GAS INSTALLATION

Proceed once the vent installation is complete.

NOTE: All gas connections must be contained within the fire- place when complete.

1.Move the fi replace into position and secure to the fl oor through the 1/4" holes located at either side of the base.

2.The fi replace is designed to accept 3/8" gas supply line. The

fireplace is equipped with a 3/8" manual shut-off valve.

3.Connect the gas supply in accordance to local codes. In the absence thereof, install according to the National Installation Code.

4.When fl exing any gas line, support the gas valve so that the lines are not bent or kinked.

5.Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water solu-

tion.

DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME.

Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the stove removed. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before re- installing the door.

This appliance is certifi ed to be installed in an aftermarket perma- nently 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.

Conversion Kits

The mobile home appliance is fi eld convertible between Natural Gas (NG) and Propane (LP).

To convert from one gas to another consult your Napoleon dealer/

distributor.

FRAMING

Note: In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or vapour barrier coming in contact with the fi replace body, it is recom- mended that the walls of the fi replace enclosure be “fi nished” (ie: drywall/sheetrock), as you would fi nish any other outside wall of a home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.

It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned and the vent system is installed. Use 2x4's and frame to local building codes.

It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this fi replace system.

When roughing in the fi replace, raise the fi replace to accommodate for the thickness of the fi nished fl oor materials, i.e. tile, carpeting, hard wood, which if not planned for will interfere with the opening of the lower access door and the installation of many decorative fl ash- ing accessories.

Objects placed in front of the fi replace should be kept a minimum of 48" away from the front face.

Combustible materials may be installed fl ush with the front of the

fireplace but must not cover any of the black face areas of the fi re- place. Non-combustible material (brick, stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas.
