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

VENTING
5
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.
Themaximum 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.

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.
