1. Mark and cut the vent pipe shield to the determined
depth of the combustible wall. Apply a bead of caulking
(not supplied) to the framework or to the shield plate (in the
case of a fi nished wall) and secure the shield through the
opening to the interior wall. The fi nal location of the vent
pipe shield should maintain the required clearance to the
vent pipe / liner. (See note above). Do not fi ll this cav-
ity with any type of material. 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 clearance 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.
This application occurs when venting through a roof. Instal-
lation kits for various roof pitches are available from your
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
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 openings.

DO NOT FILL THIS SPACE
WITH ANY TYPE OF MATE-
RIAL.
A vent pipe shield will prevent
any materials such as insula-
tion, from fi lling up the 1" air
space around the pipe. Nail
headers between the joist for
extra support.
2. Apply a bead of caulk-
ing (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
clearance 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 10½" tall
to provide the 2" clearance from the vent pipe, terminal ex-
tension plate W500-0103 may 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 all 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.
