NAPOLEON gas fireplaces 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.
INTRODUCTION GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL INFORMATION THIS GAS FIREPLACE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to conform with local codes. Installation practices vary from region to region and it is important to know the specifics that apply to your area, for example: in Massachusetts State: FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, ALL BURNER ASSEMBLIES HAVE BEEN TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE THEIR OPERATIONS AND QUALITY! Maximum input is 30,000 BTU/h for natural gas and propane.
Vent lengths that pass through unheated spaces (attics, garages, crawl spaces) should be insulated with the insulation wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize condensation. Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a minimum of 48" away from the glass front faces of the unit.

PENINSULA INSTALLATION PROCEDURE VENTING COUNTERTOP / BAR INSTALLATION fer to pages 6-13. All venting must have a minimum clearance of 1" to combustible. When finishing the fireplace, combustible material may rest directly on of the top extension. In order to achieve a countertop or bar type appearance with the minimum height allowed, framing must be non-combustible and may be done with metal studding attached to the top extension sides or the upper frame of the fireplace.
BRICK PANEL INSTALLATION FACING Install the base panels as illustrated in steps 1-4 . The side panel sits under the bracket tab. Holding the side panel in position, bend down the tab to secure. DETAIL 5. Combustible materials may be installed flush with the front of the fireplace but must not cover any of the black faceareas of the fireplace. Non-combustible material (brick, stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas.
OPEN-END INSTALLATION PROCEDURE VENTING Refer to pages 6-13. All venting must have a minimum clearance of 1" to combustible. FIGURES 21a-c FRAMING See Page 18 for additional framing dimensions. Note: In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or vapour barrier coming in contact with the fireplace body, it is recommended that the walls of the fireplace enclosure be “finished” (ie: drywall/sheetrock), as you would finish any other outside wall of a home.
SEE-THROUGH INSTALLATION PROCEDURE VENTING FACING Refer to pages 6-13. All venting must have a minimum clearance of 1" to combustible. Combustible materials may be installed flush with the front of the fireplace but must not cover any of the black faceareas of the fireplace. Non-combustible material (brick, stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas. It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this fireplace system. FRAMING See Page 18 for additional framing dimensions.
VENT FRAMING DIMENSIONS There must be a minimum of 1" clearance to combustibles when framing around all venting options. See pages 14-17. FIGURE 26 FIGURE 27 Horizontal Vent Off Fireplace A = 42" using flexible vent components. A = 38½" using Wolf Steel rigid vent components. W415-0299 / C / 03.12.03 Vertical Vent Off Fireplace B = 45" using flexible vent components. B = 42½" using Wolf Steel rigid vent components.
INSTALLATION WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION For optimum performance it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum 1 inch rise per foot using flexible venting. For safe and proper operation of the fireplace, follow the venting instructions exactly. 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 square or round opening * .
USING FLEXIBLE VENT COMPONENTS Use only approved aluminum flexible liner kits marked: FIGURE 33 For optimum performance, it is recommended that horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot . "Wolf Steel Approved Venting" as identified by the stamp only on the 8” outer liner. 5. From outside, apply a bead of the high temperature sealant to the inside of both liners, approximately 1" from the end of each liner. HORIZONTAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION 5.
5. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides of the chimney. Place the flashing over the air terminal and slide it underneath the sides and upper edge of the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal is properly centered within the flashing, giving a 3/5" margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do not nail through the lower portion of the flashing. Make weather-tight by sealing with caulking. Where possible, cover the sides and top edges of the flashing with roofing material. 6.
O O I PI L OT 3 ON FIGURE 42 IH 1. Move the fireplace into position and secure to the floor using #10 hex head screws (not supplied). 2. Route a 3/8" N.P.T. black iron gas line, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or equivalent to the fireplace. 3. For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a convenient location. Route 2-strand (solid core) millivolt wire through the electrical hole located at the bottom left side of the unit.
LOG PLACEMENT E PHAZER logs, glowing and charcoal 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 embers for a maximum glowing effect. Figures 46 A - H. TM A #1 LOCATING PINS #3 LOCATING PINS 5. When pieces #3a and #3b are attached to create log #3, the upper end of log #3 should rest in the groove, on top of log # 2. F 1.
DOOR INSTALLATION GLOWING EMBERS Tear the embers into small pieces and place on the ported area of the burner. Care should be taken to shred the embers into thin, small irregular pieces as only the exposed edges of the fibre hairs will glow. The ember material will only glow when exposed to direct flame; however, care should be taken to not block the burner ports. Blocked burner ports can cause an incorrect flame pattern, carbon deposits and delayed ignition.
L36 LOUVRE INSTALLATION FIGURE 54 a-c A B END DOOR INSTALLATION Ensure that the door is properly clipped onto the steel lip to prevent overheating, glass breakage and / or discolouration of the upper trim. FIGURE 56 FIGURE 55 STEEL LIP DOOR To install the door(s), hook it over the steel lip located above the door opening. C A CLIPS FLANGE HOOD Attach the hood by pressing the top flange into the clips along the top of the louvre opening. Secure using a screw through the centre slot.
OPTIONAL BLOWER INSTALLATION blac INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER and must be electrically 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. Remove the blower from its mounting bracket r ed and attach to the bracket supplied with the fireplace.
OPERATION / MAINTENANCE 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. Simply open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room. After extended periods of non-operation such as following a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may emit a slight odour for a few hours.
ADJUSTMENTS PILOT BURNER ADJUSTMENT VENTURI ADJUSTMENT Adjust the pilot screw to provide properly sized flame. Turn in a clockwise direction to reduce the gas flow. Natural gas models have air shutters set at 1/4 (.250") inch open. Propane gas models have air shutters set at 7/16 (.437) inch open. 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.
