Install Guide
A. Design and Installation Considerations
Consideration must be given to:
• Safety
• Convenience
• Trac ow
• Chimney and ue requirements
It is a good idea to plan your installation on paper, using
exact measurements for clearances and oor protection,
before actually beginning the installation. If you are not
using an existing chimney, place the appliance where there
will be a clear passage for a factory-built listed chimney
through the ceiling and roof.
We recommend that a qualied building inspector and your
insurance company representative review your plans
before and after installation.
If this appliance is in an area where children may be near
it is recommended that you purchase a decorative barrier
to go in front of the appliance.
Remember to always keep
children away while it is operating and do not let anyone
operate this appliance unless they are familiar with these
operating instructions.
Check building codes prior to installation.
• Installation MUST comply with local, regional,
state and national codes and regulations.
• Consult insurance carrier, local building, re
ocials or authorities having jurisdiction about
restrictions, installation inspection, and permits.
CAUTION
NOTICE: JETMASTER ASSUMES NO
RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE IMPROPER
PERFORMANCE OF THE APPLIANCE
SYSTEM CAUSED BY:
• Inadequate draft due to environmental conditions
• Down drafts
• Tight sealing construction of the structure
• Mechanical exhausting devices
• Over drafting caused by excessive chimney heights
• Ideal performance is with height of chimney
minimum 4.6 metres as per AS/NZS 2918:2018.
C. Negative Pressure
Negative pressure results from the imbalance of air
available for the appliance to operate properly. It can be
strongest in lower levels of the house.
Causes include:
• Exhaust fans (kitchen, bath, etc.)
• Range hoods
• Combustion air requirements for furnaces, water
appliances and other combustion appliances
• Clothes dryers
• Location of return-air vents to furnace or air
conditioning
• Imbalances of the HVAC air handling system
• Upper level air leaks such as:
- Recessed lighting
- Attic hatch
- Duct leaks
B. Fire Safety
To provide reasonable re safety, the following should be
given serious consideration:
1. Install at least one smoke detector on each oor of
your home to ensure your safety. They should be
located away from the heating appliance and close to
the sleeping areas. Follow the smoke detector
manufacturer’s placement and installation instructions,
and be sure to maintain regularly.
2. A conveniently located Class A re extinguisher to
contend with small res resulting from burning embers.
3. A CO detector should be installed in the room with the
appliance.
4. A practiced evacuation plan, consisting of at least two
escape routes.
5. A plan to deal with a chimney re as follows:
In the event of a chimney re:
a. Evacuate the house immediately
b. Notify the re brigade.
WARNING
Asphyxiation Risk.
• Negative pressure can cause spillage
of combustion fumes, soot and carbon
monoxide.
• Appliance needs to draft properly for
safety.
WARNING
Asphyxiation Risk.
• Do NOT connect this appliance to a
chimney ue servicing another appliance.
• Do NOT connect to any air distribution
duct or system.
May allow ue gases to enter the house.

performance As shown in Figure below the chimney should:
• Install through the warm space enclosed by the building
envelope This helps to produce more draft, especially
during lighting and die down of the re
• Penetrate the highest part of the roof This minimizes the
aects of wind turbulence and down drafts
• Consider the appliance location in order to avoid oor and
ceiling attic joists and rafters
• Locate termination cap away from trees, adjacent structures,
uneven roof lines and other obstructions
Your local dealer is the expert in your geographic area and
can usually make suggestions or discover solutions that will
easily correct your ue problem

General usage info
How to use the wood replace
Your Jetmaster fireplace is designed not to spill smoke and y following a few instructions you will achieve optimum heat output,
convenience and fuel economy. Please note that during the first fire the paint goes through a onding process called curing which
may emit odours. This is normal and it is recommended to open windows to outside to allow the fumes to disappate.
Lighting a re
There are many different ways to successfully light and run a fire all of which require an even alance of the 3 elements of com ustion.
Fuel, Heat (ignition source) and Oxygen - if your fire is not operating cleanly it will e due to one of these elements eing
compromised. Jetmaster recommends the Home Heating Association we site www.homeheat.com.au as a terrific resource for further
information on tips and FAQ’s on solid fuel trou leshooting.
1 Ensure the damper is in the full open position Pull the handle on the left side towards you with the steel handle provided
2 In rebox lay your re lighters 10 to 15 centimetres apart, depending on the size of your rebox Do not use newspaper as a
re lighter On units that are installed with a dual spigot gather, it is recommended to light 2 res directly underneath the two
separate ues
3 Add soft wood kindling in a criss cross pattern above the relighters Softwood kindling allows for re to light quicker and
burn hotter
4 Light re with match or gas lighter Leave for 5-10 minutes maximum and do not leave unattended
5 Load pieces of hardwood that are no wider than a drink can in a criss cross pattern
6 After 30 minutes add the large pieces of hardwood These pieces should be no bigger than a loaf of bread You may attach
your screen now if desired
7 After 45 minutes you can adjust the damper to slightly slow the re down The amount you can close it will depend on the
type of wood used and general weather conditions
If the fire egins to spill smoke, adjust the damper to a more open position. Do not close the damper more than 50% when the fire is in
operation. Once the fire is extinguished, closing the damper will reduce cold drafts and heat loss associated with the open flue.
Always leave a ed of ashes up to the centre crest of the logpan for ease of lighting and to prolong the life of and protect the logpan.
Excess ashes should e removed when necessary, placed in a non-com usti le container with a tightly fitting lid and moved outdoors
immediately to a location clear of com usti le materials.

AS/NZS 2918 General notes
Fuels
The quality of firewood is extremely important. How long a tree
has een felled or dead for does not indicate how dry the wood
is.
The est way to dry wood is to split it and expose the inner core
allowing the sun to dry the wood naturally.
Good wood merchants will split the wood for you, ut may not
season it for you.
The amount of you pay for your wood does not justify how dry
the wood is. The only way to know how dry your wood is, is to
use a moisture meter measuring from the inner core of the
wood.
Only urn wood under 20% moisture. Anything over 20% and
your wood heater will not work efficiently. The energy from the
fire will e used to reduce moisture in your wood and not
produce heat for your house.
Store your wood for at least 12 months after your have
purchased it. Your wood should e at a perfect moisture level, of
around 15 to 20%. Never urn treated wood or painted wood.
Cleaning
The Jetmaster Log Pan is designed to give greater heat and fuel
efficiency. For the duration of the cold season the Log Pan
should never e emptied. The resulting ed of ash and coals
from previous fires will soon ecome a heat ank generating
more heat than the urning logs. This ash ed also insulates and
greatly extends the life of the Log Pan. This is why an ash ed
must e maintained at all times.
When the level of the ash ed ecomes too high, the top layer
can e removed. Depending on frequency of use and quality of
wood, this skimming procedure should not e required more
than once or twice a Season!
To prevent chimney fires as well as ena ling the chimney to
draw properly, the chimney/flue should e swept at least once a
season,su ject to the quality of tim er used in the fire.
General Maintenance
The visi le parts of your Jetmaster can e cleaned with a damp
cloth or soft rush. Should you wish you could repaint the unit
with a heat resistant paint?
Safet
The Jetmaster is a safety-tested unit, however, you must never
leave an open fire unguarded. Jetmaster has a screen that is
designed to prevent sparks leaving the fireplace and very
resistant to eing accidentally knocked over y young children.
