2.0 VENTING

!

WARNING

Risk of fire, maintain specified air space clearances to vent pipe and appliance.

THIS FIREPLACE USES A 4" EXHAUST / 7" AIR INTAKE VENT PIPE SYSTEM.

Refer to the section applicable to your installation.

For safe and proper operation of the fireplace follow the venting instruction exactly. Deviation from the minimum
vertical vent length can create difficulty in burner start-up and/or carboning. Under extreme vent configurations,
allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition. Vent lengths that pass through unheated
spaces (attics, garages, crawl spaces) should be insulated with the insulation wrapped in a protective sleeve to
minimize condensation. Provide a means for visually checking the vent connection to the fireplace after the
fireplace is installed. Use a firestop, vent pipe shield or attic insulation shield when penetrating interior walls, floor
or ceiling.

NOTE: If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled; reinstall per the instructions provided
for the initial installation.

2.1 VENTING LENGTHS AND COMPONENTS

Use only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent or Metal-Fab venting compo­nents. Minimum and maximum vent lengths, for both horizontal and vertical installations, and air terminal locations for
either system are set out in this manual and must be adhered to. For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American
Metal Amerivent and Metal-Fab follow the installation procedure provided with the venting components.

starter adaptor must be used with the following vent systems and may be purchased from the corresponding supplier:

Duravent W175-0053 Wolf Steel www.duravent.com

* For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent and Metal-Fab follow the installation
procedure found on the website for your venting supplier.

For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust flue, only the outer air intake joints must be sealed using a red high
temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant may be 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 fireplace flue collar which must be sealed
using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac.

When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only approved Wolf Steel rigid / flexible components with the following
termination kits: wall terminal kit GD222, GD222R, or 1/12 to 7/12 pitch roof terminal kit GD110, 8/12 to 12/12 roof terminal
kit GD111, flat roof terminal kit GD112 or periscope kit GD201 (for wall penetration below grade). With flexible venting, in
conjunction with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot vent kit GD220 or the 10 foot vent kit GD330.

For optimum flame appearance and fireplace 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.
Rigid and flexible venting systems must not be combined. Different venting manufacturer components must not be
combined.

3.4 RESTRICTING VERTICAL VENTS

Vertical terminations may display a very active fl ame. If this
appearance is not desirable, the vent exit must be restricted
using restrictor plate W500-0205. This reduces the velocity
of the exhaust gases, slowing down the fl ame pattern and
creating a more traditional appearance.

The plate has a series of holes to allow for adjustment.
Remove the two screws on either side of the exhaust col­lar inside the fi rebox. Install the plate in the desired set of
holes, then replace the screws.

It is recommended to secure in the third set of holes which
causes the greatest amount of restriction for vent lengths

9.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit an odor for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condition caused by the "burn-in"
of paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again. After extended periods of non-operation such as
following a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may emit a slight odor for a few hours. This is caused by dust particles
in the heat exchanger burning off. In both cases, open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING:

A. This fireplace is equipped with a pilot which must be lit by hand while following these instructions exactly.
B. Before operating smell all around the fireplace area for gas and next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air

and will settle on the floor.
C. Use only your hand to turn the gas control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try to repair
it. Call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.
D. Do not use this fireplace if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect
the fireplace and replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

• Turn off all gas to the fireplace.

• Open windows.

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electric switch; do not use any phone in your building.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor's phone. Follow the gas supplier's instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

Turn off the gas and electrical power before servicing the appliance.

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 vapors 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.

8. If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled, re-install and re-seal per the instructions provided for the

initial installation.

WARNING

Always light the pilot whether for the first time or if the gas supply has ran out, with the glass door

open or removed.

SYMPTOM PROBLEM TEST SOLUTION

Main burner
flame is a blue,
lazy, transparent
flame.

Blockage in vent.

Incorrect installation.

- Remove blockage. In really cold conditions, ice buildup
may occur on the terminal and should be removed as
required.

- Refer to “VENTING” section to ensure correct location of
storm collars.

Flames are
consistently too
large or too
small. Carboning
occurs.

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

Unit is over-fired or
underfired.

A

B

Air shutter has become
blocked.

Flame is impinging on the
logs or combustion
chamber.

- Check pressure readings:

Inlet pressure can be checked by turning screw (A)

counter-clockwise 2 or 3 turns and then placing
pressure gauge tubing over the test point. Gauge should
read 7” (minimum 4.5”) water column for natural gas or
13” (minimum 11”) water column for propane. Check
that main burner is operating on ‘HI’.

Outlet pressure can be checked the same as above

using screw (B). Gauge should read 3.5” water column
for natural gas or 10” water column for propane.
Check that main burner is operating on ‘HI’.

AFTER TAKING PRESSURE READINGS, BE SURE
TO TURN SCREWS CLOCKWISE FIRMLY TO
RESEAL. DO NOT OVER TORQUE.

Leak test with a soap and water solution.

- 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
orifice size as specified 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.
