Except for their different depths, models 1100, 1150, 1400,
1900 and the fireplace inserts 1101 and 1401 are identical
and use the same burning principles. They were specifi-
cally designed over many months of research to meet the
1990 U.S.A. EPA particulate emission standards and have
been extensively tested in Canadian and American labora-
tories. This system is the most efficient, simple and trouble
free we know and works as follows:
Combustion air enters through two holes in the bottom
covered by a single draft control. Air from the front hole
goes up on either side of the door into a preheating airwash
located across the top and then down the window to feed
the fire and also to ensure that the glass remains clean. Air
from this hole also feeds directly into the combustion cham-
ber at hearth level. Secondary air from the rear hole travels
up the back in the secondary air housing to the manifold
located at the top and shoots out laterally to oxidize the
gases below the smoke exit.
The combustion chamber is lined with high temperature
firebrick on 2 sides, the back and across the bottom, with a
layer of fibre baffles at the top to maintain a high tempera-
ture in the combustion chamber so that gases mixing with
the preheated air from the secondary air manifold tube are
easily ignited and burned. The stove sides and back are
shielded to direct the heat upwards and forwards into the
room.
Be sure to provide sufficient combustion air. There are many
other appliances in your home competing for air such as: a
kitchen range hood, forced air heating devices or a bath-
room exhaust fan.
Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving an-
other appliance.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cool-
ing down cycles are normal and to be expected.
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. This is caused by dust
particles on the firebox burning off. Open a window to suf-
ficiently ventilate the room.
CALIFORNIA PROP 65 WARNING:
Use of this product may produce smoke which
contains chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm.
PEDESTAL MODELS ONLY
If the outside air feature of the stove is utilized, you should
never experience a shortage of combustion air. If you
choose not to utilize outside air and experience draft or
smoking problems, you may need to open a door or win-
dow.
WARNING: Burning your unit with the ash dump
door open or ajar creates a fire hazard that may
result in discoloration to the gold plated door, in-
ternal damage to the stove or a house and/
or chimney fire.
To ensure that the ash dump door is tightly closed, allow
the door to snap shut dislodging anything (ashes or pieces
of coal) that may be stuck in the opening.
LEG MODELS ONLY
If you experience smoking problems, you may need to open
a door, a window or otherwise provide some method of
supplying combustion air to the unit.
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean these parts. Buff
lightly with a clean dry cloth.
Prolonged high temperature burning with the door ajar may
cause a permanent rainbowing effect on the lower edge of
a gold plated door.
Porcelain enamel components must be handled with care.
The baked-on finish is "glass". If struck, it will chip. Touch-
up paint is available through your Napoleon dealer.
If the glass is not kept clean permanent discolouration and
/ or blemishes may result. Normally a hot fire will clean the
glass. The most common reasons for dirty glass include;
not using sufficient fuel to get the stove thoroughly hot, us-
ing green or wet wood, closing the draft so far that there is
insufficient air for complete combustion. If it is necessary
to clean the glass, use a soft cloth with a nonabrasive
cleaner.
DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WHEN HOT!
The glass is very strong but do not let burning fuel rest
against it and always close the door gently. If the glass
should ever crack while the fire is burning, do not open the
door until the fire is out and do not operate the stove again
until the glass has been replaced with a new 5mm thick
plate of ceramic glass, available from your Napoleon / Wolf
Steel Ltd. dealer.
DO NOT SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS.
TO REMOVE THE GLASS: When the unit is cool, open the
door and remove the screws and brackets holding the
glass in place. Remove all broken glass. Wrap the edges
of the new glass with a U-shaped strip of fiberglass
gasket, covering 1/4" on each side. Place the glass with
the fiberglass gasket in position and replace the brackets
and screws. When finished, you should be able to move
the glass slightly, horizontally and vertically.
