INTRODUCTION
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Combustion and dilution air is brought into the unit
through the fresh air intake collars located on the top
rear of the unit.
2. The combustion air is brought into the firebox through
many small holes in the airwash located at the top and
sides of the opening.
3. The dilution air is introduced high in the firebox above
the baffle to cool the chimney.
4. A single air control regulates the burn rate.
5. Inside the firebox combustion takes place and ex-
hausts out the chimney.
6. The optional blower can be installed to draw fresh
outside air into the home (not recommended in colder
climates),theneithertheNZ150-KTkitortheNZ64blower
can be installed inside and will circulate the air into your
home.

If the glass is not kept clean permanent discolouration and /
or blemishes may result. Normally a hot fire will clean the
glass. The most common reasons for dirty glass include: not
using sufficient fuel to get the stove thoroughly hot, using
green or wet wood, closing the draft so far that there is insuf-
ficient air for complete combustion. If it is necessary to clean
the glass, use a soft cloth with a non-abrasive cleaner.
Do not clean the glass when hot!
The glass is very strong but do not let burning fuel rest or fall
against it and always close the door gently. Never force it
shut!
If the glass should ever crack while the fire is burning, do not
open the door until the fire is out and do not operate the stove
again until the glass has been replaced with a new 5mm
thick piece of ceramic glass, available from your Napoleon /
Wolf Steel Ltd. dealer. Do not substitute materials.
For information on glass removal and replacement, see
Maintenance.
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean plated parts. Buff lightly
with a clean dry cloth.
GENERAL INFORMATION
CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS
CALIFORNIA PROP 65 WARNING:
Use of this product may produce smoke which
contains chemicals known to the State of Califor-
nia to cause cancer, birth defects, or other repro-
ductive harm.
Do not use makeshift compromises during
installation. Do not block or restrict air, grille or lou-
vre openings! Do not add a hood.
Burning your unit with door open or ajar creates a
fire hazard that may result in a house and/or chimney
fire.
All venting connections must be in compliance with
the chimney manufacturers installation instructions.
Clearances referred to throughout this manual are
the minimum requirements.
Your Napoleon fireplace must be installed in accord-
ance with all national and local building code stand-
ards and the standard of Chimney and Fireplaces,
Vents and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances NFPA #211.
Consult the authority having jurisdiction (such as
municipal building department, fire department, fire
prevention bureau, etc.) to determine the need to
obtain a permit. If you are in doubt about the proper
installation for your situation, contact your dealer or
local building or fire official. The manufacturer does
not guarantee that this fireplace and its options will
completely heat your entire home.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up
and cooling down cycles are normal and to be ex-
pected.
It is recommended that in all cases, the fireplace
be secured to the floor. Use the pallet packing brack-
ets to accomplish this.

A HOT AIR GRAVITY VENT SYSTEM (NZ221) may be
used to distribute heat to an adjoining room (located either
above, or beside the room containing the fireplace) by way of
vents. Air flow through this vent must be experimented with
and the dampers of the grill adjusted manually to suit your
requirements. This may take a few attempts; thereafter ad-
justments should no longer be required as is normally expe-
rienced with your central heating system registers.
The hot air vent must be installed in an upward direction!
NEVER install in a downward direction. The hot air gravity
vent system is not to be connected to a central heating
system.
No more than two hot air gravity vents may be connected to
the fireplace. Individual vent runs are not to exceed 10 feet.
All hot air gravity vents must be insulated.

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 clear-
ance to combustibles is maintained within the cavity.
Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a
minimum of 48" away from the front face of the unit.
Do not build shelves or cupboards into the area
above the fireplace.

LOCATION AND CLEARANCES
IMPORTANT
This unit, fully dressed, weighs 850 lbs
(385.6kg)
Ensure there is adequate floor support for the
unit, chimney and facing material. Some ma-
terial could weigh thousands of pounds.
The fireplace is
shipped with a set-up
face that is 1/8" larger
on the top, bottom
and each side than
the faceplate. Leave
the set-up face in
place to act as a tem-
plate when installing
the finishing face.
Remove and dis-
card the lifting han-
dles. Bend the tabs
down and secure
the unit to the floor.
Using the door
opening as a datum,
level the fireplaceby
shimming under-
neath the fireplace.
The fireplace enclosure must be provided with sufficient
air circulation to avoid a fire hazard. Install ventilation grilles
(minimum openings of 40 sq. inches) at both floor and
ceiling levels of the enclosure. These grilles must not re-
strict the flow of heat by more than 25%.
Do not install into any area having a height less than 7 feet
(ceiling of enclosure to fireplace bottom, excluding hearth
height).
The location of windows, doors and the traffic flow in the
room where the stove is to be located should be considered.
If possible, you should choose a location where the
chimney will pass through the house without cutting a floor
or roof joist.
We recommend that the
fireplace be secured to
the floor in all cases.

W415-0594/A/02.15.07

The fireplace face and
enclosure ceiling must be
framed using 2x4 metal
studs.
The minimum enclosure
ceiling height is 7 feet.
Non-combustible
materials (cement board
and metal studs) must be
used.

Included with the fireplace
are:
- two 10' lengths of vent. Use
a connector and seal if add-
ing more length.
- two of intake hoods.
The duct terminations must be located so they can not be
blocked (i.e. snowdrifts). 4' above grade is recommended.
Make a 6 ½" inch hole to suit in an outside wall of the
house. From outside, place the fresh air hood into the hole,
open side down. Seal with caulking and secure.
An optional combustible mantle must be a minimum of
12" above the top of the faceplate and not to extend more
than 2" from the surface. See chart below for further
information.
OUTSIDE COMBUSTION AIR
MANTLE CLEARANCES
Insulating the in-
take liners is
recommended
in colder
climates to pre-
vent condensa-
tion from
occuring.
The vertical height of the air intake liner must not be
greater than 2/3 the height of the chimney. If additional
liner length is required, it may be doubled by increasing
the size from 6" diameter to 8" diameter. Use a 6" to 8"
increaser at the hood and a decreaser at the fireplace.
Values in brackets represent 8" diameter intake liners.
Note: Incorporate a vertical loop or trap
into air liners to reduce air flow when
unit is not in use.

An acceptable 61½" x 20" non-combustible (ie: brick, stone
or ceramic tile) hearth extension must be installed.
Hearth must extend 20" in front of the faceplate when it is
not elevated (see local building codes).
Hearth must extend a minimum of 6" to both sides of the
unit (61 ½").
Hearth must be a minimum of 1" thick cement board (or
equivalent) plus ¼" ceramic tile.
Ensure that the gap
between the
fireplace and a
combustible hearth
extension is sealed
with sand/cement
grout or covered
with a metal strip (or
both) to prevent
sparks and embers
from falling into this
area.

While the fireplace can be installed directly on the floor, a
non-combustible hearth extension is required in front of
the fireplace, that must not be built higher than the bottom
of the fireplace faceplate. It may therefore be advisable to
build the fireplace on a raised platform.
Hearths raised minimum 6 ½" must extend a minimum of
18".

A raised hearth together with the fireplace built on a raised
platform is recommended for easier wood loading and fire
viewing.
The diameter of the chimney is 8".
A chimney venting the fireplace shall not vent any other
appliance.
The minimum overall chimney height from the top of
the fireplace is 15 feet.
The maximum overall chimney height from the top of
the fireplace is 34 feet.
Factory-built chimney systems for use in dwellings
constructed for three or more families must be enclosed
above the room in which the fireplace is located. This
enclosure must have a fire resistance rating equal to or
greater than that of the floor or roof assembly through
which they pass.
If the chimney system is enclosed within the attic area,
a rafter radiation shield is required.
The chimney should not be built with an offset angle in
excess of 45° in Canada and 30° in USA.
The chimney must extend at least 3 feet above its point
of contact with the roof and at least 2 feet higher than
any wall, roof or building within 10 feet.
CHIMNEY INSTALLATION
If the chimney extends more than 5 feet above the roof,
it must be secured using a roof brace or guide wires.
Ensure that minimum clearances are maintained.
Portions of the chimney that extend through accessible
spaces must always be encased to avoid personal
contact with the chimney and thereby avoid damage to
the chimney.
A raincap must be installed to avoid internal damage
and corrosion.
The chimney must be supported at a maximum of 20
foot intervals (approx. 200 lbs/20 ft).
This fireplace was tested to CAN /ULC S610 Standard for
Factory Built Fireplaces, and to UL 127 Factory Built
Fireplaces. This Factory Built Fireplace is certified to burn
Fire Wood. The Factory Built Fireplace model: NZ6000
has met test criteria for Zero Clearance Installation to
Combustible Surfaces.
Any 8" diameter chimney listed to these standards may be
installed. In accordance with these standards, the unit may
also be connected to any chimney listed to CAN/ULC-S604
and CAN/ULC-S629 for Canada or UL-103HT for the United
States.
Installation of all types of factory-built chimney systems is
to be in accordance with the chimney manufacturers in-
stallation instructions. An appropriate chimney manufac-
turers anchor base plate and anchor base plate gasket is
required in order to initiate their system. Use the high tem-
perature gasket, supplied, to seal between the anchor plate
and the fireplace top. Air cooled chimney systems are not
recommended in colder climates.
5Place brass
washers onto
the faceplate hinge
bushing (2 extra
washers are sup-
plied in order to level
the doors if needed).
To remove the doors, open them slightly and lift them out of
the faceplate hinge bushings.
Install the air

haust flue of the fireplace, midpoint between two joists to
prevent having to cut them. Use a plumb bob to line up the
centre.
2. Cut and frame an opening in the ceiling to provide a
minimum clearance of 2" between the outside of the chim-
ney and any combustible material. DO NOT FILL THIS
SPACE WITH ANY TYPE OF MATERIAL! Nail headers
between the joists for extra support. Firestop spacers must
be placed on each framed opening in any floor or ceiling
that the chimney passes through.
3. Hold a plumb bob from the underside of the roof to
determine where the opening in the roof should be. Cut
and frame the roof opening maintaining proper 2" clear-
ances.
Add chimney sections, securely, to the required height. Use
a rafter radiation shield whenever the chimney system is
enclosed within an attic area.
- Chimney must extend 3' above the roof.
- Chimney must extend 2' above any portion of the roof
within 10' of the chimney.

The first flue offset closest to the top of the unit
must be a minimum distance of 12" from the top
of the fireplace.
Attach an elbow to the chimney section, angled toward the
offset. Secure with 3 - #8X1/2" sheet metal screws. To
achieve the minimum offset, attach and secure a second
elbow. To achieve longer offsets, you may install any
available length of chimney pipe between the elbows to a
maximum length of 4'.
Supports must be used on the first vertical chimney sec-
tion after a return elbow.
OFFSET CHIMNEY INSTALLATION INSTALLING FLASHING AND STORM
COLLAR
Remove the nails from the shingles above and to the sides
of the chimney. Place the flashing over the chimney pipe
and slide underneath the sides and upper edge of the
shingles. Ensure that the chimney pipe is properly centered
within the flashing, giving a 3/4" margin all around. Fasten
to the roof on the top and sides. DO NOT NAIL through the
lower portion of the flashing. Make weather-tight by seal-
ing with caulking. Where possible, cover the sides and top
edges of the flashing with roofing material. Apply water-
proof caulking, provided with the flashing, around the chim-
ney, 1" above the top of the flashing and push the storm
collar down into the caulking. Insert a rain cap onto the top
of the last chimney section.

The Napoleon Model
NZ6000 may be
connected to either a
lined or unlined
masonry chimney.
IF THE CHIMNEY
IS LINED, the flues
must be made of
vitrified clay and be in
sizes of 8" square or
8" round (inside
diameters) or 8"x12"
with a minimum
height of 15 feet
above the fireplace.
Eight inch round flues
are recommended.
Installation must
conform to both
national and local
code requirements.
IF THE CHIMNEY IS UNLINED, a stainless steel liner
listed to either Standard ULC-S640M in Canada or UL-
1777 in the USA: Liners for New Masonry Chimneys, may
be used to connect the fireplace to the chimney. The liner
must be continuous from the fireplace to the chimney cap
and be installed only per manufacturers instructions. In
both cases, the chimney structure must be supported by
angle iron anchored into the masonry walls. The allow-
able masonry used in chimney construction is 3-1/2" brick,
solidly mortared and fully encasing the flue. Ensure there
are no leaks.
In no case is the masonry enclosure to be supported
by the NZ6000 fireplace. Allow a 1" (one inch) air cavity
for expansion.

We recommend installing the blower in a different room or
even different level of the house. This will generate greater
air movement and improve the distribution of the warm air
coming from the fireplace.
1. Remove the template.
2. Position the blower to an in-
side or outside wall into a framed open-
ing 12 3/8” wide by 10 1/2” high. (Outside wall
not recommended in colder climates as cold air may
be drawn into the house when the fireplace is off.)
