GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS  
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:  
This fireplace is approved for bedroom and bed-sitting room  
installation.  
• The fireplace damper must be removed or welded in the open  
position prior to installation of the fireplace insert or gas log.  
• The appliance off valve must be a "T" handle gas cock.  
• The flexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.  
• The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom or  
bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent sealed combustion prod  
uct.  
No external electricity (110 volts or 24 volts) is required  
for the gas system operation. Expansion / contraction  
noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are  
normal and are to be expected.  
• WARNING: This product must be installed by a licensed plumber  
or gas fitter when installed within the commonwealth of Massa  
chusetts.  
In absence of local codes, install the fireplace to the cur-  
rent National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or the current  
CAN/CGA B149, Installation Codes.  
CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS  
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean plated parts. Buff  
lightly with a clean dry cloth. The fireplace is factory  
equipped with 3/16" thick tempered glass. Use only re-  
placement glass available from your Napoleon dealer.  
The fireplace and its individual shutoff valve must be dis-  
connected from the gas supply piping system during any  
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess  
of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). The fireplace must be isolated from  
the gas supply piping system by closing its individual  
manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the  
gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or  
less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).  
Do not substitute materials.  
Clean the glass after the first 10 hours of operation with a  
recommended gas fireplace glass cleaner. Thereafter  
clean as required.  
Do not clean glass when hot!  
If the glass is not kept clean permanent discolouration  
and / or blemishes may result.  
When the fireplace is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl  
tile or other combustible material other than wood flooring,  
the fireplace shall be installed on a metal or wood panel  
extending the full width and depth.  
Use only accessories designed for and  
listed with your specific fireplace.  
Provide adequate ventilation and combustion air.  
Provide adequate accessibility clearance for serv-  
icing and operating the fireplace. Never obstruct  
the front opening of the fireplace.  
If the optional fan or blower is installed, the junction box  
must be electrically connected and grounded in accord-  
ance 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.  
Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be  
kept a minimum of 48" away from the front face of  
the unit.  
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace fol-  
low the venting & operating instructions exactly.  
GENERAL INFORMATION  
Provide a means for visually checking the vent  
connection to the fireplace after the fireplace is  
installed.  
FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN  
TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUAL-  
ITY! Maximum input for the fireplace is 17,000 BTU/h for  
natural gas and propane. When the fireplace is installed at  
elevations above 4,500ft, and in the absense of specific  
recommendations from the local authority having jurisdic-  
tion, the certified high altitude input rating shall be reduced  
at the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft.  
In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insula-  
tion and vapour barrier coming into 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  
wall of the home. This will ensure that clearance  
to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.

VENTING  
This is a vented appliance and must be connected to a  
HIGH LIMIT SWITCH  
chimney in accordance with the current installation codes.  
In absence of local codes, install to the current National  
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or the currentCAN/CGA B149,  
Installation Codes. This model can be common-vented.  
This thermally activated switch, located in front of the draft  
hood, senses an increase in temperature and acts as a  
safety shut-off (See 'A' below). It shuts down the gas to the  
main burner in the unlikely event of the unit overheating.  
The HI Limit switch will automatically reset after the unit  
has cooled down, resuming gas flow to the main burner.  
A minimum four inch diameter (4"ø) B-vent or class A vent  
is required. A minimum 10' vent height is required. Secure  
the B-vent to the exhaust collar on the stove top with 3  
screws. In cold climates, the use of a B-vent and an insu-  
lated chase is recommended.

GAS INSTALLATION  
FRAMING  
It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned and  
the vent system is installed. Use 2x4's and frame to local  
building codes.  
Combustible materials may be installed flush with the front  
of the fireplace but must not cover any of the black face-  
areas of the fireplace. Non-combustible material (brick,  
stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas.  
Proceed once the vent installation is complete.  
1. Move the fireplace into position and secure using the  
nailing tabs and/or secure to the floor through the 1/4"ø  
holes located at either end of the base.  
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 conven-  
ient location. Route 2-strand (solid core) millivolt wire  
through the electrical hole located at the bottom left side of  
the unit. The recommended maximum lead length de-  
pends on wire size:  
Combustible objects, like furniture, placed in front of the  
fireplace, should be kept a minimum of 48" away from the  
front face.  
In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation and  
vapour barrier coming into 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 wall of the home. This will ensure that clearance to  
combustibles is maintained within the cavity.

It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this  
fireplace system.  
Attach the one lead to terminal 3 (located on the gas valve)  
and the other lead to the vent safety switch wire ( located  
loose in the valve compartment). See FIGURE 3.  
When roughing in the fireplace, raise the fireplace to ac-  
commodate for the thickness of the finished floor materi-  
als, i.e. tile, carpeting, hard wood, which if not planned for  
will interfere with the opening of the lower access door and  
the installation of many decorative flashing accessories.

4. Install rigid black pipe, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or, if  
local codes permit, a 3/8" flex connector and shutoff valve  
to the gas line and the fireplace gas valve. Seal and tighten  
securely. An adapter fitting is required between the gas  
valve and the copper tubing or flex connector. DO NOT KINK  
FLEXIBLE CONNECTOR. FIGURE6.  
5. Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water  
solution.  
Do not use open flame.

Position the nailing tab so that the  
front face is offset with the front edge  
of the corner post (approx. ½"). Cen-  
tre the nailing tab vertically on the cor-  
ner post.

Drill through the centre of the top and  
bottom slots in the nailing tab. Secure  
using the two sheet metal screws  
supplied. This allows the nailing tab to  
slide back and forth for desired framing. Figure  
12 b.  
2) To determine the final location of the nailing tab you  
must first determine the thickness of your finishing mate-  
rial (i.e. drywall). This will determine the dimension from  
the front edge of the corner post to the nailing tab. Once  
the nailing tab is in the desired location, drill through the  
centre hole of the nailing tab. Secure with a sheet metal  
screw*. Figure 12 c.

LOG PLACEMENT  
PHAZERTM logs and glowing embers exclusive to Napoleon Fire-  
places, provide a unique and realistic glowing effect that is  
different in every installation. Take the time to carefully po-  
sition the glowing embers for a maximum glowing effect.  
Log colours may vary. During the initial use of the fireplace,  
the colours will become more uniform as colour pigments  
burn in during the heat activated curing process.  
FIGURE 18a-f  
4. Position the notch located on the end of the center log  
(#5) against the middle grate post with the other end of the  
log resting in the pocket of the left crossover log.  
SIDEVIEW  
1. Place the back log (#1) onto the log  
support tray and in front of the tabs. The  
tabs maintain an air space between the  
log and firebox back to facilitate combus-  
tion air flow. Ensure that the back of the log  
rests against the brackets on the back wall  
of the firebox.  
5. Place the bottom of the right crossover log (#6) against  
the right firebox side and pulled forward to the grate. The  
top of the log should rest in the pocket provided on the  
center log (#5).  
TAB  
CHARCOAL EMBERS  
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.  
GLOWING EMBERS  
Tear the embers into pieces and place along the front row  
of ports covering all of the burner area in front of the small  
logs (#2 & #3). 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 pat-  
tern, carbon deposits and delayed ignition. PHAZERTM logs  
glow when exposed to direct flame. Use only certified "glow-  
ing embers" and PHAZERTM logs available from your Na-  
poleon dealer.  
2. Move the two small logs (#2 & #3) into position, lining  
up the studs located on the burner with the holes on the  
bottom of the logs. Ensure that the small logs sit flat on the  
burner.

The three slots allow ease  
of adjustment of the  
blower. For a quiet run-  
ning blower, do not allow  
the assembly to sit on the  
firebox base.  
Attach and secure the variable speed  
switch using the nut provided. Plug the  
harness cord into the receptacle.  
The wire harness provided in this kit is a universal  
harness. When installed, ensure that any excess  
wire is contained, preventing it from making con-  
tact with moving or hot objects.  
FIGURE 21  
Slide the vibration reducing pad (A) into the clip and onto  
the threaded stud (B) at the other end, piercing a hole into  
the pad. The blower must be able to be positioned entirely  
onto the pad.  
Because the blower is thermally activated, when  
turned on, it will automatically start approximately  
15 minutes after lighting the fireplace and will run  
for approximately 30-45 minutes after the fireplace  
has been turned off. Use of the fan increases the  
output of heat.  
Tilt the blower onto its side. Slide it past the controls and  
into the clip (C). Secure to the threaded stud using the lock  
washer and wing nut provided. Ensure that the blower  
does not touch the fireplace base or the firebox.  
Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bear-  
ings causing irreparable damage. Care must be  
taken to prevent drywall dust from coming into  
contact with the blower or its compartment. Any  
damage resulting from this condition is not cov-  
ered by the warranty policy.

OPERATION / MAINTENANCE  
Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace  
opened. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the  
burner before closing the door.  
After extended periods of non-operation such as fol-  
lowing a vacation or a warm weather season, the fire-  
place may emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is  
caused by dust particles in the heat exchanger burning  
off. In both cases, open a window to sufficiently venti-  
late the room.  
When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight  
odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condi-  
tion caused by the curing of the logs and the "burn-in"  
of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufac-  
turing process and will not occur again.  
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING:  
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:  
A. This fireplace is equipped with a pilot which must be lit  
by hand while following these instructions exactly.  
• Turn off all gas to the fireplace.

not be obstructed.  
4. Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to  
engulf the thermocouple and thermopile and reaches to-  
ward the burner with the third jet.  
5. Replace the cleaned logs.  
6. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on  
all openings when the gas knob for the burner is turned  
on. A 5 to 10 second total light-up period is satisfactory. If  
ignition takes longer, consult your Napoleon dealer / dis-  
tributor.

2. Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air shutter  
opening and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacu-  
uming or brushing, at least once a year.

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; al-  
low 15 to 30 minutes for the final flame colour to be estab-  
lished.
