This fi replace may be installed in an aftermarket permanently
located, manufactured (mobile) home, where not prohibited
by local codes.
This fi replace is only for use with the type of gas indicated
on the rating plate. This fi replace is not convertible for use
with other gases, unless a certifi ed 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.
This fi replace is approved for bathroom, bedroom and bedsitting room installations and is suitable for mobile home
installation. The natural gas model can only be installed in a
mobile home that is permanently positioned on it’s site
VENTING
Note: If for any reason the vent air intake system is
disassembled; reinstall per the instructions provided for
the initial installation.
VENTING LENGTHS & AIR TERMINAL
LOCATIONS
For safe and proper operation of the fi replace follow the
venting instruction 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.
Use only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp
or American Metal Amerivent venting components.
Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp and
American Metal Amerivent venting systems must not be
combined.
Follow the installation procedure provided with the venting
components.
For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust fl ue,
only the outer air intake joints must be sealed using a red high
temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant maybe 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 fi replace fl ue collar which must
be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac.
A starter adaptor must be used and may be purchased from
the corresponding supplier:

When using Napoleon® venting components, use only
approved Wolf Steel Ltd. rigid / fl exible vent components with
the following termination kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT 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 fl exible venting, in conjunction
with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot vent kit
GD220 or the 10 foot vent kit GD330. These vent kits allow
for either horizontal or vertical venting of the fi replace.
and fueled with natural gas.
The inner stainless steel looking fi rebox back will discolour
with heat, turning a light brown, straw like colour that is to be
considered normal.
CARE OF GLASS
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean glass. Buff lightly with
a clean dry cloth. The glass is 3/16” ceramic 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. Decorative panel may discolour after time.
The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet
using fl exible venting. The maximum number of allowable
4” 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.
Horizontal runs may have a 0 inch rise per foot in all cases
using SIMPSON DURA-VENT or NAPOLEON® RIGID OR
FLEXIBLE venting components when venting as illustrated
in Figures 2a, 2b, and 2c.
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 fi replace must have a minimum vertical rise
immediately off the fi replace of 57 inches. (Fig. 2a-c) When
terminating vertically, the vertical rise is a minimum 34 inches
and a maximum 40 feet above the fi replace. (Fig. 3)
FIGURES 2A-C
16"
24"
8"
FIGURE 3
For optimum performance, it is recommended that all
horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot.
Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal or
vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled tight. A 1¼” 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.

INSTALLATION
WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION
For optimum performance it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch 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 combustibles of 2" must be maintained during the fi rst 24” of venting
when penetrating combustible walls. The fi restop spacer (W500-0292) supplied with the unit should be used to
maintain this clearance. The fi rst two feet of outer 7” diameter vent pipe, from the appliance must be wrapped in the
1 inch thick insulation sleeve (supplied) as well as having a 1 inch air gap. Thereafter a 1” clearance to combustibles
may be maintained using fi restop spacer (W615-0044 for use with fl exible venting or rigid venting.)
VERTICAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs
when venting through
FIGURE 13
11
and the roof to provide the minimum clearance between the
fi replace pipe / liner and any combustible material. Try to
center the exhaust pipe location midway between two joist
to prevent having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to line up the
center of the openings.
DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL.
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 / 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.

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs when venting through an exterior
wall within 24” of the fi replace collars. Having determined the
air terminal location, cut and frame a hole in an exterior wall
with a minimum rectangle opening of 11 1/2” x 11 1/2”.
IMPORTANT: For optimum performance, The stove pipe
should rise ¼” per foot of run.
1. Assemble the shield to the spacer as shown, using the
3 shorter screws supplied.
The shield is meant to protect combustible materials within
the wall. If the shield is deeper than the combustible portion
of the wall, cut to fi t.
2. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place the fi restop
spacer over the framework to restrict cold air from being drawn
into the room or around the stove. Ensure that both spacer
and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles.
Secure the spacer in place using the 4 longer screws supplied. Once the vent pipe is installed in its fi nal position, apply
sealant between the pipe and the fi restop spacer.
