W415-0663 / A / 01.07.08
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace follow the venting instruction exactly.
Deviation from the minimum or the maximum vertical vent length can create difficulty in burner start-up and/or
carboning.
Under extreme vent configurations, allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.
Vent lengths that pass through unheated spaces (attics, garages, crawl spaces) should be insulated with the insulation
wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize condensation.
Provide a means for visually checking the vent connection to the fireplace after the fireplace is installed.
Use a firestop, vent pipe shield or attic insulation shield when penetrating interior walls, floor or ceiling.
FOR SPECIFIC VENTING PARAMETERS, REFER TO
PAGES 9-12.
VENT INSTALLATIONS
With flexible venting, in conjunction with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot Vent Kit GD220 or the 10 foot Vent
Kit GD330.
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.

This application occurs when venting through an exterior
wall. Having determined the correct height for the air terminal
location, cut and frame a hole in the exterior wall 9 7/8" wide
by 11 3/8" high to accommodate the firestop assembly. Dry
fit the firestop assembly before proceeding to ensure the
brackets on the rear surface fit to the inside surface of the
horizontal framing.
As an alternative to framing, the vent pipe can be enclosed
in the wall using Napoleon® vent sleeve VS47KT.
NOTE: THE FIRESTOP ASSEMBLY MUST BE
INSTALLED WITH THE VENT SHIELD TO THE TOP.
The length of the vent shield may be cut shorter for
combustible walls that are less than 8 1/2" thick but the vent
shield must extend the full depth of the combustible wall.
1. Apply a bead of caulking (not supplied) around the corner
edge of the inside surface of the firestop assembly, fit the
firestop assembly to the hole and secure using the 4 screws
(W570-0026) supplied in your manual baggie.
2. Once the vent pipe is installed in its final position, apply
high temperature sealant W573-0002 (not supplied) between
the pipe and the firestop.

W415-0663 / A / 01.07.08
This application occurs when venting through a roof. 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, cut and frame a 9½" square opening in the ceiling
and the roof to provide the minimum clearance between the vent pipe and any combustible
material. Try to center the vent pipe location midway between two joists 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. Nail headers
between the joist for extra support.
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.
A firestop must be placed on the bottom of each framed opening
in a roof or ceiling that the venting system passes through. 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 fireplace. 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 assembly.
3. In the attic, 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.

USING FLEXIBLE VENT COMPONENTS
Use only approved flex vent pipe kits marked:
“Wolf Steel Approved Venting” as
identified by the stamp only on the
7” flex vent pipe.
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace, follow the
venting instructions exactly.
All 4" flex vent pipe and 7" flex vent pipe joints may be
sealed using high temperature sealant W573-0002 (not
supplied) or the high temperature sealant W573-0002
Mill Pac (not supplied). However, the high temperature
sealant W573-0007 Mill Pac (not supplied) must be used
on the joint connecting the 4" flex vent and the exhaust
flue collar.

FIGURE 21
Six inches (6”) is the minimum bend radius allowed for the
7” flex vent pipe.
For optimum performance it is recommended that all horizontal
runs have a minimum 1” rise per foot using flexible venting.
Do not allow the 4" flex vent pipe to
bunch up on horizontal or vertical
runs and elbows. Keep it pulled
tight. A 1 1/4” air gap between the 4"
and 7" flex vent pipes all around is
required for safe operation. A spacer
is required at the start, middle and
end of each elbow to ensure this gap
is maintained. Spacers are attached
to the 4" flex vent pipe at
predetermined intervals to maintain a
1-1/4” air gap to the 7" flex vent pipe.
These spacers must not be removed.

1. Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws provided. The roof support is optional. In this case the venting is to
be adequately supported using either an alternate method suitable to the authority having
jurisdiction or the optional roof support. Figure 24.
2. Stretch the 4" flex vent pipe to the required length. Slip the 4" flex vent pipe a minimum
of 2” over the inner sleeve of the air terminal connector and secure with 3 #8 screws. Seal
using a heavy bead of high temperature sealant W573-0007 (not supplied). Figure 25.
NOTE: If using pipe clamps to connect vent components, 3 screws must also
be used to ensure the connection cannot slip off.
3. Repeat using the 7" flex vent pipe, using a heavy bead of high temperature sealant
W573-0002 (not supplied). Figure 25.
4. Thread the air terminal connector / vent pipe assembly down through the roof. The air terminal must be located vertically
and plumb. Attach the air terminal connector to the roof support, ensuring that the top of the air
terminal is 16” above the highest point that it penetrates the roof. Figure 26. DO NOT CLAMP
THE FLEX VENT PIPE.
5. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides of the chimney. Place the flashing
over the air terminal connector leaving a min. 3/4” of the air terminal connector showing above
the top of the flashing. Slide the flashing underneath the sides and upper edge of the shingles.
Ensure that the air terminal connector is properly centred within the flashing, giving a 3/4”
margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do not nail through the lower portion of the flashing.
Make weather-tight by sealing with caulking. Where possible, cover the sides and top edges
of the flashing with roofing material. Figure 26.
6. Aligning the seams of the terminal and air terminal connector, place the terminal over the
air terminal connector making sure the vent pipe goes into the hole in the terminal. Secure
with the three screws provided. Figure 26.

RESTRICTING VERTICAL VENTS
FIGURES 32a-b
Remove the screws securing the restrictor plate and
rotate the plate 180°. Secure using the same two screws
through the existing holes.
Vertical terminations running longer than 15 feet may display a very active flame. If this appearance is not desirable, the
vent exit must be restricted using the restrictor plate. This reduces the velocity of the exhaust gases, slowing down the flame
pattern and creating a more traditional appearance.
Note: Some vent configurations may cause excessive air flow around the pilot flame and contribute to pilot outage. In this
case the restrictor plate can be installed over the flue opening to stabilize the pilot flame.

GD34-1 FRAMING
It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned and the
vent system is installed. Frame to local building codes. The
steel header supplied with the GD34-1 MUST be used
when framing the GD34-1.
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.
To install the fireplace face flush with the finished wall, position
the framework to accomodate the thickness of the finished
wall. It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this
fireplace system.
When roughing in the fireplace, raise the fireplace to
accommodate for the thickness of the finished floor 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 flashing accessories.
