LOCATION & CLEARANCES

Provide adequate accessibility clearance for

servicing and operating the stove.

Never obstruct the front opening of the stove.

STOVE DIMENSIONS

FIGURE 1

As long as clearance to combustibles is kept within the re­quired distances, the most desirable and benefi cial location
for a Napoleon stove is in the centre of a building, thereby
allowing the most effi cient use of the heat created. The loca-
tion of windows, doors and the traffi c fl ow in the room where
the stove is to be located should be considered. If possible,
you should choose a location where the vent will pass through
the house without cutting a fl oor or roof joist.

the corresponding supplier:

PART 4"/7" SUPPLIER

Duravent GDS924N Wolf Steel
Amerivent 4DSCB-N1 American Metal
Direct Temp 4DT-AAN Selkirk

For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust fl ue,
only the outer air intake joints must be sealed using a red high
temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant maybe used
on both the inner exhaust and outer intake vent pipe joints
of all other approved vent systems except for the exhaust
vent pipe connection to the fi replace fl ue collar which must
be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac.
High temperature sealant must be ordered separately.
When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only the
following vent kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD175 (7-1/2'
of venting included), WALL TERMINAL KIT GD176 (24" of
venting included), or 1/12 TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL

KIT GD110, 8/12 TO 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD111,
FLA T ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD112 or STOVE PERISCOPE
KIT GD180 (for wall penetration below grade) in conjunction

with the appropriate venting components.

For optimum performance, it is recom­mended that all horizontal runs have a
minimum ¼ inch rise per foot.

9

• For optimum fl ame appearance and stove performance,
keep the vent length and number of elbows to a

minimum.

• The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times.
Examine the air terminal at least once a year to verify
that it is unobstructed and undamaged.

The maximum horizontal run with a 57 inch vertical rise im­mediately above the stove is 20 feet . FIGURES 6a-b.

VERTICAL THROUGH EXISTING CHIMNEY

INSTALLATION

This appliance is designed to be attached to a 3" co-lin­ear aluminum fl ex vent system running the full length of a
masonry chimney.

The fl exliner accommdates any contours of a masonry
chimney, however, it is necessary to keep the fl exible liner
as straight as possible. The inlet air collar of the termina­tion cap must be connected to the air intake pipe.

Use Simpson Duravent Chimney Liner Termination Kit

- 923GK (Baseplate and Co-Linear to Co-Axial Adaptor.
Follow manufacturers (Simpson Dura-Vent) installation
instructions.
When installing the unit to this system, Duravent vent
components must be used. You must start with a Duravent
adaptor, GDS924N, directly off the unit. The GDS924N is
only available at your Napoleon dealer.

WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION

FIGURE 16

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION

This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall.
Having determined the air terminal location, cut and frame
a hole in an exterior wall with a minimum rectangle opening
of 10" x 9".
IMPORTANT: FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, THE
STOVE PIPE SHOULD RISE ¼" PER FOOT OF RUN.

1. Assemble the shield to the spacer as shown, using the

3 shorter screws supplied.

The shield is meant to protect combustible materials within
the wall. If the shield is deeper than the combustible portion
of the wall, cut to fi t.

2. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place the fi restop
spacer over the framework to restrict cold air from being drawn
into the room or around the stove. Ensure that both spacer
and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles.
Secure the spacer in place using the 4 longer screws sup­plied. Once the vent pipe is installed in its fi nal position, apply
sealant between the pipe and the fi restop spacer.

VERTICAL INSTALLATION

This application occurs
when venting through a
roof.

Installation kits for vari­ous roof pitches are
available from your Na­poleon dealer. See Ac­cessories to order the
specifi c kit required.

1. Determine the air terminal location and move the stove into
position. Cut and frame 9" x 10" openings in the ceiling and
the roof to provide the minimum 1 inch clearance between
the stove pipe and any combustible material. Try to center the
exhaust pipe location midway between two joist to prevent
having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to line up the center of
the openings.

DO NOT FILL THIS SP ACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MA TERIAL.

FIGURE 18

caulking (not supplied) to the framework or to the Wolf Steel
vent pipe shield plate or equivalent (in the case of a fi nished
ceiling), and secure over the opening in the ceiling. A fi restop
must be placed on the bottom of each framed opening in a
roof or ceiling that the venting system passes through. Apply
a bead of caulking all around and place a fi restop spacer over
the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the
room or around the stove. Ensure that both spacer and shield
maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the
vent pipe is installed in its fi nal position, apply sealant between
the pipe and the fi restop spacer.

3. In the attic, after the pipe has been installed, slide the
vent pipe collar down to cover
up the open end of the shield
and tighten. This will prevent any
materials, such as insulation,
from fi lling up the 1" air space

around the pipe.

HORIZONTAL VENTING INSTALLATION

FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.

ALL HORIZONTAL VENT RUNS MAY HAVE A 0" RISE

PER FOOT.

FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE IT IS RECOMMENDED

THAT ALL HORIZONTAL RUNS HAVE A MINIMUM

¼ INCH RISE PER FOOT.

ALL INNER EXHAUST AND OUTER INTAKE VENT PIPE

JOINTS MAY BE SEALED USING EITHER RED RTV

HIGH TEMP SILICONE SEALANT OR BLACK HIGH

TEMP MILL PAC WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE FIRE-

PLACE EXHAUST FLUE COLLAR WHICH MUST BE

SEALED USING MILL PAC (NOT SUPPLIED).

1. Stretch the 4" diameter aluminium fl exible liner to the re-

quired length taking into account the additional length needed
for the fi nished wall surface.
Spacers are attached to the 4" inner fl ex liner at predetermined

intervals to maintain a 1-1/4" air gap to the 7" outer stove pipe.
These spacers must not be removed.
Slip a 4" diameter length of aluminium fl exible liner a minimum
of 2" over the inner sleeve of the air terminal. Secure to the
sleeve using 3 screws. Seal the joint and screw heads using
the high temperature sealant.

2. Slip the fi rst section of 7" diameter stove pipe a minimum
of 2" over the outer sleeve of the air terminal. Secure to the
sleeve using 3 screws. Seal the joint and screw heads using
high temperature sealant.

3. Insert the liners through the fi restop / vent pipe shield.
Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright, readable
position), secure to the exterior wall. Make weather tight by
sealing with caulking (not supplied). The air terminal mounting
plate may be recessed (up to 1½" maximum) into the exterior
wall or siding.

4. If more than one length of liner needs to be used to reach
the stove, couple them together as illustrated in FIGURE 21.
Seal the joints using the same procedure as described
above.

The vent system must be supported approximately every
10 feet along a horizontal run. Use supports or equivalent
non-combustible strapping to maintain the 1" clearance from
combustibles.

VERTICAL VENTING INSTALLATION

1. Fasten the roof support
to the roof using the screws
provided. The roof support
is optional. In this case the
venting is to be adequately
supported using either an
alternate method suitable to
the authority having jurisdiction
or the optional roof support.

2. Stretch the inner aluminum fl ex
liner to the required length. Slip the
liner a minimum of 2” over the inner
sleeve of the air terminal connector
and secure with 3 #8 screws. Seal
using a heavy bead of the high
temperature sealant.

3.Repeat using the outer aluminum
fl ex liner.

4. Thread the air terminal connector
/ liner assembly down through
the roof. The air terminal must be
located vertically and plumb. Attach
the air terminal connector to the roof
support, ensuring that the top of the
air terminal is 16” above the highest
point that it penetrates the roof.

5. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the
sides of the chimney. Place the
fl ashing over the air terminal
connector leaving a min. 3/4”
of the air terminal connector
showing above the top of the
fl ashing. Slide the fl ashing
underneath the sides and upper
edge of the shingles. Ensure
that the air terminal connector
is properly centred within the
fl ashing, giving a 3/4” margin
all around. Fasten to the roof.
Do not nail through the lower
portion of the fl ashing. Make
weather-tight by sealing with
caulking. Where possible, cover
the sides and top edges of the
fl ashing with roofi ng material.

6. Aligning the seams of
the terminal and air terminal
connector, place the terminal
over the air terminal connector
making sure the liner goes into the hole in the terminal.
Secure with the three screws provided.

7. Apply a heavy bead of weatherproof caulking 2
inches above the fl ashing. Note: Maintain a minimum
2” space between the air inlet base and the storm collar.
Install the storm collar around the air terminal and slide
down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure that a weather­tight seal between the air terminal and the collar is
achieved.

Verify no loose connections, electrical shorts in the wiring or ground
out to any metal object.
Turn the ON/OFF switch to the "OFF" position. Remove the igniter
wire "I" from the module. Place the ON/OFF switch to the "ON" posi­tion. Hold a grounded wire about 3/16" away from the "I" terminal on
the module. If no spark the "I" terminal module must be replaced. If
there is a spark the "I" terminal is fi ne. Inspect pilot assembly for a
shorted wire or cracked insulator around the electrode.

- spark gap of the ignitor to the pilot should be .17" tor 1/8"

erify the transformer is installed and plugged into the module. Check
voltage of the transformer under load at the spade connections on
the module with the ON/OFF switch in the "ON" position. Acceptable
readings of a good transformer are between 3.2 and 2.8 volts A.C.
Remove and reinstall the wiring harness that plugs into the module.
Remove and verify continuity of each wire in wiring harness.
Troubleshoot the system with the simplest ON/OFF switch
Verify the value and pilot assemblies are properly grounded to the
metal chassis of the fi replace or log set.
Turn the ON/OFF switch to the "OFF" position. Remove the igniter
wire "I" from the module. Place the ON/OFF switch to the "ON" posi­tion. Hold a grounded wire about 3/16" away from the "I" terminal on

there is a spark the "I" terminal is fi ne. Inspect pilot assembly for a
shorted wire or cracked insulator around the electrode.

- Gas supply

- Module is not grounded

- Out of propane gas.

- Short or loose
connection in sensor rod

- Poor fl ame rectifi cation
or contaminated
sensor rod

- Poor grounding between
pilot assembly and
gas valve

- Damaged pilot or dirty
sensor rod

Verify that the incoming gas line ball valve is "Open". Verify that the
inlet pressure reading is within acceptable limits, inlet pressures must
not exceed 14" W.C.

Verify the value and pilot assemblies are properly grounded to the

metal chassis of the fi replace or log set.

- fi ll the tank.

Verify all conncetions. V erify the connections from the pilot assembly
are tight; also verify these connections are not grounding out to any
metal.
Verify the fl ame is engulfi ng the sensor rod. This will increase the
fl ame rectifi cation. Verify correct pilot orfi ce is installed and inlet gas
specifi cations to manual. (Remember, the fl ame carries the rectifi ca-

tion current, not the gas. If the fl ame lifts from pilot hood, the curcuit
is broken. A wrong orfi ce or too high of an inlet pressure can cause
the pilot fl ame to lift.) The sensor rod may need cleaning.

Verify that the wire harness is fi rmly connected to module

Verify that the ceramic insulator around the sensor rod is not cracked,
damaged, or loose. Verify the connection from the sensor rod to the
sensor wire. Clean sensor rod wih an enery cloth to remove any
contamination that may have accumulated on the sensor rod. Verify
continuity with multimeter with olms set at the lowest range.

not turn on

Exhaust fumes smelled
in room, headaches.

Carbon is being depos­ited on glass, logs or
combustion chamber
surfaces.

- Wiring / Connection

- Wiring harness

- Module or Valve

- Fireplace is spilling.

- Air shutter has become
blocked

- Flame is impinging on the
logs or combustion chamber.

Inspect all wires, ensure good tight connections. Verify that all
wiring is installed exactly as specifi ed.

Inspect the wiring harness, and verify the harness is tightly con­nected to the module. Verify that you have 7 wires and they are
connected in the right order.

Conduct the following test to verify if the problem is the module or
valve. T o measure voltages, turn multimeter to "DC" place the red
lead from multimeter on the screw on the terminal block for the
wire you are checking, touch black lead to ground (valve body).
Importantly , a "Zero" volts reading does not automatically indicate
a bad module, there may be too little resistance in the valve sole­noid. Check the Green wire disconnected from valve that the volt­age output from the module should be between 2 and 3 volts

Check all seals.

Ensure air shutter opening is free of lint or other obstructions.

Check that the logs are correctly positioned.
Open air shutter to increase the primary air.
Check the input rate: check the manifold pressure and orifi ce
size as specifi ed by the rating plate values.
Check that the door gasketing is not broken or missing and
that the seal is tight.
Check that both vent liners are free of holes and well sealed
at all joints.
Check that minimum rise per foot has been adhered to for
any horizontal venting.

Flames are very ag­gressive.

Refer to Figure 24 to ensure correct location of storm collars.

Clean the glass with a recommended gas fi replace glass cleaner.
DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WHEN HOT.
If deposits are not cleaned off regularly, the glass may become
permanently marked.
