THIS GAS FIREPLACE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND
SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to conform with
local codes. Installation practices vary from region to re-
gion and it is important to know the specifics that apply to
your area,
for example: in Massachusetts State:
• 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.
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.
Mobile home installation must conform with local codes.
In the absence of local codes, install to the current stand-
ard for gas equipped mobile housing CAN/CSA Z240 MH
Series in Canada or the manufactured home construction
and safety standard, Title 24 CFR, part 3280, or the Fire
Safety Criteria for manufactured home installations, Sites
and Community Standard ANSI/NFPA 5OIA in the United
States.
Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace
open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner
before closing the door.
Under extreme vent configurations, allow several min-
utes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.
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 ex-
cess 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).
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.
If the optional heat circulating blower is installed, the blower
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.
Minimum clearance to combustible construction
from the fireplace:
sides, back, bottom, and top 0 inches
recessed depth (corner installation)
2525
2525
25 inches
Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept
a minimum of 48" away from the glass front faces of
the unit.
FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, ALL BURNER ASSEMBLIES
HAVE BEEN TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE THEIR OPERA-
TIONS AND QUALITY! Maximum input is 30,000 BTU/h
for natural gas and 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 20,400 BTU/hr at an efficiency of 68%
with the fan on.
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.
This fireplace is approved for bedroom and bed-sitting room
installations and is suitable for mobile home installation.
NO EXTERNAL ELECTRICITY (110 VOLTS OR 24 VOLTS) IS
REQUIRED FOR THE GAS SYSTEM OPERATION. Expan-
sion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling
down cycles are normal and are to be expected.
If utilizing one of Wolf Steel's trim or surround kits, follow
the framing instructions on page 14 and the finishing in-
structions on page 23, for removal of the top extension.
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean these parts. Buff
lightly with a clean dry cloth. The glass is 3/16" tempered
glass available from your Napoleon / Wolf Steel Ltd. dealer.
Do not substitute materials.
If the door glass should crack or break, do not operate the
fireplace. Replace only with a door assembly certified with
the fireplace. See DOOR, LOUVRE AND TRIM INSTALLA-
TION for removal and replacement details. 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.
Provide adequate ventilation air. Provide adequate ac-
cessibility clearance for servicing and operating the fire-
place. Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace follow the
venting instruction exactly.
Provide a means for visually checking the vent connec-
tion to the fireplace after the fireplace is installed.
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.
