THIS GAS APPLIANCE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SERVICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER
to
conform with local codes. Installation practices vary from region to region and it is important to know the
specifi cs that apply to your area, for example in Massachusetts State:
•
The appliance damper must be removed or welded in the open position prior to installation of a appliance
insert or gas log.
•
The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.
• The
fl exible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.
•
A Carbon Monoxide detector is required in all rooms containing gas fi red appliances.
•
The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom or bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent
sealed combustion product.
The installation must conform with local codes or, in
absence of local codes, the National Gas and Propane
Installation Code CSA B149.1 in Canada, or the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54 in the
United States. Suitable for mobile home installation if
installed in accordance with the current standard CAN/
CSA Z240MH Series, for gas equipped mobile homes,
in Canada or ANSI Z223.1 and NFPA 54 in the United
States.
As long as the required clearance to combustibles is maintained, the most desirable and benefi cial location
for a Napoleon® appliance is in the center of a building, thereby allowing the most effi cient use of the heat
created. The location of windows, doors and the traffi c fl ow in the room where the appliance is to be located
should be considered. If possible, you should choose a location where the vent will pass through the house
without cutting a fl oor or roof joist.
When the appliance is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material other than wood
fl ooring, the appliance shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth.
We suggest that our gas
hearth products be installed
and serviced by professionals
who are certified in the U.S.
by the National Appliance
Institute

the ANSI/NFPA 70-1996 National Electrical Code in the United States. The blower power cord must be con-
nected into a properly grounded receptacle. The grounding prong must not be removed from the cord plug.

Gas supply pressure is 4.5 inches water column for natural gas and 11 inches water column
for propane.
Maximum inlet:
Gas pressure is 7 inches water column for natural gas and 13 inches water column for pro-
pane.
When the valve is set to "HI", the manifold pressure under fl ow conditions is 3.5 inches water column for natu-
ral gas and 10 inches water column for propane. When the appliance is installed at elevations above 4,500ft,
and in the absence of specifi c recommendations from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certifi ed high
altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft.
Change in fl ame appearance from "HI" to "LO" is more evident in natural gas than in propane. Expansion /
