INSTALLATION
This fireplace is intended for installation on an outdoor
patio or in your yard. It must never be installed inside the
warm air envelope of your structure.
It is highly recommended that this fireplace be installed in
a “sheltered” area. Direct wind will cause an erratic flame
and possible pilot or main burner outage.
An erratic flame could also lead to excessive carboning
(black soot), this condition is not a safety issue but is visu-
ally undesirable.
Typical installation may include covered patio, gazebo or
outside the wall of a house.
Sides, back, bottom & top 0 inches
Recessed 13¾ inches
It is recommended that the walls of the fireplace enclo-
sure be finished. This would ensure that clearance to
combustibles is maintained within the cavity.
COMBUSTION & VENTILATION AIR
CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES
NOTE: If the unit is installed using a propane cylinder
as a source of fuel, the cylinder must be retained. A
stand for a standard 20lb cylinder is available from your
Napoleon Dealer.
1. Move the fireplace into position and secure using the
nailing tabs and/or secure to the floor through the ¼"ø
holes located at either end of the base.
2. Install rigid black pipe, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or, if
local codes permit, a 3/8" flex connector and shutoff valve
to the gas line and the fireplace gas valve. Seal and tighten
securely. An adapter fitting is required between the gas
valve and the copper tubing or flex connector.
DO NOT KINK FLEX CONNECTOR.
3. Check for gas leaks by brushing on a soap and water
solution.
DO NOT USE OPEN FLAME.
4. For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall
switch may be installed in a convenient location. Route a
2 strand, solid core millivolt wire through the electrical hole
located at the bottom left side of the unit. The recommended
maximum lead length depends on wire size:
WIRE SIZE MAX. LENGTH
14gauge 100 feet
16gauge 60 feet
18gauge 40 feet
Attach the two leads to terminals 1 and 3 located on the
gas valve.
Do not connect either the wall switch, thermostat or
gas valve to electricity (110 volts).
