AND QUALITY!
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. When the fireplace is installed at el-
evations above 4,500ft, and in the absence of specific rec-
ommendations from the local authority having jurisdiction,
the certified high altitude input rating shall be reduced at
the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cool-
ing down cycles are normal and to be expected.
Maximum input is 24,000 BTU/hr for natural gas and pro-
pane. Maximum output for natural gas and propane is
20,400 BTU/hr at an efficiency of 85% with the fan on. Maxi-
mum A.F.U.E. (annual fuel utilization efficiency) rating is
79 % for natural gas and propane. This fireplace insert is
not approved for closet or recessed installations. It is ap-
proved for bathroom, bedroom and bed-sitting room in-
stallations and is suitable for mobile homes. The natural
gas model is suitable for installation in a mobile home that
is permanently positioned on its site and fuelled with natu-
ral gas.
This insert must be recessed into a vented noncombus-
tible wood-burning fireplace (prefabricated or masonry)
only. The minimum fireplace opening size in which the
heater is to be installed is:
HEIGHT 14½ inches
WIDTH 25 inches
DEPTH 11 inches
The minimum allowable chimney flue size is 6" round.
The minimum distance, from the bottom of a combustible
mantle projecting 3" maximum from the wall to the top of
the aluminium trim, is 3".
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean these parts. Buff
lightly with a clean dry cloth.
The glass is 3/16" ceramic glass available from your Na-
poleon / Wolf Steel Ltd. dealer. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE MA-
TERIALS. Clean the glass after the first 10 hours of opera-
tion 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.
THIS GAS FIREPLACE INSERT SHOULD BE INSTALLED
AND SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to con-
form with local codes. Installation practices vary from re-
gion to region 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 CAN1-
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
standard 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 installa-
tions, Sites and Community Standard ANSI/NFPA 501A in
the United States.
Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace
insert opened. 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 insert and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). The fireplace insert must be
isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure test-
ing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
A 1/8 inch NPT plug, accessible for test gauge connection,
must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply
connection to the fireplace insert.
The fireplace insert must be electrically connected and
grounded in accordance with local codes. In the absence
of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 CANADIAN
ELECTRICAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70-1990
NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States. The
blower power cord must be connected into a properly
grounded receptacle. The grounding prong must not be
removed from the cord plug.
