GENERAL INSTALLATION
HEATER PLACEMENT
PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION
Have an authorized Napoleon® dealer install the heater. If you
install the heater yourself, have your dealer review your installation
plans and/or installation.
Draw out a detailed plan of the installation including dimensions
and verify the dimensions with the requirements listed in this
manual.
For built-in enclosures, when determining the location of the
heater, locate the wall studs (for horizontal penetrations). You may
wish to adjust the heater position slightly to ensure the vent does
not intersect with a framing member.
Heater must be positioned so that no combustibles are within, or
can swing within (e.g. drapes, doors), 48" of the front of the heater.
If the heater is placed in a location where the ceiling height is less
than 7' above the base of the heater, the installation must follow
the requirements in the section "Alcove Installations Require-
ments"

Check with local building offi cials for any permits required for
installation of this pellet heater and notify your insurance company
before proceeding with installation.
Before installing we recommend placing the heater outside and
load 5 pounds of pellets inside the hopper. Plug the heater in and
let it run on HIGH until the pellets run out. This will cure the paint
and burn off the oils on the steel, there by minimizing any smell
inside the home.
