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 BGD42 to the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or the current CAN/CGA B149,
Installation Codes.
Installation practices vary from region to region and it is important to know the specifics that apply to your area, for example: in Massachusetts State:
• The fireplace damper must be removed or welded in the open position prior to installation of a fireplace insert or gas log.
• The appliance off valve must be a “T” handle gas cock.
• The flexible connector must not be longer than 36 inches.
• The appliance is not approved for installation in a bedroom or bathroom unless the unit is a direct vent sealed combustion product.
• WARNING: This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when installed within the commonwealth of Mas sachusetts.
Mobile home installation must conform with local codes or in the absence of local codes, install to the current standard for gas equipped mobile housing CAN/CSA ZA240 MH Series in Canada or the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard,
Title 24 CFR, Part 3280, or the Fire Safety Criteria for Manufactured Home Installations, Sites and Communities Standard ANSI/
NFPA 501A in the United States.
The fireplace and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig
(3.5 kPa). The fireplace must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
When the fireplace is installed directly on carpeting, vinyl tile or other combustible material other than wood flooring, the fireplace shall be installed on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth.
If the optional fan or blower is installed, the junction box must be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current
CSA C22.1 CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE in Canada or the
ANSI/NFPA 70 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE in the United
States.
GENERAL INFORMATION
FOR YOUR SATISFACTION, THIS FIREPLACE HAS BEEN
TEST-FIRED TO ASSURE ITS OPERATION AND QUALITY!
Maximum input is 28,500 BTU/hr for natural gas and 24,000
BTU/hr for propane. When the fireplace is installed at elevations above 4,500ft, and in the absence of specific recommendations from the local authority having jurisdiction, the certified high altitude input rating shall be reduced at the rate of 4% for each additional 1,000ft.
Maximum output for natural gas is 19,500 BTU/hr at an efficiency of 68.5% with the fan on, and 16,000 BTU/hr for propane at an efficiency of 67% with the fan on. The maximum
A.F.U.E. (annual fuel utilization efficiency) rating is 64% for natural gas and 61.5% for propane.
Minimum inlet gas supply pressure is 4.5 inches water column for natural gas and 11 inches water column for propane.
Maximum inlet gas pressure is 7 inches water column for natural gas and 13 inches water column for propane. Manifold pressure under flow conditions is 3.5 inches water column for natural gas and 10 inches water column for propane.
This fireplace is approved for bathroom, bedroom and bedsitting room installations and is suitable for mobile home installation.
No external electricity (110 volts or 24 volts) is required for the gas system operation.
Expansion / contraction noises during heating up and cooling down cycles are normal and are to be expected.
CARE OF GLASS, AND PLATED PARTS
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean plated parts. Buff lightly with a clean dry cloth. The BGD42 is factory equipped with tempered glass. The glass thickness is 3/16". Use only replacement glass available from your Napoleon dealer. DO
NOT SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS. Clean the glass after the first
10 hours of operation with a recommended gas fireplace 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.
Use only accessories designed for and listed with your specific fireplace.
Provide adequate ventilation air. Provide adequate accessibility clearance for servicing and operating the fireplace. Never obstruct the front opening of the fireplace.
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.
In order to avoid the possibility of exposed insulation or vapour barrier coming in contact with the fireplace body, it is recommended that the walls of the fireplace enclosure be 'finished', (i.e. drywall/sheetrock) as would any other outside wall of the home. This will ensure that clearance to combustibles is maintained within the cavity
.
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.
Objects placed in front of the fireplace must be kept a minimum of 48" away from the front face of the unit.
W415-0381 / E / 02.09.06

VENTING LENGTHS
Use only Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct
Temp or American Metal Amerivent venting components.
Minimum and maximum 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.
All outer pipe joints of these venting systems must be sealed using Red RTV Hight Temperature Sealant.
Wolf Steel, Simpson Dura-Vent, Selkirk Direct Temp and
American Metal Amerivent venting systems must not be combined.
A starter adaptor must be used and may be purchased from the corresponding supplier:

Amerivent
W175-0053 W175-0170 GDS924N
4DSC-N2 5DSC-N 4DSCB-N1
Direct Temp 4DT-AAN 5DT-AA 4DT-AAN
For vent systems that provide seals on the inner exhaust flue, only the outer air intake joints must be sealed using a red high temperature silicone (RTV). This same sealant maybe 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 fireplace flue collar which must be sealed using the black high temperature sealant Mill Pac.
When using Wolf Steel venting components, use only approved Wolf Steel rigid / flexible 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 TERMI-
NAL KIT GD412 or PERISCOPE KIT GD401 (for wall penetration below grade). With flexible venting, in conjunction with the various terminations, use either the 5 foot vent kit
GD420 or the 10 foot vent kit GD430.
These vent kits allow for either horizontal or vertical venting of the fireplace. FIGURES 3 & 5. The maximum allowable horizontal run is 20 feet. The maximum allowable vertical vent length is 40 feet. The maximum number of 5" vent connections is two horizontally or three vertically (excluding the fireplace and the air terminal connections) when using aluminum flexible venting.
VENTING
For optimum flame appearance and fireplace performance, keep the vent length and number of elbows to a minimum.
The air terminal must remain unobstructed at all times.
Examine the air terminal at least once a year to verify that it is unobstructed and undamaged.
Purge all gas lines with the glass door of the fireplace removed. Assure that a continuous gas flow is at the burner before re-installing the door.
Under extreme vent configurations, allow several minutes
(5-15) for the flame to stabilize after ignition.
Eight (8") inches is the minimum bend radius allowed for the 8" diameter flexible liner.
For optimum performance it is recommended that all horizontal runs have a 1 inch rise per foot when using
Napoleon flexible vent components.
A terminal shall not terminate directly above a sidewalk or paved driveway which is located between two single family dwellings and serves both dwellings. Local codes or regulations may require different clearances.
Do not allow the inside liner to bunch up on horizontal or vertical runs and elbows. Keep it pulled tight. A 1¼" air gap all around between the inner liner and outer liner is required for safe operation. Use a firestop when penetrating interior walls, floor or ceiling.
Minimum clearance to combustible construction from fireplace and vent surfaces:
sides, back, bottom and top of the unit 0 inch recessed depth 22 inches top, sides and bottom of the vent pipe 1 inch vent heat shield 1 inch
Horizontal runs may have a 0 inch rise per foot in all cases using SIMPSON DURA-VENT or NAPOLEON
RIGID OR FLEXIBLE venting components when venting as illustrated in Figures 3, and 4.
Only a clearance to combustibles of 1" all around the vent pipe is required.

FOR SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE FIREPLACE,
FOLLOW THE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
NOTE: Only a clearance to combustibles of 1" all around the vent pipe is required.
VERTICAL INSTALLATION
HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall. Having determined the air terminal location, cut and frame a hole in an exterior wall with a minimum opening as required. See Note above. (As an alternative to framing, a vent pipe shield may be installed, ensuring a 1" clearance to combustibles.
See Figure 16.) FIGURE 14
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 finished wall) and secure the shield through the opening to the interior wall. The final location of the vent pipe shield should maintain the required clearance to the
8" vent pipe / liner. (See note above). Do not fill this cavity
with any type of material. Apply a bead of caulking all around and place a firestop spacer over the vent shield to restrict cold air from being drawn into the room or around the fireplace. Ensure that both spacer and shield maintain the required clearance to combustibles. Once the vent pipe / liner is installed in its final position, apply sealant between the pipe / liner and the firestop spacer.

FIGURE 16
This application occurs when venting through a roof. Installation kits for various roof pitches are available from your Napoleon dealer. See Accessories to order the specific kit required.
1. Determine the air terminal location, cut and frame 10 inch openings in the ceiling and the roof to provide the minimum 1 inch clearance between the fireplace pipe / liner and any combustible material. Try to center the 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 MATERIAL. A vent pipe shield will prevent any materials such as insulation, from filling up the 1" air space around the pipe. Nail headers between the joist for extra support.
2. Apply a bead of caulking (not sup-

W415-0381 / E / 02.09.06
RESTRICTING VERTICAL VENTS
Vertical terminations may display a very active flame. As this appearance is not desirable, the vent exit must be restricted using restrictor plate, W500-0205. This reduces the velocity of the exhaust gases, slowing down the flame pattern and creating a more traditional appearance.
Remove the two screws on either side of the exhaust collar inside the firebox. Install the plate as shown. Replace the screws.
Proceed once the vent installation is complete.
1. Move the fireplace into position and secure using the nailing tabs and/or secure to the floor through the ¼"diameter holes located at either end of the base.
2. Route a 3/8" N.P.T. black iron gas line, 1/2" type-L copper tubing or equivalent to the fireplace.
3. For ease of accessibility, an optional remote wall switch or millivolt thermostat may be installed in a convenient location. Route 2-strand (solid core) millivolt wire through the electrical hole located at the bottom left side of the unit.

2. Keep the control compartment, logs, burner, air shutter opening and the area surrounding the logs clean by vacuuming or brushing, at least once a year.
MAINTENANCE
3. Check to see that all burner ports are burning. Clean out any of the ports which may not be burning or are not burning properly.
4. Check to see that the pilot flame is large enough to engulf the thermocouple and thermopile and reaches toward the burner with the third jet.
5. Replace the cleaned logs.
6. Check to see that the main burner ignites completely on all openings when the gas knob for the burner is turned on. A 5 to 10 second total light-up period is satisfactory. If ignition takes longer, consult your Napoleon dealer / distributor.
7. Check that the gasketing on the sides, top and bottom of the door is not broken or missing. Replace if necessary.
Adjust the pilot screw to provide properly sized flame. Turn in a clockwise direction to reduce the gas flow.

SYMPTOM PROBLEM TEST SOLUTION
Pilot goes out while standing;
Main burner is in
'OFF' position.
Flames are consistently too large or too small.
Carboning occurs.
Gas piping is undersized.
Unit is over-fired or underfired.
- turn on all gas appliances and see if pilot flame flutters, diminishes or extinguishes, especially when main burner ignites. Monitor appliance supply working pressure.
- check if supply piping size is to code. Correct all undersized piping.
- check pressure readings:
Inlet pressure can be checked by turning screw (A) counter-clockwise 2 or 3 turns and then placing pressure gauge tubing over the test point. Gauge should read 7" (minimum 4.5") water column for natural gas or 13" (11" minimum) water column for propane. Check that main burner is operating on "HI".
Outlet pressure can be checked the same as above using screw (B).
Gauge should read 3.5" water column for natural gas or 10" water column for propane. Check that main burner is operating on "HI".
AFTER TAKING PRESSURE READINGS, BE SURE TO TURN
SCREWS CLOCKWISE FIRMLY TO RESEAL. DO NOT OVERTORQUE.
Leak test with a soap and water solution.
Flames are very aggressive.
Door is ajar
Venting action is too great.
- fit door assembly into the lower support brackets and secure the four door latches.
-restrict vent exit with restrictor plate, W500-0205 .
Main burner flame is a blue, lazy, transparent flame.
Blockage in vent.
Incorrect installation.
- remove blockage. In extremely cold conditions, ice buildup may occur on the terminal and should be removed as required.
- refer to Figure 23 to ensure correct location of storm collars.
Carbon is being deposited on glass, logs or combustion chamber surfaces.
Air shutter has become blocked
Flame is impinging on the logs or combustion chamber.
White / grey film forms.
Sulphur from fuel is being deposited on glass, logs or combustion chamber surfaces.
Remote wall switch is in "OFF" position; main burner comes on when gas knob is turned to "ON" position.
Wall switch is mounted upside down
Remote wall switch is grounding.
Remote wall switch wire is grounding.
Faulty valve.
- ensure air shutter opening is free of lint or other obstructions.
- check that the logs are correctly positioned.
- open air shutter to increase the primary air.
- check the input rate: check the manifold pressure and orifice size as specified by the rating plate values.
- check that the door gasketing is not broken or missing and that the seal is tight.
- check that both 5" and 8" vent liners are free of holes and well sealed at all joints.
- check that minimum rise per foor has been adhered to for any horizontal venting.
- clean the glass with a recommended gas fireplace glass cleaner.
DO NOT CLEAN GLASS WHEN HOT.
If deposits are not cleaned off regularly, the glass may become permanently marked.
- reverse.
- replace.
- check for ground (short); repair ground or replace wire.
