This application occurs
when venting through a
roof. Installation kits for
various roof pitches are
available from your Napo-
leon dealer. See Accesso-
ries to order the specific
kit required.
1.
Determine the air terminal location, cut and frame 10
inch openings in the ceiling and the roof to provide the
minimum 1 inch clearance between the fireplace pipe /
liner and any combustible material. Try to center the ex-
haust 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 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 sup-
plied) to the frame-
work 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 / liner is installed in its
final position, apply sealant between the pipe / liner and
the firestop spacer.
FIGURE 16
This application occurs when vent
ing through an exterior wall. Having
determined the air terminal location,
cut and frame a hole in an exterior
wall with a minimum opening as
required.
See Note above.
(As an
alternative to framing, a vent pipe
shield may be installed, ensuring
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 caulking
(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 required clearance to the
8" vent pipe / liner. (See note above). Do not fill this cavity
with any type of material.
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 fire-
place. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the
required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent
pipe / liner is installed in its final position, apply sealant
between the pipe / liner and the firestop spacer.

OR
FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE FIREPLACE,
FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
NOTE: Only a clearance to combustibles of 2" at the
top of the vent pipe is required and 1" at the bottom
and sides.
