GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS THIS GAS FIREPLACE SHOULD BE INSTALLED AND SERV- ICED BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to conform with local codes. In absence of local codes, install the B36DF to the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or the current CAN/CGA B149, Installation Codes.
FIGURE 1 For safe and proper operation of the fireplace follow the venting instruction exactly. Deviation from the minimum vertical vent length can create difficulty in burner start-up and/or carboning. Provide a means for visually checking the vent connection to the fireplace after the fireplace 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...
TYPICAL VENT INSTALLATIONS NOTE: When terminating vertically, the restrictor plate W500-0205 must be installed. Refer to Restricting Vertical Vents. FIGURES 3 a-c When installing with no vertical rise, ensure that the vent pipe does not slope downward. SPECIAL VENT INSTALLATIONS PERISCOPE TERMINATION Use the GD401 periscope kit to locate the air termination above grade.

WALL AND CEILING PROTECTION FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE FIREPLACE, FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY. NOTE: Only a clearance to combustibles of 2" at the top of the vent pipe is required and 1" at the bottom and sides. HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION This application occurs when vent ing through an exterior wall.
USING FLEXIBLE VENT COMPONENTS Use only approved aluminum flexible liner kits marked: "Wolf Steel Approved Venting" as identified by the stamp only on the 8” outer liner. HORIZONTAL AIR TERMINAL INSTALLATION A VENT SHIELD MUST BE USED IF THE WALL TERMINAL IS INSTALLED ON COMBUSTIBLE, EXTERIOR SURFACES.

B36DF MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION FIGURE 27a-d This appliance may be installed as an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) installation in a manufactured home or mobile home and must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280, in the United States or the Mobile Home Standard, CAN/CSA Z240 MH Series, in Canada.
NAILING TAB INSTALLATION 1) Attach the nailing tabs to the corner posts using the 2 sheet metal screws supplied. Secure through the centre of the top and bottom slots in the nailing tab and then through the existing holes in the corner posts. If there are no existing holes, follow these instructions: Position the nailing tab so that the front...
DOOR REMOVAL & INSTALLATION The upper louvres must be removed to allow the door to be opened or closed. To access the lower door latch, open the valve control door. Release the top and bottom door latches, located at the right side of the door. FIGURE 34 FINISHING L36 LOUVRE INSTALLATION...
LOG PLACEMENT PHAZER logs and glowing embers exclusive to Napoleon Fire- places, provide a unique and realistic glowing effect that is different in every installation. Take the time to carefully po- sition the glowing embers for a maximum glowing effect. Log colours may vary.
OPTIONAL BLOWER INSTALLATION FIGURE 37 ANSI/NFPA 70 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE If the fireplace was not previously equipped with a blower: route a grounded 2-wire, 60hz power cable to the receptacle / junction box. At this point, it must be strain relieved and insulated.
OPTIONAL FAN INSTALLATION ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALI- FIED INSTALLER and must be connected and grounded in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 C Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE United States.
OPERATION / MAINTENANCE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS When lit for the first time, the fireplace will emit a slight odour for a few hours. This is a normal temporary condition caused by the curing of the logs and the "burn-in" of inter- nal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing proc- ess and will not occur again.
