GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL INFORMATION

THIS GAS STOVE 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 specifics that apply to your area, for example: in Massachusetts State:

• The fireplace damper must be removed or welded in the open position prior to installation of a fireplace insert or gas log.

• The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.

• The flexible 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 fitter 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 NFP A 54 in the United S tates. Mobile home installation must conform with local codes or in the absence of local codes, install to the current standard for gas equipped mobile housing CAN/CSA Z240 MH Series in Canada or ANSI Z223.1and NFP A 54 in the United S tates.

Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the stove opened. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before closing the door.

Under extreme vent configurations, allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.

All horizontal runs must have a ¼ inch rise per foot.

Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a minimum of 48" away from the front face of the unit.

The stove 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 1/ 2 psig (3.5 kPa). The stove 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 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). A 1/8 inch NPT plug, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply connection to the stove. The stove, when installed with a blower, must be 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 70-1990 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States. The blower power cord must be connected into a properly grounded receptacle. The grounding prong must not be removed from the cord plug.

FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS STOVE 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. Manifold pressure under flow conditions is 3.5 inches water column for natural gas and 10 inches water column for propane. When the fireplace is installed at elevations above 4,500ft, and in the absense of specific recommendations from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certified high altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft. Change in flame appearance from "HI" to "LO" is more evident in natural gas than in propane. Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are normal and to be expected.

GDS50: Maximum input is 44,000 BTU/hr

for natural gas and 40,000 BTU/hr for propane. Maximum output for natural gas is 37,000 BTU/ hr at an efficiency of 84% with the fan on; Maximum output for propane is 34,400 BTU/hr at an efficiency of 86% with the fan on. Maximum A.F.U.E. (annual fuel utilization efficiency) rating is 77% for natural gas and 79% for propane. This stove is not approved for closet or recessed installations. It is approved for bathroom, bedroom and bed-sitting room installations and is suitable for mobile homes. The natural gas model is suitable for installation in a mobile home that is permanently positioned on its site and fueled with natural gas.

GS50: Maximum input is 44,000 BTU/hr for natural gas

and 40,000 BTU/hr for propane. Maximum output for natural gas is 31,200 BTU/hr at an efficiency of 77% with the fan on and 71% with the fan off; and 30,000 BTU/hr for propane at an efficiency of 78% with the fan on and 73% with the fan off. Minimum A.F.U.E. (annual fuel utilization efficiency) rating is 65% for natural gas and 67% for propane. This stove is approved for bedroom and bed-sitting room installations.

CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS

Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean these parts. Buff lightly with a clean dry cloth. The glass is 3/16" ceramic glass available from your Napoleon / Wolf Steel Lt d. dealer . DO NOT SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS. Clean the glass after the first 10 hours of operation with a recommended gas fireplace 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.

LOCATION & CLEARANCES

Provide adequate ventilation and combustion air.

Provide adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and operating the stove.

Never obstruct the front opening of the stove.

Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a minimum of 48" away from the front face of the unit.

GDS50 AND GS50

As long as clearance to combustibles is kept within the required distances, the most desirable and benefical location for a Napoleon stove is in the centre of a building, thereby allowing the most efficient use of the heat created. 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 vent will pass through the house without cutting a floor or roof joist.

DIRECT VENT SPECIFICS - MODEL GDS50

VENTING LENGTHS &

AIR TERMINAL LOCATIONS

Use only Napoleon or Simpson Dura-Vent Model DV-GS venting components. Minimum and maximum vent lengths, for both horizontal and vertical installations, and air terminal locations for either system are set out in this manual and must be adhered to. For Simpson Dura-Vent, follow the installation procedure provided with the venting components.

When using Napoleon venting components, use only the following vent kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD175 (7-1/2' of venting included), or 1/12 TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL

KIT GD110, 8/12 TO 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD111, FLAT ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD1 12 or ST OVE PERISCOPE KIT GD180 (for wall penetration below grade) in conjunc-

tion with the appropriate venting components. These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting of the stove. FIGURES 4, 5, & 6. The maxi- mum number of 4" flexible connections is two horizontally or three vertically (excluding the stove and the air terminal connections).

When terminating vertically, the minimum vertical rise is 34 inches above the stove and the maximum vertical rise is 40 feet. FIGURE 4.

Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length can create difficulty in burner start-up and/or carboning.

Use an adjustable pipe as the final length of rigid piping to the stove for ease of installation.

We recommend that exhaust vents that pass through unheated spaces be wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize condensation and reverse flow symptoms. See Trouble Shooting for details.

FIGURE 4

For optimum flame appearance and stove performance, keep the vent length and number of elbows to a minimum. On extreme vent configurations, allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after lighting. 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. The maximum horizontal run is 34 inches with a 90 located 29" above the stove. FIGURE 5.

The maximum horizontal run with a 57 inch vertical rise immediately above the stove is 20 feet FIGURES 6.

FIGS 6

HORIZONTAL RUN NOT TO EXCEED VERTICAL RISE

IF VERTICAL RISES GREATER THAN 57 INCHES ARE NECESSARY, THE INCREASED RISE MUST BE DEDUCTED FROM THE HORIZONTAL RUN.

FIGURE 5

A terminal shall not terminate directly above a sidewalk or paved driveway which is located betweeen two single family dwellings and serves both dwellings. Local codes or regulations may require different clearances.

Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal or vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled tight. a 1-1/4" air gap all around between the inner liner and outer stove pipe is required for safe operation. Use a firestop when penetrating interior walls, floor or ceiling.

Use the chart on this page to calculate horizontal runs for vertical rises between 29 and 57 inches. FIGURE 8.

When calculating maximum run lengths, include 10 feet for each 90° elbow or 5 feet for each 45° elbow. (DO NOT INCLUDE THE FIRST ELBOW DIRECTLY OFF THE UNIT.)

FIGURE 8

REQUIRED VERTICAL RISE FROM FIREPLACE TO FIRST ELBOW IN INCHES

CALCULA TED HORIZONT AL VENT RUN IN FEET

SPECIAL INSTALLATION EXAMPLE

When a horizontal run is introduced, even though the terminal may be vertical, the installation must be considered HORIZONT AL. A through the roof installation requires a total 5 foot rise. FIGURE 9. The location of the fireplace dictates a horizontal run of 5 feet. What is the required vertical rise to the centre of the initial 90° elbow?

The total run is: 5 ft. (through the roof vertical rise)

10 ft. (90° elbow) 5 ft. (horizontal run) 20 ft. (total run)

Using the chart, will determine that a 57 inch minimum vertical rise immediately off the unit is required for satisfactory venting conditions.

ALTHOUGH THE IMMEDIATE VERTICAL RUN MAY BE GREATER THAN 57 INCHES, THE MAXIMUM COMBINATION OF HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL RUNS, BEYOND THE 57 INCHES,

MUST NOT EXCEED 20 FEET.

OFFSET INSTALLATION EXAMPLE

FIGURE 10

If a first run of 72 inches is required, using the "First Vent Run" on the chart shows that a maximum second run of 48 inches is allowable.

IF NECESSARY, THE FIRST RUN AND THE SECOND RUN MAY BE REVERSED.

FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERA TION OF THE STOVE, FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTL Y .

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION VERTICAL INSTALLATION

This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall. FIGURES 5, 6, & 13. Having determined the air terminal location, cut and frame a hole in an exterior wall with a minimum square or round opening of 9". (As an alternative to framing, a vent pipe shield may be installed, ensuring a 1" clearance to combustibles. See

Figure 12.)

THE STOVE PIPE MUST RISE ¼" PER FOOT OF RUN.

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 finished wall) and secure the shield through the opening to the interior wall. The final location of the vent

pipe shield should maintain the required clearance to the 7" vent pipe. Do not fill this cavity with any type of material.

FIGURE 12

This application occurs when venting through a roof. FIGURE 4. Installation kits for various roof pitches are available from your Napoleon dealer. See Accessories to order the specific kit required.

1. Determine the air terminal location and move the stove into position. Cut and frame 9 inch openings in the ceiling and the roof to provide the minimum 1 inch clearance between the stove pipe 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 filling up the 1" air space around the pipe. FIGURE 16. Nail headers between the joist for extra support.

FIGURE 15

FIGURE 14

FIGURE 13

Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield 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. Once the vent pipe is installed in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe and the firestop 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 finished ceiling), and secure over the opening in the ceiling. FIGURE 15. A firestop must be placed on the bottom of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the venting system passes through. FIGURE 14. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield 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. Once the vent pipe is installed in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe and the firestop spacer.

3. In the attic, after the pipe 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 filling up the 1" air space around the pipe.

OPERATION / MAINTENANCE

Purge all gas lines with the glass door open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before closing the door. Allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.

MODEL GS50 ONLY

SPILL SWITCH

This is a thermally activated switch, attached to the back of the chimney adapter, which senses the change in temperature and shuts down the gas valve in the event of a severe downdraft of air or a blocked or disconnected vent. It acts as a safety shut-off to prevent a

build up of carbon monoxide or an explosion of unburnt gases during start up. If the flue is blocked or has no "draw", the spill switch will automatically shut off the supply of gas within about 5-10 minutes.

TAMPERING WITH THE SWITCH CAN RESULT IN CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) POISONING AND POSSIBLE DEATH.

VENTING ACTION CHECK: A CHECK FOR CORRECT VENTING ACTION MUST BE MADE BEFORE THE INSTALLED ST OVE IS LEFT WITH THE CUSTOMER. Test in the following manner:

1. Close all doors and windows in the room / start exhaust fans in the home / turn fireplace blower off (if equipped).

2. Set controls to "high" and light the unit.

3. Wait 5 minutes. Light a match and extend it 1" into the

hole located above the spill switch bracket on the adapter.

4. Venting action is satisfactory if the flame st ays lit. Venting action is unsatisfactory if the flame extinguishes.

5. If venting action is unsatisfactory, turn the unit of f, wait 10 minutes and try again. If the match does not stay lit, turn the unit off and check for vent blockage or restriction. If necessary, consult with a qualified inspector.

FIGURE 43

TURBO BURNER OPERATION

AND MAINTENANCE

The purpose of the turbo burner is to increase heat output or BTUs of the unit and will only operate when the main burner is functioning. To turn the turbo burner on, simply depress the burner control knob (located in the valve compartment at the left hand side below the piezo ignitor) and rotate the knob counter-clockwise to 'high'. The turbo burner flame can be observed on the reflective surface in the back right corner of the firebox. The burner flame height may now adjusted to achieve the heat output required. Because the flame is very efficient it will burn a very blue, almost transparent colour.

ALL MODELS

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

To turn off the burner, rotate the control knob clockwise to 'high'; depress the knob and turn to 'off'. The on-off switch is located on the back of the unit at the top left corner on models GDS50 and GS50.

When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condition caused by the curing of the logs and the "burn-in" of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again. Simply open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room. 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 in the heat exchanger burning off. Open a window to sufficiently ventilate the room.

PURGE THE GAS LINE WITH THE GLASS DOOR OPEN.

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE LIGHTING:

A. This fireplace is equipped with a pilot which must be lit

by hand while following these instructions exactly.

B. Before operating smell all around the fireplace area for

gas and next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.

C. Use only your hand to turn the gas control knob. Never

use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.

D. Do not use this fireplace if any part has been under

MAINTENANCE

TURN OFF THE GAS AND UNPLUG ELECTRI-

CAL POWER BEFORE SERVICING THE

STOVE!

CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing. This insert and its venting system should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. The fireplace area must be kept clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapours and liquids. The flow of combustion and ventilation air must not be obstructed.

1. In order to properly clean the burner and pilot assem-

bly, remove the logs exposing both assemblies.

2. Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air shutter opening and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing, at least once a year.

3. Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean

2.Push in gas control knob slightly and turn clock-

wise to off. DO NOT FORCE.

out any of the ports which may not be burning or are not burning properly.

4. Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf the thermocouple on one leg and reaches toward the burner on the other leg.

5. Replace the cleaned logs.

6. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely

on all openings when the gas knob for the burner is turned on. A 5-10 second total light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your Napoleon dealer/distributor.

7. Check that the door gasketing is not broken or missing. Replace if necessary.

8. Lift the door from its hinges to clean hinge pins and lubricate using high-temp dry graphite as necessary. Replace. NOTE: Due to the high temperatures that the hinges experience, wet lubricants such as oil and WD40 will cause the hinge to seize and are therefore not suitable.

1. Turn off the electrical power and the gas supply to the stove.

2. Open the lower louvre control door, the two side doors, and the fire viewing door. Remove the logs.

3. Remove the relief door held on with 6 screws. Discard the gasket.

4. Disconnect the two blower wires. Remove the blower bracket held on with 4 screws.

5. Replace the blower using the existing bracket. When connecting the replacement blower, tighten the screws without distorting the rubber grommets. Replace the bracket/ blower assembly on the unit.

6. Reconnect the two wires. Hold the replacement gasket in place and reattach the relief door body. Replace the logs. Close all doors.

7. Turn the gas supply and electricity back on.

VARIABLE SPEED SWITCH

Because the blower is thermally activated, when turned on, it will automatically start approximately 15-30 minutes after lighting the stove and will run for approximately 30-45 minutes after the stove has been turned off. Use of the fan increases the output of heat.

Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bearings causing irreparable damage and must be prevented from coming into contact with the blower or its compartment. Any damage resulting from this condition is not covered by the warranty policy .
