In the United States: While it is not required, it is recom-
mended that a chimney liner be installed that is continuous
from the insert to the top of the chimney, particularly when the
insert is installed in a basement. For this type of connection,
use the “In Canada” installation instructions above.
In the United States, continued:
If a continuous liner is not installed, a “direct ue connec-
tion” must be made. The direct ue connection requires a
non-combustible connector that extends from the insert into
the chimney ue liner and also that the installed ue cover
be sealed below the entry point of the connector to prevent
dilution of combustion products in the chimney ue with air
from inside the house. Cap the top of the chimney using an
approved rain cap.
1402 INSERT MODEL
An optional low clearance ue connector is available to fa-
cilitate hook up into a tight tting replace. Consult your local
dealer for details.
The following installation requirements must be observed
when installing solid fuel burning inserts into factory built
replaces.
1. The factory built replace must be listed per UL 127 or
ULC S610.
2. Clearances to any combustible material surrounding this
insert as identi ed in Figure 10 must be followed. These clear-
ance requirements supersede any pre-existing facing material
clearances listed for the factory built replace.
3. Installation must include a full height listed chimney liner
meeting HT requirements (2100°F) per 1777 (U.S.) or ULC
S635 (Canada). The liner must be securely attached to the
insert ue collar and the chimney top.
4. Means must be provided to prevent room air passage to the
chimney cavity of the replace. This may be accomplished by
sealing the damper area around the chimney liner, or sealing
the replace front.
5. The air ow within and around the replace shall not be
altered by the installation of the insert (i.e. no louvres or cool-
ing air inlet or outlet ports are blocked), unless speci cally
tested as such for each factory built replace manufacturer
and model line. (Note - using a louvred face plate (surround)
complies with this requirement)
6. Alteration of the replace in any manner is not permitted
with the following exceptions;
a. external trim pieces which do not affect the operation
of the replace may be removed providing they can be
stored on or within the replace for reassembly if the insert
is removed.
b. the chimney damper may be removed to install the
chimney liner.
7. Circulating air chambers (i.e. in a steel replace liner or
metal heat circulator) shall not be blocked.
8. Means must be provided for removal of the insert to clean
the chimney ue.
9. Inserts that project in front of the replace must be supplied
with appropriate support means.
10. A permanent metal warning label must be attached to the
back of the replace stating that the replace must be restored
to its original condition for safe use without the insert.
Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bearings,
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 covered by the warranty policy.
Use of the blower increases the output of
heat.
Provisions have been made on the stove to install an optional
blower kit (EP62-1) that comes complete with a variable speed
switch to turn the blower on and off, as well as adjusting the
blower speed. An optional thermostatic sensor control kit,
EP36, to thermally activate the blower is also available.
NOTE: if the optional blower (EP62-1) is installed, the
blower guard (W320-0011) must be installed. This guard
is available from your Napoleon dealer.
Attach the mounting bracket to the blower
assembly. Then attach the mounting
bracket to the back of your stove, push
on the variable speed knob and plug into
any grounded electrical outlet.
The
1402 inserts comes equipped with two blowers, while the
1101 has one blower. These blowers are thermally activated.
Depending on the intensity of the re, the blowers will start
15-30 minutes after lighting. The heat sensor for the 1402 is
located on the right hand side of the unit and the 1101 has a
heat sensor located at the back on the blower access door.
When rst starting the re, the sensor may be impeded by
a large log or an unevenly burning re, causing the blowers
to cycle on and off. To control this, either build your re up
evenly or turn down the blowers until the right side of the
rebox is hot.
1. Turn off all electrical power to the
insert. Remove the glass door and
set aside in a safe place.
2. Remove the top right side bricks
from inside the rebox, 4-#7’s and
2-#2’s. Then remove the rest of the
side and back bricks from the right
side of the 1101 insert. It is not neces-
sary to remove the bottom bricks.
