Care Of Glass & Plated Parts; Venting; Vent Lengths - Napoleon The Dream BGD90NT Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean glass. Buff lightly with
a clean dry cloth. The glass is 3/16" tempered glass avail-
able from your NAPOLEON® / Wolf Steel Ltd. dealer. DO
NOT SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS. Clean the glass after the
fi rst 10 hours of operation with a recommended gas fi replace
glass cleaner. Thereafter clean as required. DO NOT CLEAN
GLASS WHEN HOT! If the glass is not kept clean permanent
discolouration and / or blemishes may result.
VENTING LENGTHS & AIR TERMINAL
LOCATIONS
For safe and proper operation of the fi replace follow the
venting instuction 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, ga-
rages, crawl spaces) should be insulated with the insulation
wrapped in a protective sleeve to minimize condensation.
When using NAPOLEON® venting components, use only
approved Wolf Steel Ltd. fl exible vent components with the
following termination kits: WALL TERMINAL KIT GD622, or
1/12 TO 7/12 PITCH ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD610, 8/12 TO
12/12 ROOF TERMINAL KIT GD611, FLAT ROOF TERMINAL
KIT GD612. With fl exible venting, in conjunction with the
various terminations, use either the 5 foot vent kit GD620 or
the 10 foot vent kit GD630. These vent kits allow for either
horizontal or vertical venting of the fi replace.
The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet.
The maximum number of allowable 8" vent connections is
three horizontally or vertically (excluding the fi replace and
the air terminal connections).
For optimum fl ame appearance and fi replace performance,
keep the vent length and number of elbows to a minimum.
The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times. Ex-
amine the air terminal at least once a year to verify that it is
unobstructed and undamaged.
When venting, the horizontal run must be kept to a
minimum of 16 inches or a maximum of 20 feet. If a 20
foot horizontal run is required, the fireplace must have
a minimum vertical rise immediately off the fireplace of
57 inches. FIGURES 2a-c. When terminating vertically,
the vertical rise is a minimum 34 inches and a maximum
40 feet above the fireplace. FIGURE 3.

VENTING

FIGURES 2A-B
For optimum performance, it is recommended that all
horizontal runs have a minimum ¼ inch rise per foot.
Provide a means for visually checking the vent connec-
tion to the fireplace after the fireplace is installed.
Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal
or vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled tight. A 3/4"
air gap between the inner and outer liner all around is
required for safe operation.
Use a firestop when penetrating interior walls, floor or
ceiling.
For safe and proper operation of the fireplace follow the
venting instruction exactly.
If vertical rises greater than 57 inches are necessary,
the increased rise must be deducted from the horizontal
run.
We Suggest that our gas
