VERTICAL INSTALLATION

Napoleon dealer. See Accessories to order the specifi c kit
required.
1. Determine the air terminal location, cut and frame 9
½ inch for the BGD36CF, or 10 ½ inch for the BGD42CF
openings in the ceiling and the roof to provide the minimum
1 inch clearance between the fi replace pipe / liner and any
combustible material. Try to center the your exhaust pipe
location midway between two joist to prevent having to cut
them. Use a plumb bob to line up the center of the open-
ings.
DO NOT FILL THIS
SPACE WITH ANY TYPE
BGD36CF = 9 1/2"
OF MATERIAL.
BGD42CF = 10 1/2"
A vent pipe shield will
prevent any materials such
as insulation, from fi lling
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 fi nished ceiling), and secure
over the opening in the ceiling. A fi restop 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 fi restop spacer over the vent
shield to restrict cold air from
being drawn into the room or
around the fi replace. Ensure
that both spacer and shield
maintain the required clear-
ance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is
installed in its fi nal position, apply sealant between the pipe
/ liner and the fi restop spacer.
NOTE: Two methods to ensure the air terminal covers the
cut out in the wall are;
BGD36CF ONLY
Where the opening in the outside wall has been cut 11 3/8"
tall to provide the 2" clearance from the vent pipe, termi-
nal extension plate W500-0103 must be used to cover the
opening.
BGD36CF & BGD42CF
The fi rst 24" of the top vent pipe must have a 2" clearance
to combustible material when run horizontal. This applies
to any fi nishing material or insulation in the wall that the
vent pipe passes through within that 24". The clearance
from the top of the vent pipe to the combustive material on
the outside surface of the wall only requires a 1" clearance
from the vent pipe.
