FORYOUR SATISFACTION, THISFIREPLACEHASBEEN
TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUAL-
ITY! Maximum input is 45,000 BTU/hr for natural gas and
40,000BTU/hr for propane. When the fireplace is installed
at elevations above 4,500ft, and in the absence of specific
recommendations from the local authority having jurisdic-
tion, the certified high altitude input rating shall be reduced
at the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft. Maximum out-
put for natural gas is 36,900 BTU/hr at an efficiency of 82%

• Under extreme vent configurations, allow several min-
utes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.
• Eight (8") inches is the minimum bend radius allowed for
the 7" diameter flexible air liner.
Whenterminatingvertically,the
vertical rise is a minimum 36
inches and a maximum 40 feet
above the fireplace.
Do not radius vertical vent
rises.
When venting, the immediate horizontal run must be kept
to a minimum of 10 inches or a maximum of 3 feet.
Minimum clearance to combustible construc-
tion from fireplace and vent surfaces:
sides, back, bottom, and top 0 inches
vent pipe 1 inch
recessed depth 22 inches
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 termi-
nal locations for either system are set out in this manual
and must be adhered to.
When using Napoleon venting components, use only the
following vent kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD-222R, or 1/12
TO 7/12 PITCH ROOFTERMINAL KITGD-110, 8/12 TO 12/
12 ROOF TERMINALKIT GD-111, FLAT ROOF TERMINAL
KIT GD-112 or PERISCOPE KIT GD-201 (for wall penetra-
tion below grade) in conjunction with the various termina-
tions, use either the 5 foot vent kit GD-220 or the 10 foot
vent kit GD-330 For Simpson Dura-Vent, follow the installa-
tion procedure provided with the venting components.
These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting
of the fireplace. The maximum number of 4" flexible con-
nections is four (excluding the fireplace and the air termi-
nal 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.
• All horizontal runs must have a 1 inch rise per foot in all
cases using Napoleon flexible venting components.
• Horizontal runs can have a 0 inch rise per foot using
Simpson Dura-Vent or Napoleon rigid venting components.
For optimum performance, it is recommended that all hori-
zontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot using
rigid venting.
• 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.
• 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.
• Vent lengths that pass through unheated spaces (attics,
garages, crawl space) should be insulated with the insu-
lation wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize conden-
sation.
• Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace
open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner
before closing the door.

This application occurs when vent-
ing through an exterior wall.
Having determined the air termi-
nal location, cut and frame a hole
in an exterior wall with a minimum
square or round opening of 9".
(Asanalternativetoframing,avent
pipe shield may be installed, en-
suring a 1" clearance to
combustibles.)
1. Mark and cut the vent pipe
shield to the determined depth of the
combustible wall. Apply a bead of caulk-
ing (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 re-
quired clearance to the 7" vent pipe. Do not fill this cavity
withanytypeofmaterial. Applyabeadofcaulkingallaround
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.
This application occurs when venting through a roof. In-
stallation kits for various roof pitches are available from
your Napoleon dealer. See Accessories to order the spe-
cific kit required.
1. Determine the air ter-
minal location and
move the stove into po-
sition. 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 centre the ex-
haust pipe location
midway between two
joist to prevent hav-
ing to cut them. Use
a plumb bob to line
up the centre of the
openings.
DONOTFILLTHIS SPACEWITHANYTYPEOFMATERIAL.
A vent pipe shield will prevent any materials such as insu-
lation, 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 frame-
work or to the Wolf Steel vent pipe shield plate or equiva-
lent (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 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 insu-
lation, from filling up the 1" air
space around the pipe.

6. If more than one length of liner needs to be used to
reach the fireplace, couple them together as illustrated.
Seal the joints using the same procedure as described in
points 2 and 3. The vent system must be supported every 3
feet, for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use Napoleon
support W010-0370 or equivalent noncombustible strap-
ping to maintain the 1" clearance from combustibles as
well as to prevent sagging.
1. Fasten the roof support
to the roof using the screws
provided. The roof support is
optional. The venting is to be
adequately supported using
either an alternate method
suitable to the authority hav-
ing jurisdiction or the optional
roof support.
2. Stretch the 4" diameter aluminium flexible liner to the
required length. Slip the liner a minimum of 2" over the
inner sleeve of the air terminal and secure with 3 #8 screws.
Seal using a heavy bead of the high temperature sealant.
3. Repeat using the 7" diam-
eter aluminium flexible liner.
4. Thread the air terminal pipe
assembly down through the roof.
The air terminal must be located
vertically and plumb. Attach the
air terminal assembly to the roof
support, ensuring that a
minimum 16" of air terminal will
penetrate the roof when
fastened.

5. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the
sides of the chimney. Place the flashing over the air termi-
nal and slide it underneath the sides and upper edge of
the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal is properly cen-
tred 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.
Use only approved aluminum flexible liner kits marked:
"Wolf Steel Approved Venting" as
identified by the stamp only on the 7”
outer liner.
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace, follow
the venting instructions exactly.
* The vent system must be supported every 3 feet, for
both vertical and horizontal runs. Use Wolf Steel support
W010-0370 or equivalent non-combustible strapping to
maintain the 1" clearance from combustibles as well as to
prevent sagging.
1. Stretch the 4" diameter aluminium flexible liner to the
required length taking into account the additional length
needed for the finished wall surface. Apply a heavy bead of
the high temperature sealant, supplied with the unit, to the
inside of the 4" liner approximately 1" from the end. Slip the
liner a minimum of 2" over the fireplace vent collar and
secure with 3 #8 screws.
2. Using the 7" diameter flexible aluminium liner, apply
sealant, slide a minimum of 2 " over the fireplace combus-
tion air collar and secure with 3 #8 screws.
3. Insert the liners through the firestop. Position and
secure the fireplace using the nailing tabs (2 per side)
and/or secure to the floor using #10 hex head screws (not
supplied). The liners should be flush with the exterior wall.
The air terminal may be recessed into the exterior wall
or siding by ½", the depth of the return flange.
4. From outside, apply a bead of the high temperature
sealant to the inside of both liners, approximately 1" from
the end of each liner.
5. Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright, read-
able position), insert into both liners with a twisting motion
to ensure that both the terminal sleeves engage into the
liners / sealant. Secure the terminal to the exterior wall and
make weather tight by sealing with caulking (not supplied).

Where possible, cover the sides and top edges of the flash-
ing with roofing material.
6. Apply a heavy bead of
weatherproof caulking
2 inches above the flashing.
Slide the storm collar around
the air terminal and down to
the caulking. Tighten to en-
sure that a weather-tight seal
between the air terminal and
the collar is achieved.
Attach the other storm collar centred between the air intake
and the air exhaust slots onto the air terminal. Tighten
securely. Attach the vertical rain cap.
Spacers are attached to the 4" inner flex liner at prede-
termined intervals to maintain a 1-1/4" air gap to the 7"
outer liner. These spacers must not be removed.
7. If more liner needs to be used to reach the fireplace,
follow the same procedure as found in HORIZONTAL AIR
TERMINAL INSTALLATION. The vent system must be sup-
ported approximately every 3 feet for both vertical and hori-
zontal runs. Use Wolf Steel support ring assembly
W010-0370 or equivalent noncombustible strapping to
maintain the minimum 1" clearance to combustibles as
well as to prevent sagging.
Vertical installations running longer than 10 feet may dis-
play a very active flame. If this appearance is not desirable,
remove the brick baffle from the firebox, exposing the flue
gas outlet openings. Bend the restrictor plates up (from
their normal opening of 45°) into the flue openings. Re-
place the brick baffle. This reduces the velocity of the ex-
haust gases, slowing down the flame pattern and creating
a more traditional gentle appearance. Specific instructions
are shown in "Trouble Shooting".
1. Install the 4 inch diameter aluminium flexible liner to
the fireplace. Secure with 3 screws and flat washers. Seal
the joint and screw holes using the high temperature seal-
ant provided.
2. Install the 7 inch diameter aluminium flexible liner to
the fireplace. Attach and seal the joints.

FIGURE22
The vent system must be supported approximately every 3
feet for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use Wolf Steel
vent spacers W615-0033 every 3 feet and either side of
each elbow to maintain the minimum 1¼" clearance be-
tween the outer and inner vent pipes. Use Wolf Steel sup-
port ring assembly W010-0370 or equivalent noncombus-
tible strapping to maintain the minimum 1" clearance to
combustibles for both vertical and horizontal runs.
1. Movethefireplaceinto position. Measure the vent length
required between terminal and fireplace taking into account
the additional length needed for the finished wall surface
and any 1¼" overlaps between venting components.
2. Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of
the 4" inner collar of the fireplace. Attach the first vent
component and secure using 3 self tapping screws. Re-
peat using 7" piping.
3. Holding the air terminal (lettering in an upright, read-
able position), insert into both vent pipes with a twisting
motion to ensure that both the terminal sleeves engage into
the vent pipes and sealant. Secure the terminal to the exte-
rior wall and make weather tight by sealing with caulking
(not supplied).
The air terminal may be recessed into the exterior
wall or siding by 1½", the depth of the return flange.
1. Attach 4" and 7" elbows to the stove. Apply high tem-
perature sealant and secure the joints with 3 screws.
2. Move the fireplace into position.
3. Fasten the roof support to the roof using the screws
provided. The roof support is optional. The venting is to be
adequately supported using either an alternate method
suitable to the authority having jurisdiction or the optional
roof support.
4. Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of
the inner sleeve of the air terminal. Slip a 4" diameter cou-
pler over the sleeve and secure using 3 screws.
5.Apply high temperature sealant to the outer edge of
the outside sleeve of the air terminal. Slip a 7" diameter
coupler over the sleeve and secure as before. Trim the 7"
coupler even with the 4" coupler end.
6. Thread the air terminal pipe
assembly down through the roof
support and attach, ensuring that
a minimum 16" of air terminal will
penetrate the roof when fas-
tened. If the attic space is tight,
we recommend threading the
Wolf Steel vent pipe collar or
equivalent loosely onto the air
terminal assembly as it is
passed through the attic. Theair
terminal must be located
vertically and plumb.
7. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the
sides of the chimney. Place the flashing over the air termi-
nal and slide it underneath the sides and upper edge of
the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal is properly cen-
tred 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 flash-
ing with roofing material.
8. Apply a heavy bead of waterproof caulking 2 inches
above the flashing. Slide the storm collar around the air
terminal and down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure that a
weather-tight seal between the air terminal and the collar
is achieved. Attach the other storm collar centred between
the air intake and air exhaust slots onto the air terminal.
Tighten securely. Attach the rain cap.
9. Continue adding rigid venting sections, sealing and
securing as above. Attach a 4" collapsed telescopic pipe to
the last section of rigid piping. Secure with screws and
seal. Repeat using a 7" telescopic pipe.
10. Run a bead of high temperature sealant around the
outside of the 4" elbow. Pull the adjustable pipe a mini-
mum 2" onto the elbow. Secure with 3 screws. Repeat with
the 7" telescopic pipe.
11. 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.

Combustible materials may be installed flush with the front
of the fireplace but must not cover any of the black face-
areas of the fireplace. Noncombustible material (brick,
stone or ceramic tile) may protrude in these areas.
It is not necessary to install a hearth extension with this
fireplace system.
When roughing in the fireplace, raise the fireplace to ac-
commodate for the thickness of the finished floor materi-
als, 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 accesso-
ries.
Objects placed in front of the fireplace should be kept a
minimum of 48" away from the front face.
Combustible mantle clearance
can vary according to the man-
tle depth. Use the graph to help
evaluate the clearance needed.
The U-channel may be removed if framing is faced with a
noncombustible material (cement board) (not supplied).
These same mantle clearance requirements apply to
any combustibles protruding on either side of the
fireplace.
The fireplace is equipped with two 1/4" diameter holes
located in the front left and right corners of the base. For
mobile home installations, the fireplace must be fastened
in place. Use #10 screws, inserted through the holes in
the base to secure. It is recommended that the fireplace
be secured in all installations.
In Canada, mobile home installation may be vented hori-
zontally or vertically. In the United States, it may only be
installed vertically. See "Vertical Venting" or "Horizontal Air
Terminal Installation" for installation.
Proceed once the vent installation is complete.
Move the fireplace into position and secure using the nail-
ing tabs (2 per side) and/or secure to the floor using #10
screws (not supplied).
It is best to frame your fireplace after it is positioned and the
vent system is installed. Use 2x4's and frame to local build-
ing codes. To install the fireplace face flush with the fin-
ished wall, position the framework to accommodate the
thickness of the finished wall. Pull out the four nailing tabs,
attached on either side of the fireplace and secure to the 2x4
framing to facilitate drywall installation. FIGURE24

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.

1. Route a 3/8" N.P.T. black iron gas line, 1/2" type-L
copper tubing or equivalent to the fireplace.
2. For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall
switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a conven-
ient location. Route double strand solid core millivolt wire
through the electrical hole located at the bottom left side of
the unit. The recommended maximum lead length de-
pends on wire size:
WIRESIZE MAX.LENGTH
14 gauge 100 feet
16 gauge 60 feet

1. Remove the two brick retainers located on either of the
firebox sides as illustrated.
2. Remove the protective plastic wrap from all four pan-
els. Centre the rear brick panel against the back of the
firebox.
3. Tilt and insert the left brick panel against the left side
of the firebox, ensuring that it butts up to the rear panel.
Excess material may be trimmed with a utility knife. Secure
in place using a retainer bracket and 2 of the screws. Re-
peat for the right side.
4. Slide the upper brick baffle into place over the side
brick panels.
When shipped, the brick panels range in colour from
white to varying shades of brown. During initial use,
the panels will darken temporarily and emit a slight
odour for a few hours. This is a normal condition that
will not occur again. Simply open a window to suffi-
ciently ventilate the room. The appearance of the pan-
els will permanently lighten in colour with use.

The three slots on the
blower mounting
bracket allow ease of
adjustment when
attaching the blower.
For a quiet running
blower, do not allow the
assembly to sit on the
firebox base.
Slide the vibration reducing pad
(A) into theclip (C) and up against
the threaded stud (B) at the other

be positioned entirely onto the
pad.
Tilt the blower onto its
side. Slide it past the
controls and into the
clip (C). Secure to the
threaded stud using
the lock washer and
wing nut provided. En-
sure that the blower
does not touch the fire-
place base or the fire-
box.
Attach the connectors from the black and white wires to the
thermodisc and secure the thermodisc bracket to the se-
curing stud at the bottom left of the unit using a lock washer
and wing nut. Ensure that the thermodisc touches the fire-
box wall.
Attach the connectors from the black and red wires to the
blower.
Attach and secure the variable speed switch using the nut
provided. Plug the harness cord into the receptacle.
The wire harness provided in this kit is a universal
harness. When installed, ensure that any excess
wire is contained, preventing it from making con-
tact with moving or hot objects.
Because the blower is thermally activated, when
turned on, it will automatically start approximately
10 minutes after lighting the fireplace and will run
for approximately 30-45 minutes after the fireplace
has been turned off. Use of the fan increases the
output of heat.
Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bear-
ings causing irreparable damage and must be pre-
vented from coming into contact with the blower
or its compartment. Any damage resulting from
this condition is not covered by the warranty
policy.

This optional kit is meant to be used only in conjunction
with the GD65 Fan Kit, shown above, which may be or-
dered from your Wolf Steel / Napoleon dealer.
With the thermostatic sensor option, the fan, when turned
on, becomes thermally activated, and will automatically
run approximately 15-30 minutes after the fireplace has
been lit and for approximately 30-45 minutes after the fire-
place has been turned off.
If the fireplace was not previously equipped with a fan:
route a grounded 2-wire, 60hz power cable to the junction
box. At this point, it must be strain relieved and insulated.
The wire harness provided in this kit is a universal har-
ness. When installed, ensure that any excess wire is con-
tained, preventing it from making contact with moving or
hot objects.
To ease installation of the fan, remove the hinge screen
and valve control door (lower louvres) from the base of the

partment.
GAS KNOB
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 at-
tempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.
D. Do not use this fireplace if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect
the fireplace and replace any part of the control system
and any gas control which has been under water.
WARNING: The gas valve has an interlock device which
will not allow the pilot burner to be lit until the thermocou-
ple has cooled. Allow approximately 60 seconds for the
thermocouple to cool.
Whenlightingandrelighting,the gas knob cannot be turned
from pilot to off unless the knob is depressed slightly.
1. Stop! Read the above safety information on this label.
2. Turn off all electric power to the fireplace.
3. Turn the gas knob clockwise to off.
4. Wait five (5) minutes to clear out any gas. If you smell
gas including near the floor. Stop! Follow "B" in the above
safety information on this label. If you don't smell gas go
the next step.
5. Turn gas knob counter-clockwise to pilot.
6. Depress slightly and hold gas knob while lighting the
pilot with the push button igniter. Keep knob depressed
for one minute, then release. If pilot does not continue to
burn, repeat steps 3 through 5.
7. With pilot lit, depress and turn gas knob counter-clock-
wise to on.
8. If equipped with remote on-off switch/thermostat, main
burner may not come on when you turn valve to on.
Remote switch must be in the on position to ignite burner.
9. Turn on all electric power to the fireplace.
1. Turn off all electric power to the fireplace if service is to
be performed.
2. For a complete shutdown procedure: push in gas con-
trol knob slightly and turn clockwise to off. Do not force.
3. For a temporary showdown procedure: set thermostat
to lowest setting or remote switch to off. Press and turn
the gas knob clockwise to pilot.
When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight
odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condi-
tion 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. 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.

Natural gas models have air shutters set at ¼ (.250") inch
open. Propane gas models have air shutters set at 3/8
(.375) inch open. Closing the air shutter will cause a more
yellow flame, but can lead to carboning. Opening the air
shutter will cause a more blue flame, but can cause flame
lifting from the burner ports. The flame may not appear
