or gas fitter when installed within the commonwealth of
Massachusetts.
In absence of local codes, install to the current CAN1-B149
Installation Code in Canada or to the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1, and NFPA 54 in the United States. Mo-
bile home installation must conform with local codes. In the
absence of local codes, install to the current standard for
gas equipped mobile housing CAN/CSA Z240 MH Series in
Canada or the manufactured home construction and safety
standard, Title 24 CFR, part 3280, or the Fire Safety Criteria
for manufactured home installations, Sites and Community
Standard ANSI/NFPA 501A in the United States.
Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the stove re-
moved. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner
before re-installing the door.
Under extreme vent configurations, allow several min-
utes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.
It is recommended that all horizontal runs have a ¼ inch
rise per foot.
Objects placed in front of the stove must be kept a mini-
mum of 48" away from the front face of the unit.
Thestoveand itsindividualshutoffvalvemust bedisconnected
from the gas supply piping system during any pressure test-
ing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5
kPa). The stove must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than ½ psig (3.5 kPa).
The stove, when installed with a blower, must be electrically
connected and grounded in accordance with local codes. In
the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 CA-
NADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA

As long as clearance to combustibles is kept within the re-
quired distances, the most desirable and beneficial location
for a Napoleon stove is in the centre of a building, thereby
allowing the most efficient use of the heat created. The loca-
tion of windows, doors and the traffic flow in the room where
the stove is to be located should be considered. If possible,
youshould choosea location wherethe ventwill passthrough
the house without cutting a floor or roof joist.

Useonly WolfSteel, SimpsonDura-Vent, SelkirkDirectTemp
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 High 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:
PART SUPPLIER
Duravent - GDS924N Wolf Steel
Amerivent - 4DSCB-N1 American Metal
Direct Temp - 4DT-AAN Selkirk
Forvent systems thatprovide seals onthe inner exhaustflue,
onlythe outerair intake jointsmust be sealedusing ared 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 temperature sealant Mill Pac.
High temperature sealant must be ordered separately.
When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only the
following vent kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD175 (7-1/2'
of venting included), WALL TERMINAL KIT GD176 (24" of
ventingincluded), or 1/12 TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL
KIT GD110, 8/12 TO 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD111,
FLAT ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD112 or STOVE PERISCOPE
KIT GD180 (for wall penetration below grade) in conjunction
with the appropriate venting components.
• These vent kits allow for
either horizontal or vertical
venting of the stove.
• The maximum number of
4" flexible connections
is 3 horizontally or three
vertically (excluding the
stove and the air terminal
connections).
• When terminating
vertically, the minimum
vertical rise is 3 feet
above the stove and the
maximum vertical rise is
40 feet. FIGURE 4.
Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length can
create difficulty in burner start-up and/or carboning.
Use an adjustable pipe as the final length of rigid
piping to the stove for ease of installation.
FIGS 6a-b
FIGURE 5
HORIZONTAL RUN NOT TO
EXCEED VERTICAL RISE
• For optimum flame appearance and stove performance,
keep the vent length and number of elbows to a mini
mum.
• 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.
The maximum horizontal run with a 57 inch vertical rise im-
mediately above the stove is 20 feet . FIGURES 6a-b.

VERTICAL THROUGH EXISTING CHIMNEY
This appliance is designed to be attached to a 3" co-lin-
ear aluminum flex vent system running the full length of a
masonry chimney.
The flexliner accommdates any contours of a masonry
chimney, however, it is necessary to keep the flexible liner
as straight as possible. The inlet air collar of the termina-
tion cap must be connected to the air intake pipe.
Use Simpson Duravent Chimney Liner Termination Kit
- 923GK (Baseplate and Co-Linear to Co-Axial Adaptor.
Follow manufacturers (Simpson Dura-Vent) installation
instructions.
When installing the unit to this system, Duravent vent
components must be used. You must start with a Duravent
adaptor, GDS924N, directly off the unit. The GDS924N is
only available at your Napoleon dealer.
INSTALLATION

W415-0547 / B / 05.08.06
Thisapplication occurswhen ventingthrough an exteriorwall.
Having determined the air terminal location, cut and frame
a hole in an exterior wall with a minimum rectangle opening
of 10" x 9".
IMPORTANT: FOR OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE, THE
STOVE PIPE SHOULD RISE ¼" PER FOOT OF RUN.
1. Assemble the shield to the spacer as shown, using the
3 shorter screws supplied.
The shield is meant to protect combustible materials within
the wall. If the shield is deeper than the combustible portion
of the wall, cut to fit.
2.Applya beadof caulkingall aroundand place thefirestop
spaceroverthe frameworkto restrictcoldair frombeing drawn
into the room or around the stove. Ensure that both spacer
and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles.
Secure the spacer in place using the 4 longer screws sup-
plied.Once the vent pipe is installed in its finalposition, apply
sealant between the pipe and the firestop spacer.
FIGURE 16
HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs
when venting through a
roof.
Installation kits for vari-
ous roof pitches are
available from your Na-
poleon dealer. See Ac-
cessories to order the
specific kit required.
1. Determinethe air terminallocation and movethe stove into
position. Cut and frame 9" x 10" openings in the ceiling and
the roof to provide the minimum 1 inch clearance between
thestove pipe andany combustible material.Tryto center the
exhaust pipe location midway between two joist 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 MATE-
RIAL. 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 open-
ing 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 insulation,
from filling up the 1" air space
around the pipe.

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.
2. Stretch the inner aluminum flex
liner to the required length. Slip the
liner 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 the high
temperature sealant.
3.Repeat using the outer aluminum
flex liner.
4. Thread the air terminal connector
/ liner 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.
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.
6. Aligning the seams of
the terminal and air terminal
connector, place the terminal
over the air terminal connector
making sure the liner goes into the hole in the terminal.
Secure with the three screws provided.
7. Apply a heavy bead of weatherproof caulking 2
inches above the flashing. Note: Maintain a minimum
2” space between the air inlet base and the storm collar.
Install the storm collar around the air terminal and slide
down to the caulking. Tighten to ensure that a weather-
tight seal between the air terminal and the collar is
achieved.
