Frequently Asked Questions - GZ 550 DV II JOTUL

How do I properly install the Jøtul GZ 550 DV II wood stove?
Installation must comply with local building codes. Maintain required clearances to combustible materials (36 inches sides, 48 inches front). Use a 6-inch diameter chimney pipe with proper insulation. For mobile homes, use an outside combustion air kit.
What type of wood should I burn in this stove?
Burn only seasoned hardwood with moisture content below 20%. Avoid green, treated, or painted wood. Softwoods may cause creosote buildup. Recommended species: oak, maple, birch.
How do I regulate the burn rate?
Use the primary air control (lower) to adjust burn intensity and the secondary air control (upper) for cleaner combustion. Slide left for less air (slow burn), right for more air (fast burn).
How often should I clean the stove and chimney?
Remove ash when it reaches the top of the ash pan (every 1-2 weeks). Inspect chimney monthly during burning season; clean annually or when creosote buildup exceeds 1/4 inch. Glass can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
What are the common troubleshooting issues for the GZ 550 DV II?
Common issues: smoke rollback (check draft, open damper), excessive creosote (burn hotter, use dry wood), glass blackening (adjust secondary air, burn with dry wood). Refer to manual for detailed steps.
Can I install the stove in a mobile home?
Yes, the GZ 550 DV II is approved for mobile home installation. You must use an outside air kit and ensure the stove is grounded. Follow all local codes and use a listed chimney connector.
How do I replace the door gasket?
Remove the old gasket, clean the groove, apply high-temperature gasket cement, and press the new gasket into place. Close the door and let it set for 24 hours before use. Gasket size: 3/4 inch round.
What is the maximum log length I can use?
The firebox accommodates logs up to 18 inches (457 mm) in length. Using longer logs may hinder loading and combustion.
How do I avoid overheating the stove?
Do not overload the firebox. Keep the primary air control partially open. Install a stove thermometer on the chimney pipe; operate between 250°F and 500°F. Never leave the stove unattended with the door open.
Where can I find spare parts for the GZ 550 DV II?
Contact Jøtul authorized dealers or visit the official Jøtul website. Common parts: door gasket, glass pane, baffle bricks, air control knobs. Use genuine parts for safety and performance.

Installation Requirements

The GZ 530 DV Acadia Gas Fireplace and its vent system must be installed within a totally enclosed structure. The fireplace must be connected to the specified vent and termination cap outside the building. Do not vent into another room or inside any part of a building. Under no circumstances may the flow of combustion or ventilation air be obstructed.

The approved vent configurations described herein 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: strong prevailing winds, steep roofs, nearby trees, snow accumulation, etc. These conditions should be taken into consideration by the installer and home owner. In such instances, system performance can often be improved by an increase in the vent height or installation of a high wind termination cap.

Placement and Framing

The combustible framing members of the fireplace enclosure may be placed in direct contact with the fireplace cabinet as specified in the illustrations on the following pages. Use the standof's integrated into the sides and top of the front opening to locate a combustible header and side framing members as shown in the illustrations. See fig. 1.

Electrical Power: If the optional Blower (#155630) will be used, be sure to include provision for a properly grounded, 120 volt house current outlet at the fireplace structure.

Parallel Installation

Although it is possible to place combustible framing members in direct contact with the rear surface of the cabinet, the fireplace must be located forward of the back wall with adequate clearance to accommodate the vent adaptor and subsequent lengths of vent pipe. Consideration must also be given to maintaining a minimum 1 inch (25 mm) clearance between a vertical vent pipe and any combustible materials to the rear of the unit. See Figs. 2, 3, and 4.

Corner Installation

A corner installation will require that the Vent Adaptor be installed in a top exit position. Horizontal terminations will then require use of a 90° elbow. Figs. S and 5a show rear termination with 5/8 Simpson Dura-Vent Wall Thimble #1247.

Hearth Protection

The G2550 DV-II Acadia is approved for installation without hearth protection. Combustible materials may be used on the floor directly under and in front of the fireplace. NOTE: The floor surface under the unit must be level with, or higher than, the surface in front of the unit to allow the fireplace Controls Door to fully open.

Facing and Clearance Requirements

The following clearance and hearth specifications are the minimum requirements for the G7550 DV II Acadia gas fireplace. Measure clearances from the steel fireplace cabinet - not the cast iron surround panels. See Figures 6 - 8.

A combustible surface is anything that can burn (i.e. sheet rock, wallpaper, wood, fabrics etc.). These surfaces are not limited to those that are visible and also include materials that are behind non-rombustibles.

If you are not sure of the combustible nature of a material, consult your local fire officials. "Fire Resistant" materials are considered combustible - they are difficult to ignite, but will burn. "Fire-rated" sheet rock is also considered combustible.

Maintain the proper clearances to the appliance to allow adequate flow of ventilation air around the fireplace.

Variable Vent Restriction

Vent restriction is accomplished by sliding a restrictor panel over the combustion air intake parts. Located at the back of the firebox. See Fig 19. The panel is set in a fully open position at the factory. Use the Vent Window diagrams in Figs. 12-13 as a starting point to determine the best restriction setting. Follow these steps to adjust the restriction as necessary:

  1. Remove the Controls Panel to access the adjustment lever at the rear of the valve compartment. Simply loosen the two wings but that secure the panel to the cabinet floor and pull the panel forward. You do not need to disconnect any wires.
  2. Locale the vent restriction wingnut protruding from the firebox floor at the rear of the valve compartment. Loosen the wingnut and push the lever to the left to increase restriction in one inch increments, e.g: 1 inch travel . 1/3 closed position.

The ideal restrictor setting for a particular vent system will vary depending on the specific installation characteristics. Once the fireplace is operating, further restrictor adjustment may be necessary to obtain the best performance. See the Operation chapter of this manual for more information.

Connect the Gas Supply

Gas Supply Requirements

ALL INSTALLATIONS MUST COMPLY WITH LOCAL CODE OR IN THE ASSENCE OF LOCAL CODE, MUST COMPLY WITH THE MOST RECENT EDITION OF THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE ANSI: Z223.1/NFPA 54 OR CAN-B149.

Shutoff Valve

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. This allows for the disconnection of the fireplace for servicing and maintenance. See fig. 25.

A T-handle gas shutoff valve is required in Massachusetts in compliance with Code 248CMR.

The fireplace and gas control valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig. For pressures lower than 1/2 psig, isolate the gas supply by closing the manual shuloff valve.

Control Valve Connection

The gas supply line connection is made to the left side of the valve. The gas supply line should be a minimum 3/8" diameter, 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. In Canada, methods vary depending on local code. If local codes permit, use flexible gas line for ease of installation and service. For those locales where flexible gas lines are not permitted, use the 3/8" iron fitting to make the connection at the left side of the Control Valve. See Figures 25 and 26.

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 page 23 of this manual or on the fireplace'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.

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

Figure 25. Gas supply line fittings.

Gas Pressure

Proper gas pressure provides a consistent flow of gas to the appliance and is instrumental in checking for gas leaks. The gas control valve on the fireplace is equipped with pressure test points for gauge connections. The gauge connections are located on the front of the valve under the On/Off/Pilot knob. Gauge connections are identified by:

  • IN/E for inlet or supply pressure (the amount of gas coming to the valve.)
  • OUT/A for manifold pressure (the amount of gas that is coming out of the valve to the burner.)

JOTUL GZ 550 DV II - Gas Pressure - 1

natural_image Pure electrical circuit lines without any symbols

Figure 26. Pressure test point as located on the front of the valve.

The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply line by closing its individual manual gas shutoff valve (gas cock) during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system that is equal to or less than pressures of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

Inlet Pressure

MINMAX
Natural Gas: 5.0 WC (1.24 kPa)11.0 WC (2.74 kPa)
Propane: 12.0 WC (2.98 kPa)14.9 WC (3.71kPa)

Manifold Pressure

MINMAX
Natural Gas: 1.2 WC (.29 kPa)3.8 WC (.94 kPa)
Propane: 2.9 WC (.72 kPa)11.0 WC (2.74 kPa)

ALWAYS TEST PRESSURE WITH VALVE CONTROL KNOB SET ON HIGH. Symptoms of incorrect gas pressure include:

Insufficient gas pressure:

  • Small pilor: flame which can result in insufficient millivolts.
  • Little variation in flame picture between HI and IO settings.
  • Insufficient gas to support more than one appliance causing nuisance outages or gas surges.

Excessive gas pressure:

• Permanent damage to valve causing complete appliance shut down.
- Too large a pilot flame resulting in overheating of the power generator and consequent shut down.
- Sooting due to impingement and/or incorrect fuel to air mix.

High Altitude Adjustment

Installations located at altitudes from 2000 - 4500 L (610 M - 1370 M), require compensation for the thinner air (less volume of air per cubic foot). Higher altitudes affect the atmospheric pressure and heat value of gaseous fuels. The lower oxygen content in the air and the lower gas viscosity require the use of a different orifice to achieve efficient, clean combustion at the burner tube.

For high altitude installations consult the local gas distributor or the authority having jurisdiction for proper rating methods. If the installer must convert the unit to adjust for varying altitudes, use f#tul High Altitude Kit (#155610-NG / #155611-LP).

In the U.S: THE DERATING KIT MUST BE INSTALLED BY AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE TECHNICIAN IN ACCOR-

Door Alignment Adjustment

You can adjust the door alignment if necessary by loosening the hinge screws (See 3, fig. 46 and fig. 47). Realign the door and then tighten the screws.

System Check

  1. 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 located on the fireplace's racing plate and back cover of this manual.

  2. PILOT FLAME: The pilot flame should be steady, not lifting or floating. The flame should be blue in color around the pilot hood, with traces of yellow toward the outer edges. It is imperative that the pilot flame engulf the top 3/8" of the thermopile (power generator) and the top 1/8" of the quick drop out thermocouple. The pilot flame should project out of the pilot hood 1" at all three parts. See Figure 48.

  3. BURNER ADJUSTMENT: Your Jøtul G2550 Acadia gas fireplace is equipped with a variable gas control valve. This valve provides easy adjustment of the flame height appearance and heat output. To adjust the flame between the HI and LO setting, rotate the HI/LO knob, located in the center of the valve face. Flame height will adjust approximately 1.0" to 1.5" between the HI and LO settings.

NO SMOKE OR SCOT SHOULD BE PRESENT. CHECK LOG PLACEMENT IF ANY SOOT OR SMOKE IS DETECTED. IF SOOT OR SMOKE PERSISTS, THE AIR SHUTTER MAY NEED TO BE ADJUSTED.

CAUTION: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ALTER THE FLAME APPEARANCE BY POSITIONING THE GAS VALVE IN ANY OTHER POSITION OTHER THAN THE FULL "ON" POSITION.

Flame Appearance / Air Shutter Adjustment

THE ACADIA GAS FIREPLACE IS SHIPPED FROM THE FACTORY EQUIPPED TO USE NATURAL GAS. IF THE BURNER HAS BEEN CONVERTED FOR USE WITH PROPANE, IT WILL BE NECESSARY TO ADJUST THE AIR SHUTTER ON THE BURNER TUBE TO ACH EVE THE PROPER GAS TO AIR MIX. See Figure 26.

WARNING: AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY A QUALIFIED PROFES- SIONAL SERVICE TECHNICIAN.

The air shutter adjustment can also help achieve the desired flame appearance. Generally, flame appearance is a matter of individual preference, however a warm yellowish flame is most common. See fig. 49.

Closing the air shutter - 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.

Socting is caused by incomplete combustion in the flames and lack of combustion air entering the air shutter opening.

Opening the air shutter - will generate a flame that is blue and transparent, or an "anemic" flame. This flame is generally more efficient but not as pretty.

Air Shutter Adjustment

  1. Open the Lower Grill panel and locate the Air Shuttle: adjustment stem extending down from the right side of the firebox floor. See figs. 49.
  2. Loosen the locknut and push the stem BACK (to the rear of the firebox) to open the air inlet increasing airflow into the burrer. Push the stem FORWARD to decrease the air inlet. Make adjustments in 1/8" (3 mm) increments and allow time for flame pattern to respond to the new setting. Retighten the locknut when the desired flame pattern is established.
  3. Reassemble the fireplace including glass assembly. Allow the fireplace to burn 15 -20 minutes on the H'GH setting, observing the flame continuously.
  4. If the flame appears weak, slow, or sooty, repeat the process described above until the flame is as desired.

Air Inlet Settings

Natural Gas · 1/4" open

Propane - 1/2" open

IMPORTANT: Run the fireplace for a minimum of 15 to 20 minutes to produce an accurate representation of the flame appearance. This warm-up should be done before and between any air shutter adjustment.
