WARNING:
Please read this entire manual before you install and use your new room heater. Failure to
follow instructions may result in property damage, bodily injury, or even death.
If this unit is not properly installed, a house fire may result.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Follow the installation directions. This unit can be very hot when burning. Combustible mate-
rials such as firewood, wet clothing, etc. placed too close can catch fire. Adults and especially
children should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperatures and should stay away
to avoid burns or clothing ignition. Keep young children and animals away when the fireplace
is hot. The chimney must be sound and free of cracks. Before installing your unit, contact the
local building or fire authority and follow their guidelines.
The door must be kept closed during operation to prevent smoke, embers from entering the
room. Burn wood directly on firebricks. Do not use a grate or elevate the fire. At least 14 square
inches (90 sq.cm.) of outside air must be admitted to the room or directly to the unit through a
4 inch (10cm.) diameter pipe. This unit is designed to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies
and lower emissions generally result when burning air dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut hardwoods. Do not start a fire with chemicals or
fluids such as gasoline, engine oil, etc. Do not burn treated wood, coal, charcoal, coloured
paper, cardboard, solvents or garbage which tend to produce more pollution than wood. Do
not let the unit become hot enough for any part to glow red.
KEEP THE STOVE TOP TEMPERATURE BELOW 700°F (371°C). Attempts to achieve heat output
rates that exceed design specifications can result in steel distortion and damage.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Except for their different depths, models 1100, 1150, 1400,
1900 and the fireplace inserts 1101, 1401, and 1402 are
identical and use the same burning principles. They were
specifically designed over many months of research to meet
the 1990 U.S.A. EPA particulate emission standards and
have been extensively tested in Canadian and American
laboratories. This system is the most efficient, simple and
trouble free we know and works as follows:
Combustion air enters through two holes in the bottom
covered by a single draft control. Air from the front hole
goes up on either side of the door into a preheating airwash
located across the top and then down the window to feed
the fire and also to ensure that the glass remains clean. Air
from this hole also feeds directly into the combustion chamber at hearth level. Secondary air from the rear hole travels
up the back in the secondary air housing to the manifold
located at the top and shoots out laterally to oxidize the
gases below the smoke exit.
The combustion chamber is lined with high temperature
firebrick on 2 sides, the back and across the bottom, with a
layer of fibre baffles at the top to maintain a high temperature in the combustion chamber so that gases mixing with
the preheated air from the secondary air manifold tube are
easily ignited and burned. The stove sides and back are
shielded to direct the heat upwards and forwards into the
room.
PEDESTAL MODELS ONLY
If the outside air feature of the stove is utilized, you should
never experience a shortage of combustion air. If you
choose not to utilize outside air and experience draft or
smoking problems, you may need to open a door or window.
WARNING: Burning your unit with the ash dump
door open or ajar creates a fire hazard that may
result in discoloration to the gold plated door, internal damage to the stove or a house and/
or chimney fire.
To ensure that the ash dump door is tightly closed, allow
the door to snap shut dislodging anything (ashes or pieces
of coal) that may be stuck in the opening.
LEG MODELS ONLY
If you experience smoking problems, you may need to open
a door, a window or otherwise provide some method of
supplying combustion air to the unit.
CARE OF ALL PLATED AND ENAMELED PARTS
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean these parts. Buff
lightly with a clean dry cloth.
Prolonged high temperature burning with the door ajar may
cause a permanent rainbowing effect on the lower edge of
a gold plated door.
Porcelain enamel components must be handled with care.
The baked-on finish is "glass". If struck, it will chip. Touchup paint is available through your Napoleon dealer.
FIGURE 1
Be sure to provide sufficient combustion air. There are many
other appliances in your home competing for air such as: a
kitchen range hood, forced air heating devices or a bathroom exhaust fan.
Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue serving another appliance.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are normal and to be expected.
After extended periods of non-operation such as following
a vacation or a warm weather season, the fireplace may
emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is caused by dust
particles on the firebox burning off. Open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.
CALIFORNIA PROP 65 WARNING:
Use of this product may produce smoke which
contains chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm.
W415-0512 / C 10.02.06
CARE OF GLASS
If the glass is not kept clean permanent discolouration and
/ or blemishes may result. Normally a hot fire will clean the
glass. The most common reasons for dirty glass include;
not using sufficient fuel to get the stove thoroughly hot, using green or wet wood, closing the draft so far that there is
insufficient air for complete combustion. If it is necessary
to clean the glass, use a soft cloth with a nonabrasive
cleaner.
DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WHEN HOT!
The glass is very strong but do not let burning fuel rest
against it and always close the door gently. If the glass
should ever crack while the fire is burning, do not open the
door until the fire is out and do not operate the stove again
until the glass has been replaced with a new 5mm thick
plate of ceramic glass, available from your Napoleon / Wolf
Steel Ltd. dealer.
DO NOT SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS.
TO REMOVE THE GLASS: When the unit is cool, open the
door and remove the screws and brackets holding the
glass in place. Remove all broken glass. Wrap the edges
of the new glass with a U-shaped strip of fiberglass
gasket, covering 1/4" on each side. Place the glass with
the fiberglass gasket in position and replace the brackets
and screws. When finished, you should be able to move
the glass slightly, horizontally and vertically.
STOVE INSTALLATION
5
INSTALLING THE LEGS
To avoid being damaged during shipping, the stove has
been bolted to the pallet and must be unbolted before the
stove can be installed.
FIGURE 2A
1. Remove the 4 nuts and
washers from the underside of
the pallet.
2. Lift the stove up and away
from the pallet to clear the
threaded studs sticking
through the pallet. Place the
stove on its back onto a protective surface such as a carpet or blanket to avoid
scratches during leg installation.
FIGURE 2B
3. Remove the four additional nuts from each of the four
studs.
4. Use four of the nuts and washers removed above to
install the legs as illustrated in FIGURES 2a & 2b.
5. Lift the stove up and gently set down on all four legs. Do
not pivot unit up on its legs, as this could result in damage
to the legs.
ALCOVE INSTALLATION
Model 1100 only may be installed, using a listed double
wall connector, such as Security DL6 in Canada, the
Simpson Duravent Plus DVL in the USA or an equivalent
double wall connector, into an alcove having a depth of no
more than 4 feet and a height of at least 7 feet. The minimum clearances are as shown in FIGURE 3.

CHIMNEY CONNECTION
A 6” diameter single wall stove pipe, used to connect the
stove to the chimney, must be installed with the crimped
end toward the stove. This will ensure that the moisture
which condenses from the burning wood will flow back into
the fire chamber. Each joint in the stove pipe must be secured with at least three sheet metal screws.
This room heater must be connected to:
1) A chimney complying with the requirements for Type HT
chimneys in the Standard for Chimneys, Factory-Built, Residential Type and Building Heating Appliance UL 103, or
2) A code-approved masonry chimney with a flue liner.
Vent the stove into a masonry chimney or an approved,
insulated solid-fuel stainless-steel chimney with as short
and straight a length of six-inch (150mm) diameter smoke
pipe as possible. Connection to a masonry chimney must
be by a metal or masonry thimble cemented in place.
An insulated stainless steel chimney must be supported
at the ceiling or roof and its installation must comply with
its manufacturer's instructions.
W415-0512 /C 10.02.06

THE TOTAL HORIZONTAL VENT LENGTH
SHOULD NOT EXCEED 40% OF THE CHIMNEY
HEIGHT ABOVE THE STOVE.
All horizontal smoke pipe must slope slightly
upwards a minimum of 1/4" per foot (6mm/
0.3m) and all connections must be tight and
secured by three sheet metal screws equally
spaced.
An uninsulated smoke pipe shall not pass
through an attic, roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or through a floor, ceiling, wall or partition, or any combustible construction.
DO NOT USE ANY MAKESHIFT MATERIALS DURING INSTALLATION.
1. Move the stove into position with the flue centered, midpoint between two joists to prevent having to cut them. Use
a plumb bob to line up the centre.
2. Cut and frame an opening in the roof to provide a 2"
clearance between the outside of the chimney and any
combustible material.
DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF
MATERIAL.
Nail headers between the joist for extra support. Firestop
spacers must be placed on the bottom of each framed
opening in any floor or ceiling that the chimney passes
through.
3. Hold a plumb bob from the underside of the roof to
determine where the opening in the roof should be. Cut
and frame the roof opening to maintain proper 2" clearances.
