MODEL NZ26
WARNING: If this fireplace is not properly installed, a house fire may result.
This fireplace has not been tested with an unvented gas log set. To reduce risk of fire or injury,
do not install an unvented gas log set into the fireplace.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Follow the installation directions. This fireplace can be very hot when burning. Combustible
materials such as firewood, wet clothing, etc. placed too close can catch fire. Children and
pets must be kept from touching the fireplace when it is hot. The chimney must be sound and
free of cracks. Before installing this unit, contact the local building or fire authority and follow
their guidelines.
Operate only with the door tightly closed. Burn wood behind the log retainer directly on the
firebricks. Do not use an elevated grate or otherwise raise the fire. This fireplace is designed
to burn natural wood only. Higher efficiencies and lower emissions generally result when
burning air dried seasoned hardwoods, as compared to softwoods or to green or freshly cut
hardwoods. Do not start a fire with chemicals or fluids such as gasoline, engine oil, etc. Do
not burn treated wood, coal, charcoal, coloured paper, cardboard, solvents or garbage. Do
not let the fireplace become hot enough for any part to glow red.

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 the ash dump door open or
ajar creates a fire hazard that may result in discol-
oration to the gold plated door, internal damage to
the fireplace or a house and/or chimney fire.
All venting connections must be in compliance with the chim-
ney manufacturers installation instructions.
Clearances referred to throughout this manual are the mini-
mum requirements.
Your Napoleon fireplace must be installed in accordance with
all national and local building code standards and the stand-
ard of Chimney and Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel Burning
Appliances NFPA #211. Consult the authority having jurisdic-
tion (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 cool-
ing down cycles are normal and to be expected.
Mobile home installation requires that the fireplace
be secured to the floor. It is recommended that in all cases,
the fireplace be secured to the floor. Use the pallet packing
brackets to accomplish this.
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.
Prolonged high temperature burning with the door ajar may
cause a permanent rainbowing effect on the lower edge of a
gold plated door.
This is the most effi-
cient, simple and
trouble free
woodburning sys-
tem we know of and
works as follows:
Primary combustion air
enters through the air
control inlet box regu-
lated by a draft control,
travels up the side
through a duct and en-
ters the top center of the
combustion chamber
intoapreheatingairwash
located across the top
and then down the win-
dow to feed the fire and
also to ensure that the
glass remains clean.
Secondary air feeds directly into the combustion chamber at
hearth level through the log retainer and also through inlets
located at the bottom back corners of the combustion cham-
ber. This air travels up the riser to the four secondary air tubes
located at the top and shoots out laterally to oxidize the gases
rising to the smoke exit.
The combustion chamber is lined with high-temperature fire-
brick on all sides, and across the bottom to maintain a high
temperature in the combustion chamber so that gases mix-
ing with the preheated air from the secondary air tubes are
easily ignited and burned. Indeed, it is fascinating to watch
flames flickering much of the time from the secondary air
tubes. The fireplace sides and back permit a zero clearance
installation and direct the heat upwards and forwards into the
room. Be sure to provide sufficient combustion air. There are
many other appliances in your home competing for air such
as a kitchen range hood, forced air heating devices or a bath-
room exhaust fan.
If the outside air feature is utilized, you will never experience a
shortage of combustion air. If you choose not to utilize outside
air and experience draft or smoking problems, you may need
to open a door or window.
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 firebox burning off. Open a window to sufficiently venti-
late the room.

For a basic hi-efficiency fireplace, blowers are not needed, how-
ever, they are recommended for extra heat output and efficient air
circulation. This can be especially important if the fireplace is to be
used as a major source of heat. Without the use of blowers, the
Napoleon Model NZ26 will operate as a regular hi-efficiency fire-
place.
A BLOWER KIT (NZ62) may be purchased with the option of
adding up to one additional blower. These blowers are installed
in the bottom of the unit and are used to direct the heat into the
room where the fireplace is located. The blowers are controlled,
by a variable speed switch, located inside the fireplace.
A THERMOSTATIC AIR CONTROL (NZ690KT), may be
used for constant heat, complete with automatic damper and
thermostat, wall mounted in the room containing the fireplace,
and at least 10 feet (minimum) from the fireplace. This op-
tion allows your room temperature to be kept as evenly con-
trolled as it would with other fuels while still enjoying the com-
fort of wood heat.
A HOT AIR GRAVITY VENT SYSTEM (NZ220) may be
used to distribute heat to an adjoining room (located either
above, or beside the room containing the fireplace) by way of
vents, eliminating the need of an additional blower. While this
system may be used in conjunction with the optional blowers,
it could reduce the flow of hot air being distributed to additional
rooms. It must be experimented with and the dampers ad-
justed manually to suit your requirements. This may take a
few attempts; thereafter adjustments should no longer be re-
quired as is normally experienced with your central heating
system registers.
The heat shield cover plate must be removed before in-
stalling the gravity vent. The hot air vent must be installed
in an upward direction! NEVER install in a downward di-
rection. Figures 5c, 5d & 5e. The hot air gravity vent sys-
tem is not be connected to a central heating system (for
this application use the NZ62CH). This option may not be
used in mobile homes.
No more than two hot air gravity vents can be installed to
fireplace. Individual vent runs are not to exceed 10 feet.
All hot air gravity vents must be insulated.
A CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEM (NZ62CH) maybe used
to heat rooms up to 50 feet from the unit. A wall mounted
thermostat located in the room to be heated controls the
blower supplying warm air from the room containing the
fireplace. If a hot air duct system exists, the central heat
blower may safely be tied into this system to reduce the
amount of new ducting required. Consult with a heating
specialist to ensure a proper duct layout for your home. If
the NZ62CH is installed at the bottom of the unit, it could
introduce a cool draft into the room that the fireplace is
installed in. When attached to the top or sides of the unit, it
provides a higher heat output. This option may not be
used in mobile homes.
FIGURES4
A HOT AIR DISTRIBUTION KIT (GA-566) may be used
to distribute warm air from the fireplace base (only) into a
separate location in the home.
These options may be incorporated with one another. If the
optional blowers are to be installed, make provision dur-
ing framing to route a 110 volt power line to the fireplace.
Detailed installation instructions are included with each
venting kit.

W415-0156/A/04.09.03

Do not build shelves or cupboards into the area
above the fireplace.
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 to avoid air flow blockage. It may therefore
be advisable to build the fireplace on a raised platform.
The minimum distance between the edge of the fireplace
and any adjacent wall, at right angles to it, is 21 inches. A
wall projecting at 45° from the outer edge of the fireplace is
allowed; projections into this area are permitted. Do not
install into any area having a height less than 6 feet (ceil-
ing to fireplace bottom, excluding hearth height).
See Section on Framing.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.
MAINTAIN THESE MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO
COMBUSTIBLES:
Fireplace framing - 0" to stand-offs (top, rear, & sides)
Fireplace finishing - 3½" on sides, 63/4" on top.
Recommended: 63/4" sides and top
Factory Built Chimney - 2"

Clearance from combustibles to furnace hot air
duct work as specified by the furnace manufac-
turer is satisfactory. No additional clearances are
required.

Mantle clearance can vary ac-
cording to the mantle depth.
An acceptable 16" x 50" non-combustible (ie: brick, stone
or ceramic tile) hearth extension must be installed. En-
sure that the gap between the fireplace and a factory-built
hearth extension is sealed with sand/cement grout or cov-
ered with a metal strip (or both) to prevent sparks and
embers from falling into this area. A raised hearth together
with the fireplace built on a raised platform is recommended
for easier wood loading and fire viewing.

Installation of all types of factory-built chimney systems is to be in accordance with the chimney manufacturers installa-
tion instructions. An appropriate chimney manufacturers anchor base plate and anchor base plate gasket is required in
order to initiate the twist lock mechanism. Use the high temperature gasket, supplied, to seal between the anchor plate
and the fireplace top. Air cooled chimney systems are not recommended in colder climates.

1. Move the fireplace into position. Try to center the ex-
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 the bottom of 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, twist locking (clockwise) securely,
to the required height. Use a rafter radiation shield when-
ever the chimney system is enclosed within an attic area.
The first flue offset closest to the top of the unit
must be a minimum distance of 12" from the top
of the fireplace.
An insulated elbow must be used when it becomes nec-
essary to offset the chimney in order to clear a joist or to
pass through an upstairs closet.
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 return
elbow to the first. To achieve longer offsets, you may install
any available length of chimney pipe between the elbows.
Supports must be used on the first vertical chimnney sec-
tion after a return elbow.
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.

For a masonry fireplace use a flue tile support. For a pre-
fabricated chimney use an anchor plate.
In no case is the masonry
enclosure to be sup-
ported by the NZ26 fire-
place. Allow a 1" (one inch)
air cavity for expansion.
The Napoleon Model NZ26 may be connected to either a
lined or unlined masonry chimney.
IF THE CHIMNEY IS
LINED, the flues
must be made of vitri-
fied clay and be in
sizes of 8" square, 8" x
12", or 8" round with a
minimum height of 11
feet above the fire-
place.Eight inch round
flues are recom-
mended. 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.
Figure 17. In both cases, the chimney structure must be
supported by angle iron anchored into the masonry
walls. Figures 17 & 18. The allowable masonry used in
chimney construction is 3-1/2" brick, solidly mortared and
fully encasing the flue. Ensure there are no leaks.

Insert the left baffle, then the left top firebrick. Repeat
using the right baffle and brick.
The baffles are made of a brittle material. Care must be
taken not to bend or force them.
Replace the three front tubes. Position the center edges of
both baffles and bricks until they lie snugly together.
Slide the baffle support bracket into place along the front of
the unit between the front tube and the two top firebricks.
Place gasket rope along the upper ledge of the air
chamber and on the top of the rear bricks. The top
and bottom flame spreaders come taped together. This
tape will burn away in the initial firing of the unit. On subse-
quent brick removals, the bottom flame spreader must be
taped to the top spreader to ease top brick and baffle
removal and to avoid damaging the fibre baffles.
WARNING: Operation of the fireplace without the top
firebricks and the baffles can result in excessive tem-
peratures that could damage the fireplace, chimney
and the surrounding enclosure.

Slide the tube either to the left or right and remove. Remove
the two middle tubes in the same fashion.
The fireplace is shipped with the firebricks in place. Top
firebricks, fibre baffles and gasket rope are not installed.

INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED IN-
STALLER and must be electrically connected and grounded
in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local
codes, use the current CSA C22.1 CANADIAN ELECTRI-
CAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL CODE in the United States.
1. Turn off any elec-
trical power to the fire-
place (if applicable).
Open the lower louvred
control door.
2. Locate the vibration reducing pad (one per blower)
over the two threaded studs, piercing 2 holes into the pad.
The blower must be able to be positioned entirely onto the
pad. If only one blower is used, install on the left hand side
of the fireplace.
ONEBLOWERINSTALLATION:
3. Slide the blower to the back of the fireplace taking
care not to damage the terminals. Position the blower onto
the studs and secure using the lock washers and wing
nuts provided. Pull the leads to the front and right side of
the ashpan housing.
4. Remove the junction box. Use a nut connector to
attach one of the black wires of the variable speed switch
to the black power supply wire.
5. Pass the two blower leads and one thermodisc lead
through the junction box bushing. The thermodisc is lo-
cated inside the outer shell, just above the louvre door.
FIGURE 27. Connect one blower lead to the thermodisc
lead using a nut connector and the other blower lead to the
white power supply wire using a nut connector.
6. Thread the other thermodisc lead through the junc-
tion box bushing and connect to the other black wire of the
variable speed switch using a nut connector. Secure
ground wire (green) to the threaded weld stud located on
the junction box wall. Re-install the junction box. Ensure
that the wires will not interfere with the blower.
DUALBLOWERINSTALLATION:
3. Slide the first blower to the back of the fireplace tak-
ing care not to damage the terminals. Position the blower
onto the studs and secure using the lock washers and wing
nuts provided. Pull the leads to the front and right side of the
ashpan housing.
4. Slide the second blower into place, position onto the
studs and secure as before.
5. Remove the junction box cover located on the lower
right outside of the unit. Use a nut connector to attach the black
wire of the variable speed switch to the black power wire.
6. Pass the four blower leads and both thermodisc leads
through the junction box bushing. Connect one blower lead
from each blower and one of the thermodisc leads using a
nut connector and connect the other two blower leads to the
white power supply wire using a nut connector.
7. Connect the other thermodisc lead to the black wire
of the variable speed switch using a nut connector. Secure
ground wire (green) to the threaded weld stud located on
the junction box wall. Re-install the junction box. Ensure
that the wires will not interfere with the blower.
Because the blower is thermally activated, when turned
on, it will automatically start approximately 15-45 min-
utes after lighting the fireplace. Use of the blower in-
creases the output of heat.
Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bearings
causing irreparable damage and must be prevented
from coming into contact with the blower or its com-
partment. Any damage resulting from this condition is
not covered by the warranty policy.

OPTIONAL BLOWER INSTALLATION
If you need to remove the bricks (to lighten the fireplace for
ease of installation, replacement, etc), follow this sequence:
Remove the ashwell grate. This allows the four bot-
tom bricks to be removed first.
Slide out the baffle support bracket from above the front
tube.

FIREBRICK REMOVAL
Reaching above the top firebricks and baffles, lift and tape
the bottom flame spreader to the top spreader to ease top
brick and baffle removal and to avoid damaging the fibre
baffle. Remove the three front tubes.
Remove the top firebrick on the right, then the left firebrick.
Remove the baffles, starting with the right side.
Remove the gasket rope. Check the rope for deterioration
and replace if necessary. Remove the rear bricks (pull the
two bricks forward at the centre, and lift the bottom of the
bricks out). Remove the side bricks (tilt the tops inward).

For maximum efficiency, when the fireplace is thoroughly
hot, load it fully to the top of the door opening and burn at a
medium low setting. The bricks will be nearly all white and
the glass mostly clear. The whiteness of the bricks and the
cleanness of the glass are good indicators of your operat-
ing efficiency.
Not enough heat is produced when only one or two pieces
of wood are burned.Aminimum of three pieces are needed
to encase a bed of coals that sustains the fire. Loosely
stacked wood burns quicker than a tightly packed load.
Wood burns in cycles rather than giving a steady output of
heat. It is best to plan these cycles around your household
routine so that only enough coals are left to start the next
load. In the evening, load your fireplace, at least, a half-
hour before bed to ensure the fire is hot enough to close
the draft control for an overnight burn.
Burn only dry seasoned wood. It produces more heat and
less soot or creosote. Do not burn ocean beach wood. Its
saltcontent can produce ametal eating acid. When refueling
open the door slowly to prevent smoke spillage. Use a pair
of long fireplace gloves when feeding the fire. Keep a small
steel shovel nearby to use as a poker and to remove ashes.
Do not store wood within 3 feet (1m) of the fireplace.
FLASH FIRES: A flash fire is a small fire burned quickly
when you don't need much heat. After your kindling has
"caught", load at least 3 pieces of wood, stacked loosely.
Burn with the draft control fully open or closed only slightly.
EXTENDED FIRE: Load your larger pieces of wood com-
pactly, packed close enough to prevent the flames from
penetrating it completely. After approximately 30 minutes,
depending on the size of the load, close the draft control
completely making sure that the fire is not extinguished.
DO NOT OVERFIRE THE FIREPLACE! Overfiringcan occur
by: a) burning large amounts of smaller wood pieces such
as furniture scraps, skids or treated wood; b) vigorously
burning large loads of wood with the draft control on "HIGH"
(fully open) for long periods of time (one or two hours).
FUEL LOADING AND BURN CYCLE
Remove all source of gasoline or other flammable
vapours and liquids in the vicinity of this or other
appliances prior to lighting. Ensure that the top
firebricks and fibre baffles are in place and not
lifted up.
When first installed, the fireplace and the steel are cold
and must become hot before the fireplace will function
well. During the break-in period (the first 2 or 3 fires) create
only small, hot fires using kindling; this will allow the fire-
brick to cure. Do not be alarmed if small hairline cracks
develop in the firebrick. This is a normal occurrence and
does not pose a safety hazard. The paint may also smell a
little for the first few fires as it cures and you may wish to
open a door or window to alleviate the smell.
To start, a brisk fire is required. Place loosely crumpled
paper on the floor of the fireplace behind the log retainer
and cover with dry kindling. Open the draft control fully by
moving the lever to "HIGH". Light the paper and leave the
door slightly ajar (one inch) until all kindling is burning. To
maintain a brisk fire, a hot coal bed must be established
and maintained.
Slowly add larger wood (2x4 size pieces). Lay the pieces
lengthwise from side to side in the hot coal bed with a
shallow trench between, so that the primary air can flow
directly into this trench and ignite the fuel above. When the
fire seems to be at its peak, medium sized logs may be
added. Once these logs have caught fire, carefully close
the door.
Closing the door too quickly after refueling will reduce
the firebox temperature and result in an unsatisfactory
burn.
Remember it is more efficient to burn medium sized wood,
briskly, and refuel frequently than to load the fireplace with
large logs that result in a smouldering, inefficient fire and
dirty glass.
As soon as the door is closed, you will observe a change
in the flame pattern. The flames will get smaller and lazier
because less oxygen is getting into the combustion cham-
ber. The flames, however, are more efficient. The flames
will remain lazy but become larger again as soon as the
firebricks have been heated thoroughly and the chimney
becomes heated and provides a good draft. At this point,
the roaring fire that you see when the door is opened is
wastefully drawing heated room air up the chimney -- cer-
tainly not desirable. So always operate with the door fully
closed once the medium sized logs have caught fire.
You can now add larger pieces of wood and operate the
fireplace normally. Once the fireplace is entirely hot, it will
burnvery efficientlywith little smoke from the chimney. There
will be a bed of orange coals in the firebox and secondary
flames flickering just below the top of the firebox. You can
safely fill the firebox with wood to the top of the door.
Can't get the stove operating? Use more kindling and
paper. Assuming the chimney and vent are sized correctly
and there is sufficient combustion air, the lack of sufficiently
dry quantities of small kindling is the problem. Thumb size
is a good gauge for small kindling diameter.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Can't get heat out of the stove? One of two things may
have happened. The fireplace door may have been closed
prematurely and the fireplace itself has not reached opti-
mum temperature. Re-open the door and/or draft control to
re-establish a brisk fire. The other problem may have been
wet wood. The typical symptom is sizzling wood and mois-
ture being driven from the wood.

W415-0156/A/04.09.03

A bed of ashes approximately 1 inch deep should be left on
the firebox bottom to help maintain a hot charcoal bed.
When the fire has burned down and cooled, remove any
excess ashes. To use your ash pan, pull the ash dump
handle forward to an open position. Rake the excess ashes
over the grate and into the ash pan. Close the ash well.
2. Be careful not to overfire the unit by leaving the door
open too long after the initial start-up.
3. Always operate the fireplace with the ash well in a closed
position.
4. Replace worn, dried out (inflexible) gaskets.
WHAT TODOIFARUN-AWAYOR CHIMNEYFIRE STARTS:
1. Close the draft fully (lowest position).
2. Call the local fire department.
3. Examine the chimney, attic and roof of the house, to see
if any part has become hot enough to catch fire. If neces-
sary spray with a fire extinguisher or water from a garden
hose.
4. Do not operate the stove again until you are certain the
chimney has not been damaged.
All homes with a solid fuel burning fireplace should have
at least one fire extinguisher in a central location, known to
all, and at least one smoke detector in the room containing
the fireplace. If it sounds an alarm, correct the cause but
do not de-activate or relocate the smoke detector.
Burn only dry, clean unpainted wood that has been sea-
soned. It produces more heat and less soot or creosote.
Freshly cut wood contains about 50% moisture while after
proper seasoning only about 20% of the water remains. As
wood is burned, this water boils off consuming energy that
should be used in heating. The wetter the wood, the less
heat is given off and the more creosote is produced.
Both hardwood and softwood burn equally well in this fire-
place but hardwood, which is denser, will weigh more per
cord and burn a little slower and longer. Firewood should
be split, stacked in a manner that air can get to all parts of
it and covered in early spring to be ready for burning that
fall. Dry firewood has cracks in the end grain.
At the end of each burning season inspect the baffle lo-
cated above the secondary air tubes for deterioration. Re-
place if necessary. At this time also check that the door
gasket is not worn or loose. Replace with 1/2" fibreglass
rope if necessary.
To remove the door, open and lift out; remove the screws and
brackets holding the glass in place. Remove all broken glass.
Wrap the edges of the new glass with a U-shaped strip of
fiberglass gasket, covering 1/4" on each side. Place this
gasketed glass in position and replace the brackets and
screws. When finished, you should be able to move the glass
slightly, horizontally and vertically.
When wood is burned slowly, it produces tar and other
organic vapours which combine with expelled moisture to
form creosote. These vapours condense in the relately
cooler chimney flue of a slow burning fire and when ig-
nited, make an extremely hot fire. So, the chimney should
be inspected monthly during the heating season to deter-
mine if a build-up has occurred. If creosote has accumu-
lated it should be removed to reduce the risk of a chimney
fire.
Run-away fires can be the result of FOUR major factors:
1. Using incorrect fuel, or small fuel pieces which would
normally be used as kindling.
2. Leaving the door ajar too long and creating extreme tem-
peratures as the air rushes in the open door.
3. Burning your fireplace with the ash dump door open.
4. Improperly installed or worn gaskets.
SOLUTIONS:
1. Do not burn treated or processed wood, coal, charcoal,
coloured paper or cardboard.
FIGURE24
ASH REMOVAL PROCEDURES
MAINTENANCE
Never operate your fireplace with the ash well in an
open position!
This creates a fire hazard that may result in a house/chim-
ney fire, internal damage to the stove or discoloration to
the gold plated door (plated finishes are not covered by the
warranty). To ensure that the ash well is fully closed, allow
the door to snap shut, dislodging anything that may be
stuck at the opening.
Flip the cover up onto the ash pan when transporting the
ashes to a closed container with a tight fitting lid for stor-
age. Carry the ash pan using the front and back handles.
Keep the closed container on a non-combustible floor or
ground, well away from all combustible materials. The
ashes should be retained in the closed container until all
cinders have thoroughly cooled. Cold wood ashes can be
used on the garden or compost.

Build your fire on the floor of the firebox and be-
hind the log retainer only.
Do not block or restrict the hot air outlets or air
inlets. This will cause the fireplace to overheat.
Keep fires away from the door .
DOs:
1. Build a hot fire.
2. Use only dry wood
3. Several pieces of medium sized wood are better
than a few big pieces.
4. Clean the chimney regularly.
5. Refuel frequently using medium sized wood.
6. "Fine Tune" the air settings for optimum perform
ance.
DON'Ts:
1. Take ash out immediately. Let it accumulate to a
depth of at least one inch. A good ash layer pro
vides for a longer lasting and better burning fire.
2. Burn wet wood.
3. Close the door too soon or damper down too
quickly.
4. Burn one large log rather than two or three
smaller, more reasonably sized logs.
5. Burn at continually 'low setting', if the glass door
is constantly blackened. This means the firebox
temperature is too low.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cool-
ing down cycles are normal and to be be expected. When
first lighting a fire, if the smoke is not quickly drawn into the
chimney, there may be a downdraft or cold air in the chim-
ney. Roll up some newspaper, light it and place it near the
fireplace flue until the chimney begins to draw. During a
firing, open the draft control before opening the fireplace
door. Open the door slowly to avoid drawing smoke into the
room.
A properly installed Napoleon fireplace should not smoke.
If yours does, check the following: Has the chimney had
time to get hot? Is the smoke passage blocked anywhere
in the fireplace or chimney? Is the room too airtight and the
air intake not connected to the outside? Check with a win-
dow partly open. Is the smoke flow impeded by too long a
horizontal pipe or too many bends? Is it a weak draft per-
haps caused by a leaky chimney, a cold outside chimney,
too short a chimney, or a chimney too close to trees or a
higher roof?
Check your chimney for creosote and soot build-up monthly
until a safe frequency for cleaning is established. If accu-
mulation is excessive, clean the chimney. You may want to
call a professional chimney sweep to clean it. Both the
chimney and the fireplace have to be cleaned at least once
a year or as often as necessary. See the Section on Creo-
sote Formation and Removal.
