CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS
NAPOLEON warrants its products against manufacturing defects to the original purchaser only -- i.e., the individual or legal entity (registered customer) whose name appears on the warranty registration card filed with NAPOLEON -- provided that the purchase was made through an authorized NAPOLEON dealer and is subject to the following conditions and limitations:

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.
Do not use makeshift compromises during installation. Do not block or restrict air, grille or louvre openings! Do not add a hood.
Burning your unit with door open or ajar creates a fire hazard that may result in a house and/or chimney fire.
All venting connections must be in compliance with the chimney manufacturers installation instructions.
Clearances referred to throughout this manual are the minimum requirements.
Your Napoleon fireplace must be installed in accordance with all national and local building code standards and the standard of Chimney and Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances NFPA #211. Consult the authority having jurisdiction (such as municipal building department, fire department, fire prevention bureau, etc.) to determine the need to obtain a permit. If you are in doubt about the proper installation for your situation, contact your dealer or local building or fire official. The manufacturer does not guarantee that this fireplace and its options will completely heat your entire home.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are normal and to be expected.
It is recommended that in all cases, the fireplace be secured to the floor. Use the pallet packing brackets to accomplish this.
CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS
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 non-abrasive cleaner.
Do not clean the glass when hot!
The glass is very strong but do not let burning fuel rest or fall against it and always close the door gently. Never force it shut!
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 piece of ceramic glass, available from your Napoleon / Wolf Steel Ltd. dealer. Do not substitute materials.
For information on glass removal and replacement, see Maintenance.
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean plated parts. Buff lightly with a clean dry cloth.

HI-EFFICIENCY HEATING
A HOT AIR GRAVITY VENT SYSTEM (NZ221) may be
used to distribute heat to an adjoining room (located either above, or beside the room containing the fireplace) by way of vents. Air flow through this vent must be experimented with and the dampers of the grill adjusted manually to suit your requirements. This may take a few attempts; thereafter adjustments should no longer be required as is normally experienced with your central heating system registers.
The hot air vent must be installed in an upward direction! NEVER install in a downward direction. The hot air gravity vent system is not to be connected to a central heating system.
No more than two hot air gravity vents may be connected to the fireplace. Individual vent runs are not to exceed 10 feet.
All hot air gravity vents must be insulated.

LOCATION AND CLEARANCES
The fireplace is shipped with a set-up face that is 1/8" larger on the top, bottom and each side than the faceplate. Leave the set-up face in place to act as a template when installing the finishing face.
Do not build shelves or cupboards into the area above the fireplace.
Note: In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or vapour barrier coming in contact with the fireplace body, it is recommended that the walls of the fireplace enclosure be “finished” (ie: drywall/sheetrock), as you would finish any other outside wall of a home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.
Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a minimum of 48" away from the front face of the unit.
IMPORTANT
This unit, fully dressed, weighs 850 lbs (385.6kg)
Ensure there is adequate floor support for the unit, chimney and facing material. Some material could weigh thousands of pounds.

We recommend that the fireplace be secured to the floor in all cases.
Using the door opening as a datum, level the fireplaceby shimming underneath the fireplace.
Remove and discard the lifting handles. Bend the tabs down and secure the unit to the floor.
The fireplace enclosure must be provided with sufficient air circulation to avoid a fire hazard. Install ventilation grilles (minimum openings of 40 sq. inches) at both floor and ceiling levels of the enclosure. These grilles must not restrict the flow of heat by more than 25%.
Do not install into any area having a height less than 7 feet (ceiling of enclosure to fireplace bottom, excluding hearth height).
The location of windows, doors and the traffic flow in the room where the stove is to be located should be considered. If possible, you should choose a location where the chimney will pass through the house without cutting a floor or roof joist.

WHEN USING A SOLID PACK CHIMNEY
The fireplace face and enclosure ceiling must be framed using 2x4 metal studs.
The minimum enclosure ceiling height is 7 feet. N o n - c o m b u s t i b l e materials (cement board and metal studs) must be used.

OUTSIDE COMBUSTION AIR
Note: Incorporate a vertical loop or trap into air liners to reduce air flow when
unit is not in use.
Insulating the intake liners is recommended
in colder
climates to prevent condensation from occuring.
The Napoleon
Model NZ6000 takes outside air directly into the fireplace
through the openings in the left and right hand sides.
Decide on the most convenient location for the fresh air inlet ducts and
hoods which may be installed above or below floor level.
The fresh air inlet ducts and hoods must be installed.
Secure and seal the intake liners to the collars using 3 sheet metal screws, and high temperature sealant.

Horizontal |
rise is |
run may be: |
between: |

6' & 10' max |

20' |
0' & 1' |
25' |
Included with the fireplace are:
- two 10' lengths of vent. Use a connector and seal if adding more length.
- two of intake hoods.
The vertical height of the air intake liner must not be greater than 2/3 the height of the chimney. If additional liner length is required, it may be doubled by increasing the size from 6" diameter to 8" diameter. Use a 6" to 8" increaser at the hood and a decreaser at the fireplace. Values in brackets represent 8" diameter intake liners.
The duct terminations must be located so they can not be blocked (i.e. snowdrifts). 4' above grade is recommended.
Make a 6 ½" inch hole to suit in an outside wall of the house. From outside, place the fresh air hood into the hole, open side down. Seal with caulking and secure.
MANTLE CLEARANCES
An optional combustible mantle must be a minimum of 12" above the top of the faceplate and not to extend more than 2" from the surface. See chart below for further information.
