GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
This gas fireplace should be installed and serviced by
a qualified installer to conform with local codes.
Installation practices vary from region 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 the 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 the fireplace to the
current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or the
current CAN/CGA B149, Installation Codes.
The fireplace 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 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 fan or blower is installed, the junction
box 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
NA TIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States.
GENERAL INFORMATION
FOR YOUR SA TISF ACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS
BEEN TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION
AND QUALITY! Maximum input for the fireplace is
17,000 BTU/h for natural gas and propane. When the
fireplace is installed at elevations above 4,500ft, and in
the absense of specific recommendations 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.
Minimum inlet gas supply pressure is 4.5 inches water
column for natural gas and 1 1 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 installation.
No external electricity (1 10 volts or 24 volts) is required
for the gas system operation. Expansion / contraction
noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are
normal and are to be expected.
CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean plated parts. Buff
lightly with a clean dry cloth. The fireplace is factory
equipped with 3/16" thick tempered glass. Use only replacement glass available from your Napoleon dealer.
Do not substitute materials.
Clean the glass after the first 10 hours of operation with
a recommended gas fireplace glass cleaner. Thereaf ter
clean as required.
Do not clean glass when hot!
If the glass is not kept clean permanent discolouration
and / or blemishes may result.
Use only accessories designed for and listed with
your specific fireplace.
Provide adequate ventilation and combustion air. Provide adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and
operating the fireplace. Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.
Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a
minimum of 48" away from the front face of the unit.
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace follow the
venting & operating instructions exactly.
Provide a means for visually checking the vent connection to the fireplace after the fireplace is installed.
In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation
and vapour barrier coming into 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 wall of the home. This will ensure
that clearance to combustibles is maintained within the
cavity .

This is a vented appliance and must be connected to a
chimney in accordance with the current installation
codes. In absence of local codes, install to the current
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or the current
CAN/CGA B149, Installation Codes. This model can be
common-vented.
A minimum four inch diameter (4"ø) B-vent or class A vent
is required. A minimum 10' vent height is required. Secure
the B-vent to the exhaust collar on the stove top with 3
screws. In cold climates, the use of a B-vent and an insulated chase is recommended.
SAFETY SWITCH
This thermally activated switch, located in front of the draft
hood, senses an increase in temperature and acts as a
safety shut-off (See 'A' below). It shuts down the gas to the
main burner in the event of a severe downdraft of air or a
blocked or disconnected chimney flue. If the flue is blocked
or has no "draw", the safety switch will automatically shut
off the supply of gas to the main burner within 10 minutes.
This switch must be manually reset by depressing the
plunger. Refer to Figure 2.
Tampering with the safety switch can result in carbon
monoxide poisoning and possible death.

HIGH LIMIT SWITCH
This thermally activated switch, located in front of the draft
hood, senses an increase in temperature and acts as a
safety shut-off (See 'A' below). It shuts down the gas to the
main burner in the unlikely event of the unit overheating.
The HI Limit switch will automatically reset after the unit
has cooled down, resuming gas flow to the main burner.
FIGURE 3
VENTING ACTION CHECK
A test for correct venting action must be made before
the installed unit can be left with the customer.
Follow the procedure below:
1. Close all doors and windows in the room / start
exhaust fans in the home / turn the fireplace blower off (if so
equipped).
2. Set controls to "high" and light the unit.
3. Wait 5 minutes. Light a match and hold to the front of
the draft draft hood. FIGURES 4 & 5.

GAS INSTALLATION FRAMING
Proceed once the vent installation is complete.
1. Move the fireplace into position and secure using the
nailing tabs and/or secure to the floor through the 1/4"ø
holes located at either end of the base.
2. Route a 3/8" N.P.T. black iron gas line, 1/2" type-L
copper tubing or equivalent to the fireplace.
3. For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall
switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a convenient location. Route 2-strand (solid core) millivolt wire
through the electrical hole located at the bottom left side of
the unit. The recommended maximum lead length depends on wire size:
WIRE SIZE MAX. LENGTH
14gauge 100 feet
16gauge 60 feet
Attach the one lead to terminal 3 (located on the gas valve)
and the other lead to the vent safety switch wire ( located
loose in the valve compartment). See FIGURE 3.
Do not connect either the wall switch, thermostat or
gas valve to electricity (110 volts).
4. Install rigid black pipe, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or, if
local codes permit, a 3/8" flex connector and shutoff valve
to the gas line and the fireplace gas valve. Seal and tighten
securely. An adapter fitting is required between the gas
valve and the copper tubing or flex connector. DO NOT KINK

It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned and
the vent system is installed. Use 2x4's and frame to local
building codes.
Combustible materials may be installed flush with the front
of the fireplace but must not cover any of the black faceareas of the fireplace. Non-combustible material (brick,
stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas.
Combustible objects, like furniture, placed in front of the
fireplace, must be kept a minimum of 48" away from the
front face.
In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation and
vapour barrier coming into 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 wall of the home. This will ensure that clearance to
combustibles is maintained within the cavity.
It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this
fireplace system.
When roughing in the fireplace, raise the fireplace to accommodate for the thickness of the finished floor materials, i.e. tile, carpeting, hard wood, which if not planned for
will interfere with the opening of the lower access door and
the installation of many decorative flashing accessories.

face is offset with the front edge of the
corner post (approx. ½"). Centre the
nailing tab vertically on the corner
post.
Figure 12 a.
Drill through the centre of the top and
bottom slots in the nailing tab. Secure
using the two sheet metal screws
supplied. This allows the nailing tab
to slide back and forth for desired framing. Figure 12 b.
2) To determine the final location of the nailing tab
you must first determine the thickness of your finishing
material (i.e. drywall). This will determine the dimension
from the front edge of the corner post to the nailing tab.
Once the nailing tab is in the desired location, drill through
the centre hole of the nailing tab. Secure with a sheet metal
screw*. Figure 12 c.
* Additional set screws may be installed.

2. Move the two small logs (#2 & #3) into position, lining
up the studs located on the burner with the holes on the
bottom of the logs. Ensure that the small logs sit flat on the
burner.
1. Place the back log (#1) onto the log
support tray and in front of the tabs. The
tabs maintain an air space between the
log and firebox back to facilitate combustion air flow. Ensure that the back of the
log rests against the brackets on the back
wall of the firebox.
5. Place the bottom of the right crossover log (#6) against
the right firebox side and pulled forward to the grate. The
top of the log should rest in the pocket provided on the
center log (#5).
CHARCOAL EMBERS
Randomly place the charcoal embers along the front and
sides of the log support tray in a realistic manner. Fine dust
found in the bottom of the bag should not be used.
Tear the embers into pieces and place along the front row
GLOWING EMBERS
of ports covering all of the burner area in front of the small
logs (#2 & #3). Care should be taken to shred the embers
into thin, small irregular pieces as only the exposed edges
of the fibre hairs will glow. The ember material will only
glow when exposed to direct flame; however, care
should be taken to not block the burner ports.
Blocked burner ports can cause an incorrect flame pattern,
carbon deposits and delayed ignition. PHAZERTM logs glow
when exposed to direct flame. Use only certified "glowing
embers" and PHAZERTM logs available from your Napoleon dealer.

MAINTENANCE
Turn off the gas and electrical power before servicing
the fireplace.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
This fireplace and its venting system should be inspected
before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. The fireplace area must be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapours
and liquids. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must
not be obstructed.
1. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assembly,
remove the logs to expose both assemblies.
2. Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air shutter
opening and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing, at least once a year.

3. Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out
any of the ports which may not be burning or are not burning properly.
4. Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to
engulf the thermocouple and thermopile and reaches toward the burner with the third jet.
5. Replace the cleaned logs.
6. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on
all openings when the gas knob for the burner is turned
on. A 5 to 10 second total light-up period is satisfactory. If
ignition takes longer, consult your Napoleon dealer / distributor.
7. Check that the gasketing on the sides, top and bottom of
the door is not broken or missing. Replace if necessary.
PILOT BURNER ADJUSTMENT
Adjust the pilot screw to provide properly sized flame. Turn
in a clockwise direction to reduce the gas flow.

Closing the air shutter will cause a more yellow flame, but
can lead to carboning. Opening the air shutter will cause a
more blue flame, but can cause flame lifting from the burner
ports. The flame may not appear yellow immediately; allow 15 to 30 minutes for the final flame colour to be established.
