NAPOLEON products are manufactured under the strict Standard of the world recognized ISO 9001 : 2000 Quality Assurance Certificate. NAPOLEON products are designed with superior components and materials, assembled by trained craftsmen who take great pride in their work. The burner and valve assembly are leak and test-fired at a quality test station.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS THIS GAS FIREPLACE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to conform with local codes. In absence of local codes, install the BGD42 to the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or the current CAN/CGA B149, Installation Codes.
FIGURE 1 VENTING VENTING LENGTHS Use only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp or American Metal Amerivent venting components. Minimum and maximum vent lengths, for both horizontal and vertical installations, and air terminal locations for either system are set out in this manual and must be adhered to. For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp and American Metal Amerivent, follow the installation procedure provided with the venting components.

TYPICAL VENT INSTALLATIONS NOTE: When terminating vertically, the restrictor plate W500-0205 must be installed. Refer to Restricting Vertical Vents. FIGURES 3 a-c SPECIAL VENT INSTALLATIONS PERISCOPE TERMINATION Use the GD401 periscope kit to locate the air termination above grade. The periscope must be installed so that when final grading is completed, the bottom air slot is located a minimum of 12 inches above grade. The maximum allowable vent length depends on the fireplace, as illustrated.
VENTING APPLICATION FLOW CHART HORIZONTAL TERMINATION vertical rise is equal to or greater than the horizontal run horizontal run + vertical rise to maximum of 40 feet vertical rise is less than horizontal run horizontal run + vertical rise to maximum of 24.75 feet 4.2 times the vertical rise equal to or greater than the horizontal run W415-0533 / E / 02.09.

INSTALLATION WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE FIREPLACE, FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY. NOTE: Only a clearance to combustibles of 1" all around the vent pipe is required. HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall. Having determined the air terminal location, cut and frame a hole in an exterior wall with a minimum opening as required. See Note above.
USING FLEXIBLE VENT COMPONENTS Use only approved aluminum flexible liner kits marked: "Wolf Steel Approved Venting" as identified by the stamp only on the 7” outer liner. HORIZONTAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION A VENT SHIELD MUST BE USED IF THE WALL TERMINAL IS INSTALLED ON COMBUSTIBLE, EXTERIOR SURFACES. 1. Cut or frame a hole in an exterior wall with a minimum round or square opening of 10½ inches. Secure the firestop spacer over the opening to the interior wall. 2.
5. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides of the chimney. Place the flashing over the air terminal connector leaving a min. 3/4” of the air terminal connector showing above the top of the flashing. Slide the flashing underneath the sides and upper edge of the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal connector is properly centred within the flashing, giving a 3/4” margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do not nail through the lower portion of the flashing.
VERTICAL VENTING INSTALLATION 1. Move the fireplace into position. 2. Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws provided. FIGURE 21. The roof support is optional. In this case the venting is to be adequately supported using either an alternate method suitable to the authority having jurisdiction or the optional roof support. 3. Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of the inner sleeve of the air terminal.
Seal and tighten securely. An adapter fitting is required between the gas valve and the copper tubing or flex connector. Do not kink flex connector. 5. Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solution. Do not use open flame. Do not connect either the wall switch, thermostat or gas valve to electricity (110 volts). Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace removed. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before re-installing the door.
NAILING TAB INSTALLATION FIGURES 35a-c CORNER 1) Attach the nailing tabs to the corner posts using the 2 sheet metal screws supplied. Secure through the centre of the top and bottom slots in the nailing tab and then through the existing holes in the corner posts. If there are no existing holes, follow these instructions: POST NAILING TAB TOP SLOT NAILING TAB Position the nailing tab so that the front face is offset with the front edge of the corner post (approx. ½").
FINISHING GDL42 LOUVRE INSTALLATION UPPERLOUVRE SLOT TO INSTALL THE UPPER LOUVRES: Insert the upper louvres into the slots on both brackets. a DOOR LATCH LOGO PLACEMENT Remove the backing of the logo supplied and place on the glass viewing door, as indicated. ½" LOGO ½" FIGURES 37 HINGE SCREEN TO INSTALL THE LOWER LOUVRE ASSEMBLY: Attach each hinge to the firebox with 2 screws. Position the hinge screen into place and with the control door open, secure to the firebox using three screws.
GRATE INSTALLATION The grate for this fireplace has been removed for shipping purposes. The grate must be installed before the logs are installed. Remove the packaging from the grate and install onto the two pins as illustrated. LOG PLACEMENT TM PHAZER logs and glowing embers, exclusive to Napoleon Fireplaces, provide a unique and realistic glowing effect that is different in every installation. Take the time to carefully position the glowing embers for a maximum glowing effect. Log colours may vary.
CHARCOAL EMBERS CHARCOAL LUMPS Randomly place the charcoal embers along the front and sides of the log support tray in a realistic manner. Fine dust found in the bottom of the bag should not be used. Place the lumps between the logs in a realistic manner taking care not to block any of the burner ports. VERMICULITE Sprinkle vermiculite around the charcoal embers. Note: Both charcoal embers and vermiculite are not to be placed on the burner.
OPTIONAL FAN INSTALLATION ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER and must be connected and grounded in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States. To safely install the fan, turn off the electricity first. FIGURE 47 If the fireplace was not previously equipped with a fan: route a grounded 2-wire, 60hz power cable to the junction box.
OPERATION / MAINTENANCE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condition caused by the curing of the logs and the "burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again. FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING: A. This fireplace is equipped with a pilot which must be lit by hand while following these instructions exactly. B.
ADJUSTMENTS PILOT BURNER ADJUSTMENT Adjust the pilot screw to provide properly sized flame. Turn in a clockwise direction to reduce the gas flow. Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow flame, but can lead to carboning. Opening the air shutter will cause a more blue flame, but can cause flame lifting from the burner ports. The flame may not appear yellow immediately; allow 15 to 30 minutes for the final flame colour to be established.
REPLACEMENTS Contact your dealer for questions concerning prices and availability of replacement parts. Normally all parts can be ordered through your Napoleon dealer or distributor. FOR WARRANTY REPLACEMENT PARTS, A PHOTOCOPY OF THE ORIGINAL INVOICE WILL BE REQUIRED TO HONOUR THE CLAIM. * IDENTIFIES ITEMS WHICH ARE NOT ILLUSTRATED. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, CONTACT YOUR NAPOLEON DEALER. When ordering replacement parts always give the following information: 1. MODEL & SERIAL NUMBER OF FIREPLACE 2.
