Installation Notes
Frame the BL36-2 to 36-1/2 in. W x 39-3/8 in. H x 16 in. D and vent it with Napoleon 4 in. / 7 in. direct vent components per the installation manual. For a TV above, plan the clearances and consider Napoleon's LHAD or UHM heat management kits. Installation must be done by a licensed gas technician. 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.
