INSTALLATION
WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION
FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE FIREPLACE, FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION:
This application occurs when venting through an
exterior wall.
FIGURES 3a-c.
Having determined the air terminal location, cut and frame
a hole in an exterior wall with a minimum square or round opening of 9½".
(As an
alternative to framing, a vent pipe shield may be installed, ensuring a 1" clearance to
combustibles.
See Figure 6
.)
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 inte-
rior wall.
The final location of the vent
pipe shield should maintain the required
clearance to the 7" vent pipe / liner. Do
not fill this cavity with any type of mate-
rial.
Apply a bead of caulking all around
and place a firestop spacer over the
vent shield to restrict cold air from be-
ing 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.
VERTICAL INSTALLATION:
This application occurs when venting through a roof.
FIGURE 2.
Installation kits for various roof pitches are available from your Napoleon
dealer. See Accessories to order the specific kit required.
1.
Determine the air terminal location, cut and frame 9½ 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 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 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 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 opening in the ceiling.
FIGURE 8.
A firestop must be placed on the bottom
of each framed opening in a roof or ceiling that the venting system passes
through.
FIGURE 9.
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.
3.
In the attic, after the pipe / liner 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.
