Napoleon 1100C, Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

8

W415-0512 / B / 11.15.05

In the United States:

While it is not required, it is rec-

ommended that a chimney liner be installed that is con-

tinuous from the insert to the top of the chimney, particu-

larly when the insert is installed in a basement. For this

type of connection, use the "In Canada" installation instruc-

tions above.

In the United States, continued:

If a continuous liner is not installed, a "direct flue connec-

tion" must be made. The direct flue connection requires a

non-combustible connector that extends from the insert

into the chimney flue liner and also that the installed flue

cover be sealed below the entry point of the connector to

prevent dilution of combustion products in the chimney flue

with air from inside the house. Cap the top of the chimney

using an approved rain cap.

1401 INSERT MODEL

An optional low clearance flue connector is available to

facilitate hook up into a tight fitting fireplace. Consult your

local dealer for details.

The following installation requirements must be observed

when installing solid fuel burning inserts into factory built

fireplaces.

1.

 The factory built fireplace must be listed per UL 127 or

ULC S610.

2.

 Clearances to any combustible material surrounding

this insert as identified in Figure 10 must be followed.

These clearance requirements supersede any pre-exist-

ing facing material clearances listed for the factory built

fireplace.

3.

 Installation must include a full height listed chimney

liner meeting HT requirements (2100°F) per 1777 (U.S.) or

ULC S635 (Canada). The liner must be securely attached

to the insert flue collar and the chimney top.

4.

 Means must be provided to prevent room air passage to

the chimney cavity of the fireplace. This may be accom-

plished by sealing the damper area around the chimney

liner, or sealing the fireplace front.

5.

 The air flow within and around the fireplace shall not be

altered by the installation of the insert (i.e. no louvres or

cooling air inlet or outlet ports are blocked), unless specifi-

cally tested as such for each factory built fireplace manu-

facturer and model line. (Note - using a louvred face plate

(surround) complies with this requirement)

6.

 Alteration of the fireplace in any manner is not permitted

with the following exceptions;

a. external trim pieces which do not affect the operation

of the fireplace may be removed providing they can be

stored on or within the fireplace for reassembly if the

insert is removed.

b. the chimney damper may be removed to install the

chimney liner.

7.

 Circulating air chambers (i.e. in a steel fireplace liner or

metal heat circulator) shall not be blocked.

8.

 Means must be provided for removal of the insert to

clean the chimney flue.

9.

 Inserts that project in front of the fireplace must be sup-

plied with appropriate support means.

10.

 A permanent metal warning label must be attached to

the back of the fireplace stating that the fireplace must be

restored to its original condition for safe use without the

insert.

Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bearings,
causing irreparable damage. Care must be taken to pre-
vent drywall dust from coming into contact with the
blower or its compartment. Any damage resulting from
this condition is not covered by the warranty policy.

Use of the blower increases the output of  heat.

Provisions have been made on the stove to install an op-

tional blower kit (EP62-1) that comes complete with a vari-

able speed switch to turn the blower on and off, as well as

adjusting the blower speed. An optional thermostatic sen-

sor control kit, EP36, to thermally activate the blower is

also available.

Note: if the optional blower ( EP62-1) is installed,  the
blower guard (W320-0011) 

must

 be installed. This guard

is available from your Napoleon dealer.

Attach the mounting bracket to the

blower assembly. Then attach the

mounting bracket to the back of your

stove, push on the variable speed knob

and plug into any grounded electrical

outlet.

The 1401 insert comes equipped with two blowers, while

the 1101 has one blower. These blowers are thermally ac-

tivated. Depending on the intensity of the fire, the blowers

will start 15-30 minutes after lighting. The heat sensor for

the 1401 is located on the right hand side of the unit and

the 1101 has a heat sensor located at the back on the

blower access door. When first starting the fire, the sensor

may be impeded by a large log or an unevenly burning fire,

causing the blowers to cycle on and off. To control this,

either build your fire up evenly or turn down the blowers

until the right side of the firebox is hot.

1.

Turn off all electrical power to the

insert. Remove the glass door and

set aside in a safe place.

2.

 Remove the top right side bricks

from inside the firebox, 4-#7's and

2-#2's. Then remove the rest of the

side and back bricks from the right

side of the 1101 insert. It is not nec-

essary to remove the bottom bricks.
