Why is my Napoleon NK22CK-L not getting hot enough?

  Michael MoralesAug 8, 2025
  If your Napoleon Grill isn't getting hot enough or the flame is low, several factors could be at play. First, ensure you're preheating the charcoal long enough—until it's covered with a light grey ash, typically about 20-25 minutes. Insufficient airflow can also cause this, so make sure the vents are open. Check the charcoal level and add more to the tray if it's low. Lastly, avoid opening the lid too often, as each opening causes the temperature to drop; try to keep the lid closed during cooking.

  Excessive flare-ups or uneven heat in your Napoleon Grill can often be traced back to a couple of key issues. Ensure you preheat the grill with the lid closed for about 20-25 minutes, spreading the coals evenly to establish a consistent base temperature. Another common cause is excessive grease and ash buildup in the ash/drip pan. Regularly cleaning this pan is crucial; avoid lining it with aluminum foil, and consult the cleaning instructions for proper maintenance.

Why is “paint” peeling inside my Napoleon NK22CK-L Grill lid?

  Shannon SimpsonAug 16, 2025
  If you notice what appears to be paint peeling inside the lid or hood of your Napoleon Grill, don't worry—it's likely not a defect. The lid's finish is porcelain and won't peel. What you're seeing is hardened grease that has dried into paint-like flakes. Regular cleaning will prevent this buildup. Refer to the cleaning instructions for guidance on how to properly maintain your grill.

Why is there low heat or low flame on my Napoleon NK22CK-L?

  Garrett YoungAug 20, 2025
  Low heat or flame on your Napoleon Grill can occur due to several reasons: improper preheating, insufficient airflow, low charcoal levels, or frequently opening the lid. To address this, allow the charcoal to burn until covered with a light grey ash, which usually takes 20-25 minutes. Ensure the vents are open and add more charcoal to the charcoal tray if needed. Cook with the lid closed, as opening it causes temperature drops and extends cooking times.

  Excessive flare-ups or uneven heat on your Napoleon Grill can be caused by improper preheating or excessive grease and ash buildup in the ash/drip pan. To resolve this, preheat the grill with the lid closed for 20-25 minutes, ensuring the coals are spread evenly. Regularly clean the ash/drip pan, and do not line the pan with aluminum foil. Refer to cleaning instructions for more details.

Why does the 'paint' appear to be peeling inside the lid of my Napoleon NK22CK-L?
- S
  sarahmayAug 29, 2025
  The 'peeling paint' inside the lid of your Napoleon Grill is likely hardened grease buildup, not a defect in the porcelain finish. Regular cleaning will prevent this, as the grease dries into paint-like shards that flake off. Please refer to the cleaning instructions.
