Napoleon Fireplaces GD70PT-S, GD70NT-S manual Venting, Care of GLASS, and Plated Parts

This fireplace may be installed in an aftermarket perma- nently located, manufactured (mobile) home, where not prohibited by local codes.

This fireplace is only for use with the type of gas indicated on the rating plate. This fireplace is not convertible for use with other gases, unless a certified 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 cool- ing down cycles are normal and are to be expected. Change in flame appearance from "HI" to "LO" is more evident in natural gas than in propane.

CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS

Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean plated parts. 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 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.

VENTING

VENTING LENGTHS & AIR TERMINAL LOCATIONS

Use only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent,Selkirk Direct Temp or American Metal Amerivent venting components. Minimum and maximum vent lengths, for both horizontal and vertical installations, and air terminal locations for ei- ther system are set out in this manual and must be ad- hered to. For Simpson Dura-Vent,Selkirk Direct Temp and American Metal Amerivent, follow the installation procedure provided with the venting components.

For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust flue, 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 fireplace flue collar which must be sealed using the black high tem- perature sealant Mill Pac. High temperature sealant must be ordered separately.

When using Napoleon venting components, use only ap- proved Wolf Steel Ltd. rigid / flexible vent components with the following termination kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD222, or 1/12 TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD110, 8/12 TO 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD111, FLAT ROOF TER- MINAL KIT GD112 or PERISCOPE KIT GD201 (for wall pen- etration below grade). With flexible 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 fireplace. FIG- URES 2, 3, & 5.

The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet. The maximum number of allowable 4" vent connections is three horizontally or vertically (excluding the fireplace and the air terminal connections) when using aluminum flex- ible venting.

For optimum flame appearance and fireplace 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.

When venting, the horizontal run must be kept to a mini- mum of 12 inches or a maximum of 20 feet. If a 20 foot horizontal run is required, the fireplace must have a minimum vertical rise immediately off the fireplace of

57inches. FIGURES 2a-c.When terminating vertically, the vertical rise is a minimum 34 inches and a maximum

40feet above the fireplace. FIGURE 3.

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 vent- ing as illustrated in Figures 2a, 2b, and 2c.

FIGURES 2a-c

FIGURE 3

For optimum performance, it is recommended that all

horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot. Wolf Steel rigid and flexible venting systems must not be combined.

Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp and American Metal Amerivent venting systems must not be combined.

Provide a means for visually checking the vent connec- tion to the fireplace after the fireplace is installed.

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 re- quired for safe operation.

Vent lengths that pass through unheated spaces (at- tics, garages, crawl space) should be wrapped with a protective insulation sleeve to minimize condensation. Use a firestop when penetrating interior walls, floor or ceiling.

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 enclo- sure be 'finished', (i.e. drywall/sheetrock) as would any other outside wall of the home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained within the cav- ity.

For safe and proper operation of the fireplace follow the venting instruction exactly.

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