GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS THIS GAS STOVE 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 specifics that apply to your area, ie: in Massachusetts State: • The fireplace damper must be removed or welded in the open position prior to installation of a fireplace insert. • The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock. • The flexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.

LOCATION AND CLEARANCES Provide adequate ventilation and combustion air. Provide adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and operating the stove. Never obstruct the front opening of the stove. MAINTAIN THESE MINIMUM CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES: GDS28 AND GS28: As long as clearance to combustibles is kept within the required distances, the most desirable and beneficial location for a Napoleon stove is in the centre of a building, thereby allowing the most efficient use of the heat created.
PAGE 6
For optimum flame appearance and stove performance, keep the vent length and number of elbows to a minimum. The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times. Examine the air terminal at least once a year to verify that it is unobstructed and undamaged. The maximum horizontal run is 34 inches with a 90° elbow located 29" above the stove. FIGURE 4. The maximum horizontal run with a 57 inch vertical rise immediately above the stove is 20 feet . Figures 5.

WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION For safe and proper operation of the stove, follow the venting instructions exactly. HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION: This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall. FIGURES 4, 5, & 11. Having determined the air terminal location, cut and frame a hole in an exterior wall with a minimum square or round opening of 9". (As an alternative to framing, a vent pipe shield may be inFIGURE 11 stalled, ensuring a 1" clearance to combustibles. See Figure 12.

HORIZONTAL VENTING INSTALLATION VERTICAL VENTING INSTALLATION For safe and proper operation of the stove, follow the venting instructions exactly. For horizontal runs, both Wolf Steel and Simpson Duravent venting components may have a 0" rise per foot. For optimum performance it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot. 1. Stretch the 4" diameter aluminium flexible liner to the required length taking into account the additional length needed for the finished wall surface.

STOVE VENT CONNECTION 1. Attach the adjustable pipe to the last section of rigid piping. Secure with screws and seal. 2. Install the 4" aluminium flexible liner to the stove. Secure with 3 screws and flat washers. Seal the joint and screw holes using the high temperature sealant provided. 3. Run a bead of high temperature sealant around the inside of the air intake collar. Pull the adjustable pipe a minimum 2" into the air intake collar.

OPERATION / MAINTENANCE Purge all gas lines with the glass door open. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before closing the door. Allow several minutes (5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition. MODEL GS28 ONLY: SPILL SWITCH This is a thermally activated switch, attached to the back of the chimney adapter, which senses the change in temperature and shuts down the gas valve in the event of a severe downdraft of air or a blocked or disconnected vent.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING: The gas valve has an interlock device which will not allow the pilot burner to be lit until the thermocouple has cooled. Allow approximately 60 seconds for the thermocouple to cool. When lighting and relighting, the gas knob cannot be turner from PILOT to OFF unless the knob is depressed. 1. STOP! Read the safety information on the operating label. 2. Turn off all electric power to the fireplace. to off. 3. Turn the gas knob clockwise 4.
