Venting; Venting Lengths - Napoleon BGD36CFNTR Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

6
MODEL BGD36CF MAY BE VENTED EITHER AS A TOP VENT OR A REAR VENT.
For safe and proper operation of the fi replace follow the venting instruction exactly. Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length
can create diffi culty in burner start-up and/or carboning. Provide a means for visually checking the vent connection to the fi replace
after the fi replace is installed. Vent lengths that pass through unheated spaces (attics, garages, crawl spaces) should be insulated
with the insulation wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize condensation.

VENTING LENGTHS

Use only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp or
American Metal Amerivent venting components. Minimum and maxi-
mum vent lengths, for both horizontal and vertical installations, and
air terminal locations for either system are set out in this manual and
must be adhered to. For Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp and
American Metal Amerivent, follow the installation procedure provided
with the venting components.
A starter adaptor must be used with the following vent systems and
may be purchased from the corresponding supplier:

silicone (RTV). This same sealant may be used on both the inner
exhaust and outer intake vent pipe joints of all other approved vent
systems except for the exhaust vent pipe connection to the fi replace
fl ue collar which must be sealed using the black high temperature
sealant Mill Pac.

WALL TERMINAL KIT GD222, or 1/12 to 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMI-
NAL KIT GD110, 8/12 to 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD111, FLAT
ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD112 or PERISCOPE KIT GD201 (for wall
penetration below grade). With fl exible venting, in conjunction with
the various terminations, use either the 5 FOOT VENT KIT GD220
or the 10 FOOT VENT KIT GD330.

Steel fl exible components with the following termination kits: WALL
TERMINAL KIT GD422, or 1/12 to 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL
KIT GD410, 8/12 to 12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD411, FLAT
ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD412 or PERISCOPE KIT GD401 (for wall

These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting of the
fi replace. The maximum allowable horizontal run is 20 feet. The
maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet. The maximum
number of vent connections is two horizontally or three vertically
(excluding the fi replace and the air terminal connections) when us-
ing fl exible venting.
For optimum fl ame appearance and fi replace performance, keep
the vent length and number of elbows to a minimum.

spacer (W010-1774) supplied with the unit must be used to
maintain this clearance.
VERTICAL VENT SECTIONS: - A minimum of 1" all around
the vent pipe on all vertical runs to combustibles is required
except for clearances in fi replace enclosures. See "MINIMUM
ENCLOSURE CLEARANCES" section. Use fi restop spacer
W500-0096 (not supplied).
