northern Ireland) Order 1981,
applies in Northern Ireland. Therefore it is a requirement that
fuels burnt or obtained for use in smoke control areas have
been "authorised" in Regulations and that appliances used to
burn solid fuel in those areas (other than "authorised" fuels)
have been exempted by an Order made and signed by the
Secretary of State or Minister in the devolved administrations.

can be found here : http://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/
Your local authority is responsible for implementing the Clean
Air Act 1993 including designation and supervision of smoke
control areas and you can contact them for details of Clean Air
Act requirements".

"The Jotul F 305 Base, Jotul F305 long Legs and Jotul

use in smoke control areas when burning Wood Logs."
3.1 Fire Prevention Measures
There is a certain element of danger every time you use
your fi replace. The following instructions must therefore be
followed:
•
The minimum safety distances when installing and using the
fi replace are given in fi g. 1.
•
Ensure that furniture and other fl ammable materials are not too
close to the fi replace. Flammable materials should not be placed
within 1100 mm of the fi replace.
•
Allow the fi re to burn out. Never extinguish the fl ames with water.
•
The fi replace becomes hot when lit and may cause burns if
touched.
•
Only remove ash when the fi replace is cold. Ash can contain
hot embers and should therefore be placed in a non-fl ammable
container.
•
Ash should be placed outdoors or be emptied in a place where it
will not present a potential fi re hazard.
In case of chimney fi re:
•
Close all hatches and vents.
•
Keep the fi rebox door closed.
•
Check the loft and cellar for smoke.
•
Call the fi re service.
•
Before use after a fi re an expert must check the fi replace
and the chimney in order to ensure that it is fully functional.
3.2 Floor
Foundation
You need to make sure the foundation is suitable for a fi replace.
See "2.0 Technical Data" for specifi ed weight.
We recommend the removal of any fl ooring that is not attached
to the foundation ("fl oating fl oors") beneath the installation.
Short legs (Optional extra)
NB: The short legged version (F 305 SL) can only be
installed on a constructional hearth which must have an
extension of minimum 500 mm in front of the stove. For
further information please see Approved Document J2010
Section 2.22.
Requirements for protection of wooden
fl ooring beneath the fi replace
The product with base has integrated fl oor protection and
may therefore be placed directly on a wooden fl oor.
Jøtul F 305 with legs must have a fl oorplate below and in
front according to national laws and regulations.
Important! The space under the burnchamber of Jøtul F 305
with legs cannot be used for storage.
Any infl ammable fl oor coverings, such as linoleum, carpets,
etc. must be removed from under the product.
Requirements for protection of
infl ammable fl oors in front of the
fi replace
The front plate must comply with national laws and regulations.
Contact your local building authorities regarding restrictions
and installation requirements.
3.3 Walls
Distance to walls made of combustible material - see fi g. b
Distance to combustible wall protected by fi rewall: See
fi g. 1c.
The fi replace may be used with an uninsulated fl ue pipe
provided the distances between the fi replace and walls made
of combustible materials are as shown in fi g. 1b. Alternative
distances with shielded or insulated fl ue pipe are also
displayed in fi g. 1b.
Note! Ensure that furniture and other fl ammable materials
are not too close to the fi replace. Flammable materials
should not be placed within 1100 mm of the fi replace.
