CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS

6

This fireplace may be installed in an aftermarket permanently 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 nosies during heating up and cooling 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.

For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp and American Metal Amerivent, follow the installation procedure provided with the venting components.

All outer pipe joints of these venting systems must be sealed using Red RTV Hight Temperature Sealant.

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

A starter adaptor must be used and may be purchased from the corresponding supplier:

When using Napoleon venting components, use only ap- proved Wolf Steel Ltd. rigid / flexible vent components with the following termination kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD422R, or 1/12 TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD410, 8/12 TO 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD411, FLAT ROOF TERMI- NAL KIT GD412 or PERISCOPE KIT GD401 (for wall pen- etration below grade). With flexible venting, in conjunction with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot vent kit GD420 or the 10 foot vent kit GD430. These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting of the fireplace.

The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet. The maximum number of allowable 5" vent connections is three horizontally or vertically (excluding the fireplace and the air terminal connections).

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 16 inches or a maximum of 20 feet. If a 20 foot horizontal run is required, the fireplace must have a mini- mum vertical rise immediately off the fireplace of 57 inches. FIGURES 2a-c. When terminating vertically, the vertical rise is a minimum 34 inches and a maximum 40 feet above the fireplace. FIGURE 3.

FIGURES 2A-C

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 venting as illustrated in Figures 2a, 2b, and 2c.

For optimum performance, it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot. 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 required for safe operation.

Vent lengths that pass through unheated spaces (attics, garages, crawl space) should be wrapped with a pro- tective insulation sleeve to minimize condensation.

Use a firestop when penetrating interior walls, floor or ceiling.

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.

If vertical rises greater than 57 inches are necessary, the increased rise must be deducted from the horizon- tal run.
