Suitable for mobile home installation if installed in accordance with the current standard CAN/CSA Z240MH Series, for gas equipped mobile homes, in Canada or ANSI Z223.1 and NFPA 54 in the United States. The fi replace 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 fi replace 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 fi replace is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material other than wood fl ooring, the fi replace shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extend­ing the full width and depth. The optional heat circulating blower is supplied with a cord. If 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 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States.
Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before closing the door.
Under extreme vent configurations, allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.
FIGURE 1
Provide adequate ventilation and combustion air. Provide adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and operat­ing the fireplace. Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.

GENERAL INFORMATION
FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUALITY!
Maximum input is 50,000 BTU/hr for both natural gas and propane. When the fi replace is installed at elevations above 4,500ft, and in the absence of specifi c recommendations from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certifi ed high altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft. Maximum output for natural gas is 33,540 BTU/hr at an effi ciency of 63%; and 34,000 BTU/hr for propane at an effi ciency of 61%. 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 fl ow conditions is 3.5 inches water column for natural gas and 10 inches water column for propane. This fi replace is approved for bathroom, bedroom and bed­sitting room installations and is certifi ed for mobile home installation. The natural gas model can only be installed in a mobile home that is permanently positioned on its site and
fueled with natural gas.
This fireplace is only for use with the type of gas indicated on the rating plate. This fireplace is not convertible for use with other gases, unless a certified kit is used.
No external electricity (110 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. Change in fl ame appearance from “HI” to “LO” is more evident in natural gas than in propane.
W415-0614_05.15.07
CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean glass. Buff lightly with a clean dry cloth. The glass is 3/16” tempered glass avail­able from your NAPOLEON® / Wolf Steel Ltd. dealer. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS. Clean the glass after the fi rst 10 hours of operation with a recommended gas fi replace 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.
VENTING

We Suggest that our gas hearth products be installed and serviced by profession­als who are certified in the U.S. by the National Fire­place Institute (NFI) as NFI Gas Specialists.
VENTING LENGTHS & AIR TERMINAL
LOCATIONS
For safe and proper operation of the fi replace follow the venting instuction exactly.
Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length can create diffi culty in burner start-up and/or carboning.
Provide a means for visually checking the vent connection to the fi replace after the fi replace is installed.
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.
When using NAPOLEON® venting components, use only approved Wolf Steel Ltd. fl exible vent components with the following termination kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD622, or 1/12 TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD610, 8/12 TO 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD611, FLAT ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD612. With fl exible venting, in conjunction with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot vent kit GD620 or the 10 foot vent kit GD630. These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting of the fi replace.
The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet. The maximum number of allowable 8” vent connections is three horizontally or vertically (excluding the fi replace and the air terminal connections).
For optimum fl ame appearance and fi replace 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.
When venting, the horizontal run must be kept to a minimum of 16 inches or a maximum of 20 feet. If a 20 foot horizontal run is required, the fireplace must have a minimum vertical rise immediately off the fireplace of 57 inches. FIGURES 2a-c. When terminating vertically, the vertical rise is a minimum 34 inches and a maximum 40 feet above the fireplace. FIGURE 3.
FIGURES 2A-B
16" 24"
12"
FIGURE 3
For optimum performance, it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot. Provide a means for visually checking the vent connec­tion to the fireplace after the fireplace is installed. Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal or vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled tight. A 3/4” air gap between the inner and outer liner all around is required for safe operation. Use a firestop when penetrating interior walls, floor or ceiling. For safe and proper operation of the fireplace follow the venting instruction exactly. If vertical rises greater than 57 inches are necessary, the increased rise must be deducted from the horizontal run.

INSTALLATION
WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION
For optimum performance it is recommended that all
horizontal runs have a minimum of 1/4” rise per foot
using fl exible venting.
For safe and proper operation of the fi replace, follow
the venting instructions exactly.
HORIZONTAL TERMINATION: A clearance to com-
bustibles of 2” must be maintained when penetrating
combustible walls. The fi restop spacer (W615-0075)
supplied with the unit should be used to maintain this
clearance.
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.

a fi nished wall.
See fi gure15.
1. Mark and cut the vent pipe shield to the determined depth of the combustible wall. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) to the framework or to the shield plate (in the case of a fi nished wall) and secure the shield through the opening to the interior wall. The fi nal
location of the vent pipe shield should maintain the required clearance to the 10” vent pipe / liner. (See note above). Do not fi ll this cavity with any type of material. Apply a bead of
caulking around the fi restop spacer then along the edge of the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the fi replace. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its fi nal position, apply sealant between the pipe / liner and the fi restop spacer.

/16” W x 141/2” H openings in the ceiling and the roof to provide the minimum 2 inch clearance between the fi replace pipe / liner and any combustible material. Try to centre the exhaust pipe location midway between two joist to prevent having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to line up the centre of the openings. DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.

joist for extra support.
2. Apply a bead of 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 re- stop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the fi replace. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combus­tibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its fi nal position, apply sealant between the pipe / liner and the fi restop spacer.
3. In the attic, after the pipe / liner 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.
