READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE YOU INSTALL AND USE THIS HEATER. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY, OR EVEN
DEATH.
Check with local building offi cials for any permits
required for installation of this pellet heater and notify
your insurance company before proceeding with

installation.

Before installing we recommend placing the heater
outside and load 5 pounds of pellets inside the hop-
per. Plug the heater in and let it run on HIGH until the
pellets run out. This will cure the paint and burn off
the oils on the steel, there by minimizing any smell
inside the home.

HEATER PLACEMENT

Have an authorized Napoleon dealer install the heat-
er. If you install the heater yourself, have your dealer
review your installation plans and/or installation.
Draw out a detailed plan of the installation includ-
ing dimensions and verify the dimensions with the
requirements listed in this manual.
When determining the location of the heater, locate
the wall studs (for horizontal penetrations). You may
wish to adjust the heater position slightly to ensure
the vent does not intersect with a framing member.
Heater must be positioned so that no combustibles
are within, or can swing within (e.g. drapes, doors),
48" of the front of the heater.
If the heater is placed in a location where the ceiling
height is less than 7' above the base of the heater,
the installation must follow the requirements in the
section "Alcove Installations Requirements"

stallation Requirements")

INSTALLATION
PLANNING YOUR INSTALLATION
FLOOR PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS
The heater must be installed on a non-combustible
fl oor protector extending the full depth of the heater
and extending 6" in front and both sides (minimum
.018" thick - 26 guage).
The fl oor protector must extend under and 2" beyond
each side and rear of a "Tee" (if used).

SAFETY FEATURES

HIGH LIMIT SWITCH:
Your heater is equipped with a high limit switch. In the
event that the temperature of the heater approaches
an unsafe operating temperature, this switch will shut
down the pellet feed, which will eventually shut down
the unit. If this happens, it is important to fi nd out why
the unit overheated. Contact your local dealer.
LOW LIMIT SWITCH:
This switch will automatically shut down the heater if
the fi re goes out.
BLOWER OVER-RIDE SWITCH:
Your heater is equipped with a convection blower
that circulates hot air into your room. This switch will
automatically turn the blower on, when the tempera-
ture at the back of the fi re box reaches a certain
temperature.
The blower can cycle from your desired
setting to maximum speed depending on the feed
rate. When the heater cools back down, the blower
will return to the initial setting.
VACUUM SWITCH:
This switch will sense lack of air fl ow through the
heater and shut down the pellet feed. This lack of
fl ow could be caused by a blocked vent.
POWER FAILURE:
In the event of a power failure, the heater will shut
down. Once power is restored, the heater will re-
start, unless the convection air temperature has gone
above the high limit switch setting. If this happens,
contact your local dealer.
