GAS INSTALLATION
Conversion Kits
The mobile home appliance is fi eld convertible between Natural
Gas (NG) and Propane (LP).
To convert from one gas to another consult your Napoleon dealer/
distributor.
Note: In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or
vapour barrier coming in contact with the fi replace body, it is recom-
mended that the walls of the fi replace enclosure be “fi nished” (ie:
drywall/sheetrock), as you would fi nish any other outside wall of a
home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained
within the cavity.
It is best to frame your fi replace after it is positioned and the vent
system is installed. Use 2x4's and frame to local building codes.
It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this fi replace
system.
When roughing in the fi replace, raise the fi replace to accommodate
for the thickness of the fi nished fl oor materials, 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 fl ash-
ing accessories.
This Mobile/Manufactured Home Listed appliance comes factory
equipped with a means to secure the unit. The fi replace is equipped
with two 1/4” diameter holes located in the front left and right cor-
ners of the base. For mobile home installations, the fi replace must
be fastened in place. Use #10 hex head screws, inserted through
the holes in the base to secure. Always turn off the pilot and the fuel
supply at the source, prior to moving the mobile home.
After moving the mobile home and prior to lighting the fi replace,
ensure that the logs are positioned correctly.
