Why does the pilot spark but not light on my Napoleon Oakville GDIX4N?
If the pilot sparks but won't light on your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace, first verify that the incoming gas line ball valve is 'open'. Also, ensure that the inlet pressure reading is within acceptable limits, not exceeding 13” W.C. (32.4mb). If you are using propane, check if the tank is empty and fill it if necessary. The pilot supply line may contain air, so repeat the ignition process several times or purge the pilot supply line. Ensure correct polarity of wiring of thermocouple (if equipped). Verify pilot assembly / valve are properly grounded. If equipped with a receiver, reset the program by holding the reset button on the receiver and wait for 2 beeps, then release after the second beep. Check the valve and replace if necessary, being careful not to overtighten the thermocouple.
Why are the flames very aggressive on my Napoleon Oakville GDIX4N?
If the flames on your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace are very aggressive, first ensure that the door is secured properly. If the venting action is too great, check to ensure the venting is properly sealed or restrict the vent exit with a restrictor plate. Note that restrictor plates are not available in all appliances.
Why is carbon being deposited on the glass of my Napoleon Oakville GDIX4N?
If carbon is being deposited on the glass, logs, rocks, media, or combustion chamber surfaces of your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace, it could be due to an improperly adjusted air shutter. Return the air shutter to the specified opening. Also, ensure the air shutter opening is free of lint or other obstructions.
Why won’t the lights or blower function on my Napoleon Indoor Fireplace?
If the lights or blower on your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace (if equipped) won’t function, first verify that the control module switch is in the 'I' position, which denotes 'on'. Also, check that the 'COM' switch is plugged into the front of the control module.
Why does white/grey film form on the glass of my Napoleon Indoor Fireplace?
A white or grey film on the glass is likely sulphur from the fuel being deposited. Clean the glass with a recommended gas fireplace glass cleaner, but be sure not to clean the glass when it is hot. If sulphur deposits are not cleaned off regularly, the glass may become permanently marked.
What to do if my Napoleon Indoor Fireplace smells of exhaust fumes and causes headaches?
If you smell exhaust fumes in the room or experience headaches, it's possible that the appliance is leaking exhaust fumes. First, check that the firebox glass door was properly reinstalled after cleaning. If the issue persists, turn off the appliance and contact a qualified technician.
What to do if my Napoleon Indoor Fireplace appliance won’t perform any functions?
If your appliance isn't working, check the breaker to ensure it's in the 'on' position. Also, if equipped, verify that the 3-position switch on the battery holder is in the remote position (middle). Finally, check the battery power and battery orientation in the battery holder and remote control to ensure they are operational.
What to do if venting action is too great on Napoleon Indoor Fireplace?
If your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace is experiencing venting action that is too great, check to ensure the venting is properly sealed or restrict the vent exit with a restrictor plate. Note that restrictor plates are not available in all appliances.
Why my Napoleon Indoor Fireplace appliance functions but does not respond to receiver / remote?
If your Napoleon Indoor Fireplace functions but doesn't respond to the receiver or remote, make sure the appliance is being operated by the same device that turned it on. Remote controls function if the appliance was turned on by remote. Receiver controls function if the appliance was turned on by receiver.
