GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS  
GENERAL INFORMATION  
This gas fireplace should be installed and serviced by a FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN  
qualified installer to conform with local codes. Installation TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUAL-  
practices vary from region to region and it is important to ITY! Maximum input is 45,000 BTU/hr for natural gas and  
know the specifics that apply to your area,  
for example: in Massachusetts State:  
40,000BTU/hr for propane. When the fireplace is installed  
at elevations above 4,500ft, and in the absence 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. Maximum out-  
put for natural gas is 36,900 BTU/hr at an efficiency of 82%  
with the fan on, 78.4% with the fan off; and 33,200 BTU/hr  
for propane at an efficiency of 83% with the fan on, 80%  
with the fan off. Minimum A.F.U.E. (Annual Fuel Utilization  
Efficiency) rating is 64%.  
• The fireplace damper must be removed or welded in the open  
position prior to installation of a 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  
product.  
• WARNING: This product must be installed by a licensed plumber  
or gas fitter when installed within the commonwealth of  
Massachusetts.  
Minimum inlet gas supply pressure is 4.5 inches water  
column for natural gas and 11 inches water column for  
propane. Maximum inlet gas pressure is 7 inches water  
column for natural gas and 13 inches water column for  
propane. Manifold pressure under flow conditions is 3.5  
inches water column for natural gas and 10 inches water  
column for propane.  
In absence of local codes, install to the current CAN/CGA -  
B149 Installation Code in Canada or to the National Fuel  
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, and NFPA 54 in the United States.

Z223.1 and NFPA 54 in the United States.  
This fireplace is approved for bathroom, bedroom and bed-  
sitting room installations and is suitable for mobile home  
installation.  
The fireplace and its individual shutoff valve must be discon-  
nected from the gas supply piping system during any pres-  
sure 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).  
No external electricity (110 volts or 24 volts) is required  
for the gas system operation.  
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cool-  
ing down cycles are normal and are to be expected. Change  
in flame appearance from "HI" to "LO" is more evident in  
natural gas than in propane.  
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 extend-  
ing the full width and depth.  
CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS

Use only Napoleon or Simpson Dura-Vent Model DV-GS  
venting components. Minimum and maximum vent lengths,  
for both horizontal and vertical installations, and air termi-  
nal locations for either system are set out in this manual  
and must be adhered to.  
When using Napoleon venting components, use only the  
following vent kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD-222R, or 1/12  
TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD-110, 8/12 TO 12/  
12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD-111, FLAT ROOF TERMINAL  
KIT GD-112 or PERISCOPE KIT GD-201 (for wall penetra-  
tion below grade) in conjunction with the various termina-  
tions, use either the 5 foot vent kit GD-220 or the 10 foot  
vent kit GD-330 For Simpson Dura-Vent, follow the installa-  
tion procedure provided with the venting components.

rises.  
For optimum flame appearance and fireplace performance,  
keep the vent length and number of elbows to a minimum.  
The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times.  
Examine the air terminal at least once a year to verify that it  
is unobstructed and undamaged.  
FIGURE 3  
• All horizontal runs must have a 1 inch rise per foot in all  
cases using Napoleon flexible venting components.  
• Horizontal runs can have a 0 inch rise per foot using  
SimpsonDura-VentorNapoleon rigid ventingcomponents.  
For optimum performance, it is recommended that all hori-  
zontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot using  
rigid venting.  
FIGURES 4a  
• Provide a means for visually checking the vent connec-  
tion to the fireplace after the fireplace is installed.  
• Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal or  
vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled tight. A 1¼" air  
gap between the inner and outer liner all around is re-  
quired for safe operation.  
When venting, the immediate horizontal run must be kept  
to a minimum of 10 inches or a maximum of 3 feet.  
• Use a firestop when penetrating interior walls, floor or  
ceiling.  
• For safe and proper operation of the fireplace follow the  
venting instruction exactly.  
• Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length can cre-  
ate difficulty in burner start-up and/or carboning.  
• Vent lengths that pass through unheated spaces (attics,  
garages, crawl space) should be insulated with the insu-  
lation wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize conden-  
sation.

INSTALLATION  
WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION  
For optimum performance, it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot using  
rigid venting.  
For safe and proper operation of the stove, follow the venting instructions exactly.  
HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION  
VERTICAL INSTALLATION  
This application occurs when vent-  
ing through an exterior wall.  
Having determined the air termi-  
nal location, cut and frame a hole  
in an exterior wall with a minimum  
square or round opening of 9".  
(As an alternative to framing, a vent  
pipe shield may be installed, en-  
This application occurs when venting through a roof. In-  
stallation kits for various roof pitches are available from  
your Napoleon dealer. See Accessories to order the spe-  
cific kit required.  
1. Determine the air ter-  
minal location and  
move the stove into po-  
sition. Cut and frame 9  
inch openings in the  
ceiling and the roof to  
provide the minimum 1  
inch clearance between  
the stove pipe and any  
combustible material.

1. Mark and cut the vent pipe  
shield to the determined depth of the  
combustible wall. Apply a bead of caulk-  
ing (not supplied) to the framework or to the  
shield plate (in the case of a finished wall) and secure the  
shield through the opening to the interior wall. The final  
location of the vent pipe shield should maintain the re-  
quired clearance to the 7" vent pipe. Do not fill this cavity  
with any type of material. Apply a bead of caulking all around  
and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield to restrict  
cold air from being drawn into the room or around the stove.  
Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required  
clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe is installed  
in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe and the  
firestop spacer.  
Try to centre the ex-  
haust pipe location  
midway between two  
joist to prevent hav-  
ing to cut them. Use  
a plumb bob to line  
up the centre of the  
openings.  
FIGURE 13  
DO NOT FILLTHIS SPACE WITHANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.  
A vent pipe shield will prevent any materials such as insu-  
lation, from filling up the 1" air space around the pipe. Nail  
headers between the joist for extra support.  
2. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the frame-  
work or to the Wolf Steel vent pipe shield plate or equiva-  
lent (in the case of a finished ceiling), and secure over the  
opening in the ceiling. A firestop must be placed on the  
bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the  
venting system passes through. Apply a bead of caulking  
all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield  
to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around  
the stove. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the  
required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe is  
installed in its final position, apply sealant between the  
pipe and the firestop spacer.  
OR  
3. In the attic, after the pipe  
has been installed, slide the  
vent pipe collar down to cover  
up the open end of the shield  
and tighten. This will prevent  
any materials, such as insu-  
lation, from filling up the 1" air  
space around the pipe.

Where possible, cover the sides and top edges of the flash-  
ing with roofing material.  
RESTRICTING VERTICAL VENTS  
Vertical installations running longer than 10 feet may dis-  
play a very active flame. If this appearance is not desirable,  
remove the brick baffle from the firebox, exposing the flue  
gas outlet openings. Bend the restrictor plates up (from  
their normal opening of 45°) into the flue openings. Re-  
place the brick baffle. This reduces the velocity of the ex-  
haust gases, slowing down the flame pattern and creating  
a more traditional gentle appearance. Specific instructions  
are shown in "Trouble Shooting".  
6. Apply a heavy bead of  
weatherproof  
caulking  
2 inches above the flashing.  
Slide the storm collar around  
the air terminal and down to  
the caulking. Tighten to en-  
sure that a weather-tight seal  
between the air terminal and  
the collar is achieved.  
FIGURE 19  
Attach the other storm collar centred between the air intake  
and the air exhaust slots onto the air terminal. Tighten  
securely. Attach the vertical rain cap.  
Spacers are attached to the 4" inner flex liner at prede-  
termined intervals to maintain a 1-1/4" air gap to the 7"  
outer liner. These spacers must not be removed.  
FIGURE 20  
7. If more liner needs to be used to reach the fireplace,  
follow the same procedure as found in HORIZONTAL AIR  
TERMINAL INSTALLATION. The vent system must be sup-  
ported approximately every 3 feet for both vertical and hori-  
zontal runs. Use Wolf Steel support ring assembly  
W010-0370 or equivalent noncombustible strapping to  
maintain the minimum 1" clearance to combustibles as  
well as to prevent sagging.  
FIREPLACE VENT CONNECTION  
1. Install the 4 inch diameter aluminium flexible liner to  
the fireplace. Secure with 3 screws and flat washers. Seal  
the joint and screw holes using the high temperature seal-  
ant provided.  
2. Install the 7 inch diameter aluminium flexible liner to  
the fireplace. Attach and seal the joints.

USING RIGID VENT COMPONENTS  
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace, follow the venting instructions exactly.  
For optimum performance, it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot  
using rigid venting.  
5. Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of  
the outside sleeve of the air terminal. Slip a 7" diameter  
coupler over the sleeve and secure as before. Trim the 7"  
coupler even with the 4" coupler end.  
The vent system must be supported approximately every 3  
feet for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use Wolf Steel  
vent spacers W615-0033 every 3 feet and either side of  
each elbow to maintain the minimum 1¼" clearance be-  
tween the outer and inner vent pipes. Use Wolf Steel sup-  
port ring assembly W010-0370 or equivalent noncombus-  
tible strapping to maintain the minimum 1" clearance to  
combustibles for both vertical and horizontal runs.  
6. Thread the air terminal pipe  
assembly down through the roof  
FIGURE 23  
support and attach, ensuring that  
a minimum 16" of air terminal will  
penetrate the roof when fas-  
tened. If the attic space is tight,  
we recommend threading the  
Wolf Steel vent pipe collar or  
equivalent loosely onto the air  
terminal assembly as it is  
passed through the attic. The air  
terminal must be located  
vertically and plumb.  
HORIZONTAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION  
1. Move the fireplace into position. Measure the vent length  
required between terminal and fireplace taking into account  
the additional length needed for the finished wall surface  
and any 1¼" overlaps between venting components.  
2. Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of  
the 4" inner collar of the fireplace. Attach the first vent  
component and secure using 3 self tapping screws. Re-  
peat using 7" piping.  
7. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the  
sides of the chimney. Place the flashing over the air termi-  
nal and slide it underneath the sides and upper edge of  
the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal is properly cen-  
tred within the flashing, giving a 3/4" 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 flash-  
ing with roofing material.  
3. Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright, read-  
able position), insert into both vent pipes with a twisting  
motion to ensure that both the terminal sleeves engage into  
the vent pipes and sealant. Secure the terminal to the exte-  
rior wall and make weather tight by sealing with caulking  
(not supplied).  
The air terminal may be recessed into the exterior  
wall or siding by 1½", the depth of the return flange.  
8. Apply a heavy bead of waterproof caulking 2 inches  
above the flashing. Slide the storm collar around the air  
terminal and down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure that a  
weather-tight seal between the air terminal and the collar  
is achieved. Attach the other storm collar centred between  
the air intake and air exhaust slots onto the air terminal.  
Tighten securely. Attach the rain cap.  
9. Continue adding rigid venting sections, sealing and  
securing as above. Attach a 4" collapsed telescopic pipe to  
the last section of rigid piping. Secure with screws and  
seal. Repeat using a 7" telescopic pipe.  
FIGURE 22  
10. Run a bead of high temperature sealant around the  
outside of the 4" elbow. Pull the adjustable pipe a mini-  
mum 2" onto the elbow. Secure with 3 screws. Repeat with  
the 7" telescopic pipe.  
VERTICAL VENTING INSTALLATION  
1. Attach 4" and 7" elbows to the stove. Apply high tem-  
perature sealant and secure the joints with 3 screws.  
11. In the attic, slide the vent pipe collar down to cover up  
the open end of the shield and tighten. This will prevent  
any materials, such as insulation, from filling up the 1" air  
space around the pipe.  
2. Move the fireplace into position.  
3. Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws  
provided. The roof support is optional. The venting is to be  
adequately supported using either an alternate method  
suitable to the authority having jurisdiction or the optional  
roof support.  
4. Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of  
the inner sleeve of the air terminal. Slip a 4" diameter cou-  
pler over the sleeve and secure using 3 screws.

INSTALLATION / FRAMING  
Combustible materials may be installed flush with the front  
INSTALLATION  
of the fireplace but must not cover any of the black face-  
areas of the fireplace. Noncombustible material (brick,  
stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas.  
It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this  
fireplace system.  
Proceed once the vent installation is complete.  
Move the fireplace into position and secure using the nail-  
ing tabs (2 per side) and/or secure to the floor using #10  
screws (not supplied).  
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 accesso-  
ries.  
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 build-  
ing codes. To install the fireplace face flush with the fin-  
ished wall, position the framework to accommodate the  
thickness of the finished wall. Pull out the four nailing tabs,  
attached on either side of the fireplace and secure to the 2x4  
framing to facilitate drywall installation.  
Objects placed in front of the fireplace should be kept a  
minimum of 48" away from the front face.  
MANTLE CLEARANCES & ENCLOSURES  
FIGURE 24  
Combustible mantle clearance  
can vary according to the man-  
tle depth. Use the graph to help  
evaluate the clearance needed.

1" clearance to combustibles from the vent pipe  
must be maintained .  
The U-channel may be removed if framing is faced with a  
noncombustible material (cement board) (not supplied).  
These same mantle clearance requirements apply to  
any combustibles protruding on either side of the  
fireplace.  
FIGURE 26  
MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION  
The fireplace is equipped with two 1/4" diameter holes  
located in the front left and right corners of the base. For  
mobile home installations, the fireplace must be fastened  
in place. Use #10 screws, inserted through the holes in  
the base to secure. It is recommended that the fireplace  
be secured in all installations.  
In Canada, mobile home installation may be vented hori-  
zontally or vertically. In the United States, it may only be  
installed vertically. See "Vertical Venting" or "Horizontal Air  
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. This will ensure that clearance  
to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.

BRICK PANEL INSTALLATION  
1. Remove the two brick retainers located on either of the  
firebox sides as illustrated.  
2. Remove the protective plastic wrap from all four pan-  
els. Centre the rear brick panel against the back of the  
firebox.  
3. Tilt and insert the left brick panel against the left side  
of the firebox, ensuring that it butts up to the rear panel.  
Excess material may be trimmed with a utility knife. Secure  
in place using a retainer bracket and 2 of the screws. Re-  
peat for the right side.  
4. Slide the upper brick baffle into place over the side  
brick panels.  
When shipped, the brick panels range in colour from  
white to varying shades of brown. During initial use,  
the panels will darken temporarily and emit a slight  
odour for a few hours. This is a normal condition that  
will not occur again. Simply open a window to suffi-  
ciently ventilate the room. The appearance of the pan-  
els will permanently lighten in colour with use.

OPERATION / MAINTENANCE  
After extended periods of non-operation such as following  
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS  
a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may  
emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust  
particles in the heat exchanger burning off. Open a window  
to sufficiently ventilate 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 manufacturing  
process and will not occur again. Simply open a window to  
sufficiently ventilate the room.  
Purge the gas line with the glass door open. assure that  
a continuous gas flow is at the burner before closing  
the door. Allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to  
stabilize after ignition.  
FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING:  
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS  
• Turn off all gas to the fireplace.  
• Open windows.  
A. This fireplace is equipped with a pilot which must be lit by  
hand while following these instructions exactly.  
B. Before operating smell all around the fireplace area for  
gas and next to the floor because some gas is heavier  
than air and will settle on the floor.  
• Do not try to light any appliance.  
• Do not touch any electric switch; do  
not use any phone in your building.  
GAS KNOB  
C. Use only your hand to turn the gas control knob. Never  
use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try to  
repair it. Call a qualified service technician. Force or at-  
tempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.  
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbour's  
phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.  
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire de-  
partment.  
D. Do not use this fireplace if any part has been under water.  
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect

Inlet pressure can be checked by turning screw (A) counter-clock-  
wise 2 or 3 turns and then placing pressure gauge tubing over the  
test point. Gauge should read 7" (minimum 4.5") water column for  
natural gas or 13" (11" minimum) water column for propane. Check  
that main burner is operating on "HI".  
Outlet pressure can be checked the same as above using screw  
(B). Gauge should read 3.5" water column for natural gas or 10"
