Installation Notes

Frame the Ascent 36 to 35-1/2 in. W x 35 in. H x 16 in. D and vent it top or rear with Napoleon 4 in. / 7 in. direct vent components, following the vent tables and termination clearances in the installation manual. Supply natural gas at 4.5 to 7 in. w.c. or propane at 11 to 13 in. w.c., keep the mantel limits in the manual, and have a licensed gas technician install it. In New York City, direct vent gas fireplaces are installed under the NYC Fuel Gas Code by a licensed plumber with DOB filing where required, and the vent termination location usually decides feasibility.

Documentation

Frequently Asked Questions

Millivolt or electronic ignition?

Millivolt uses a standing pilot and runs without household power. Electronic ignition lights the pilot only when needed and uses the battery back-up during an outage.

How much heat does it make?

Napoleon lists the Ascent 36 at up to 18,000 BTU/h.

Is the vent kit included?

No. A Napoleon 4 in. / 7 in. direct vent kit is required and depends on whether you terminate through a wall or the roof.

Can it go in a bedroom?

Yes. Napoleon approves the Ascent for bedroom, bathroom and bed-sitting room installations, and it is certified for mobile homes.
