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 specifi cs that apply to your
area,
for example: in Massachusetts State:
• The fi replace damper must be removed or welded in the open
position prior to installation of a fi replace insert or gas log.
• A carbon monoxide detector is required in all rooms containing
gas fi red appliances.
• The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.
• The fl exible 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 fi tter when installed within the commonwealth of
Massachusetts.
In absence of local codes, install to the current CAN1-B149
Installation Code in Canada or to the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1, and NFPA 54 in the United States.
Mobile home installation must conform with local codes. In
the absence of local codes, install to the current standard for
gas equipped mobile housing CAN/CSA Z240 MH Series in
Canada or the manufactured home construction and safety
standard, Title 24 CFR, part 3280, or the Fire Safety Criteria
for manufactured home installations, Sites and Community
Standard ANSI/NFPA 501A in the United States.
Objects placed in front of the fi replace must be kept a
minimum of 48" away from the front face of the unit.
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 ½ 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 ½ 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 fireplace, when installed with a blower
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.
, must be
FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS
BEEN TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND
QUALITY!
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. When
the valve is set to "HI", the manifold pressure under fl ow
conditions is 3.5 inches water column for natural gas and
10 inches water column for 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.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling
down cycles are normal and to be expected.
This appliance is only for use with the type of gas indicated
on the rating plate. This appliance is not convertible for use
with other gases, unless a certifi ed kit is used.
Maximum input is 11,500 BTU/hr for natural gas. Maximum
output for natural gas is 8,600 BTU/hr at an effi ciency of 75%.
Maximum input is 11,000 BTU/hr for propane. Maximum output
for propane gas is8,250 BTU/hr at an effi ciency of 75%.
Provide adequate accessibility clearance for
servicing and
operating the fi replace.
Never obstruct the front opening of the fi replace.
Provided that the clearance to combustibles are achieved,
the most desirable and benefi cial location for a Napoleon® fi replace is in the centre of a building, thereby allowing
the most effi
cient use of the heat created. The location of
windows, doors and the traffi c fl ow in the room where the fi replace 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.
RATING LABEL LOCATION: The rating label is located
under the control panel and is chained to the fi replace.
DO NOT REMOVE.

WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION
17
For optimum performance, it is recommended that
horizontal runs have a minimum 1" rise per foot when
using Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp, American Metal Amerivent, or Wolf Steel rigid or
fl exible vent components.
For safe and proper operation of the fi replace,
follow the venting instructions exactly.
HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs when venting through an exterior
wall. Having determined the correct height for the air terminal
location, cut and frame a hole in the exterior wall 9 7/8" wide
by 11 3/8" high to accommodate the fi restop assembly. Dry fi t the fi restop assembly before proceeding to ensure the
brackets on the rear surface fi t to the inside surface of the
horizontal framing. Firestop spacer and shield do not limit
the thickness of a wall. For wall construction when using less
than 2" x 6" framing, the shield must be cut to suit.
As an alternative to framing, the vent pipe can be enclosed
in the wall using Napoleon
NOTE: THE FIRESTOP ASSEMBLY MUST BE
INSTALLED WITH THE VENT SHIELD TO THE TOP.
The length of the vent shield may be cut shorter for combustible
walls that are less than 8 1/2" thick but the vent shield must
extend the full depth of the combustible wall.
1. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) around the corner
edge of the inside surface of the fi restop fi
restop assembly to the hole and secure using the 4 screws
(W570-0026) supplied in your manual baggie.
2. Once the vent pipe is installed in its fi nal position, apply
high temperature sealant W573-0002 (not supplied) between
the pipe and the fi restop.
NOTE: DO NOT FILL THE CAVITY BETWEEN THE PIPE
/ LINER AND THE FIRESTOP SLEEVE WITH ANY TYPE
OF MATERIAL.

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, cut and frame a 9
3/4" square opening in the ceiling and the roof to provide
the minimum clearance between the vent pipe and any
combustible material. Try to center the vent pipe location
midway between two joists to prevent
having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to
line up the center of the openings.
Do not fi ll this space with any
type of material.
FIGURE 20
A vent pipe shield will prevent any materials such as insulation,
from fi lling up the 1" air space around the pipe. Nail headers
between the 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 restop 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 is installed
in its fi nal position, apply sealant between the pipe and the fi restop assembly.
FIGURE 19

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.

SPACERS
Do not allow the 4" flexible vent pipe
to bunch up on horizontal or vertical
runs and elbows. Keep it pulled
tight. A 1 1/4” air gap between the 4"
and 7" flexible vent pipes all around
is required for safe operation. A
spacer is required at the start, middle
and end of each elbow to ensure this
gap is maintained. Spacers are
attached to the 4" flexible vent pipe
at predetermined intervals to
maintain a 1-1/4” air gap to the 7"
flexible vent pipe. These spacers

account the additional length needed for the fi nished wall surface. Slip
the vent pipe a minimum of 2" over the inner sleeve of the air terminal
and secure with 3 #8 screws. Apply a heavy bead of the high temperature
sealant W573-0007 (not supplied).
NOTE: If using pipe clamps to connect vent components, 3 screws
must also be used to ensure the connection cannot slip off.
2. Using the 7" fl exible vent pipe, slide over the outer combustion air
sleeve of the air terminal and secure with 3 #8 screws. Seal using high
temperature sealant W573-0002 (not supplied).
3. Insert the vent pipes through the fi restop maintaining the required
clearance to combustibles. Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright,
readable position), secure to the exterior wall and make weather tight by
sealing with caulking (not supplied).
4. If more vent pipe needs to be used to reach the fi replace, couple them
together as illustrated. The vent system must be supported approximately

FRAMING
It is best to frame your fi replace after it is positioned and the vent
system is installed. Frame to local building codes.
NOTE: In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation
or vapour barrier coming in contact with the fi replace body, it is
required that the walls of the fi replace enclosure be “fi nished” (ie:
drywall/sheetrock), as you would fi nish any other outside wall of a
home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained
within the cavity.
To install the fi replace face fl ush with the fi nished wall, position the
framework to accommodate the thickness of the fi nished wall.
It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this fi replace
system.
When roughing in the fi replace, raise the fi replace to accommodate
for the thickness of the fi nished fl oor 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
fl ashing accessories.
* HORIZONTAL VENT SECTIONS - A minimum clearance of 1" at the bottom and sides and 2" at the top of the vent pipe in all horizontal
runs to combustibles is required. Use fi restop spacer W010-1774 (supplied).
* VERTICAL VENT SECTIONS - A minimum of 1" all around the vent pipe on all vertical runs to combustibles is required except for clearances
in fi replace enclosures. See "Minimum Enclosure Clearances" section. Use fi restop spacer W500-0096 (not supplied).

erify the "S" wire for the sensor and the "I" wire for the ignitor are
connected to the correct terminals (not reverse) on the module and
pilot assembly.
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 .125" (1/8").
V
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 a simple ON/OFF switch
Verify the valve 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
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.

Pilot sparks but will not light
Continues to sparks
and pilot lights, but
main burner will not
light
- 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 connections. 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 orifi 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 circuit
is broken. A wrong orifi 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 with an emory cloth to remove any
contamination that may have accumulated on the sensor rod. Verify
continuity with multimeter with ohms set at the lowest range.

SYMPTOMPROBLEMTEST SOLUTION
Pilot lights
Stops sparking
/ pilot remains lit
but burner will
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 if the Green wire is disconnected from the valve.
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.
Main burner fl ame is a
blue, lazy, transparent
fl ame.

- Door is ajar
- Venting action is too great.
- Blockage in vent.Remove blockage. In really cold conditions, ice buildup may occur
- Incorrect installation.
- Sulphur from fuel is being de
posited on glass, logs or
combustion chamber
surfaces.
Realign door and secure.

Confi rm installation with venting parameters.
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.
