WARNING! Glass embers may have sharp edges, wear safety glasses and gloves when handling. Do not change or substitute the glass embmer material provided with this appliance. If replacing, use only replacement glass embers available from your local authorized dealer / distributor.

WARNING! To avoid the possibility of burns, maintenance should be done only when the appliance is cool. Avoid unprotected contact with hot surfaces. Ensure burner is turned off. Turn gas off at source and disconnect the appliance before servicing. Clean the appliance in an area where cleaning solutions will not harm decks, lawns, or patios. Do not use flammable, corrosive or abrasive cleaners.

Note: Stainless steel tends to oxidize or stain in the presence of chlorides and sulfides, particularly in coastal areas and other harsh environments, such as the warm, highly humid atmosphere around pools and hot tubs. These stains could be perceived as rust, but can be easily removed or prevented. To provide stain prevention and removal, wash all stainless steel and chrome surfaces every 3-4 weeks or as often as required with fresh water and/or stainless steel cleaner.

Control Panel: The control panel text is printed directly on the stainless steel and with proper maintenance will remain dark and legible. To clean the panel, use only warm soapy water or stainless steel cleaner available from your Napoleon dealer. Never apply abrasive cleaners on any stainless surfaces, especially the printed portion of the control panel or the printing will gradually rub off.

WARNING! Hose: Check for abrasions, melting, cuts, and cracks in the hose. If any of these conditions exist, do not use the appliance. Have the part replaced by your Napoleon dealer or qualified gas installer.

Cleaning Inside The Appliance: While washing your appliance, be sure to keep the area around the burner and pilot assembly dry at all times.

WARNING! If the gas control is exposed to water in any way, DO NOT try to use the appliance. The gas control must be replaced.

Burner: The burner is made from heavy wall 304 stainless steel, but extreme heat and a corrosive environment can cause surface corrosion to occur. This can be removed with a brass wire brush. Inspect the burner at least annually for cracks, insect nests, excessive corrosion or any other damage. If the burner is damaged, it must be replaced with a burner specified by the manufacturer before the appliance is put into operation.

CAUTION! Beware of Spiders.

Napoleon GPFL48MHP - CAUTION! Beware of Spiders. - 1

Spiders and insects are attracted to the smell of propane and natural gas. The burner is equipped with an insect screen on the air shutter, which reduces the likelihood of insects building nests inside the burner but does not entirely eliminate the problem. A nest or web can cause the burner to burn with a soft yellow or orange flame or cause a fire (flashback) at the air shutter underneath the control panel. Other warning signs that may indicate a problem are:

  • Strong or unusual odor coming from the appliance.
  • Continued difficulty or delayed ignition.
  • Flame appears either very short or very long.
  • Flame only burns part way across the burner.
  • Excessive soot building up on the glass embers.

To clean the inside of the burner, it must be removed from the appliance: Remove the glass embers and examine the burner. If dirty, clean with a wire brush. Remove the screws that attach the glass embmer tray and the nuts from the bottom of the burner. Slide the burner back and up wards to remove.

Cleaning: Use a flexible venturi tube brush to clean the inside of the burner. Shake any loose debris from the burner through the gas inlet. Check the burner ports and valve orifices for blockages. Burner ports can close over time due to debris and corrosion, use an opened paperclip or a drill bit to clean them. The ports are easier to clean if the burner is removed from the appliance, but it can also be done with the burner installed.

Reinstallation: Reverse the procedure to reinstall the burner. Check that the valve enters the burner when installing. Replace the glass embers. When the appliance is put back in service, check the burner flame pattern with the image in the Operating the Patio Flame section to verify that the appliance is operating correctly.

Cleaning The Outer Appliance Surface: Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool on any painted, or stainless steel parts of your Napoleon Appliance. Doing so will scratch the finish. Exterior surfaces should be cleaned with warm soapy water. To clean stainless surfaces, use a stainless steel or a non-abrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direction of the grain. Over time, stainless steel parts discolor when heated, usually to a golden or brown hue. This discoloration is normal and does not affect the performance of the appliance

Napoleon GPFL48MHP - CAUTION! Beware of Spiders. - 4

WARNING! The appliance area must be clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Keep the ventilation opening of the cylinder enclosure free and clear of debris.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible CausesSolution
Low heat / Low flame when valve turned to high.For propane - improper lighting procedure.For natural gas - undersized supply line.Ensure lighting procedure is followed carefully.The valve must be in the off position when the tank valve is turned on. Turn tank on slowly to allow pressure to equalize. See lighting instructions.Pipe must be sized according to installation code.
Burners burn with yellow flame, accompanied by the smell of gas.Possible spider web or other debris.Thoroughly clean burner venturi. See general maintenance instructions.
Burner will not light with the igniter, but will light with a match.Dead battery / or installed incorrectly.Loose electrode wire or switch terminal wires.Improper gap at electrode tip.Replace with heavy duty battery.Repack that electrode wire is firmly pushed onto the terminal on the back of the igniter. Check that the lead wires from the module to the ignition switch (if equipped) are firmly pushed onto their respective terminals.The gap can be adjusted by bending the tip in or out. Until a spark is achieved.
Burner will not stay lit when control knob is released.Knob not being held in long enough.Too windy.Glass or debris in ignition area of the burner preventing thermocouple from being fully engulfed in flame.Dirty thermocouple or thermocouple connection.Faulty thermocouple or valve.Thermocouple must have time to heat up - hold the knob in for 30 seconds after the burner lights, then releaseUnit will shut down if winds are greater than 10mph (16km/h). Either locate to different area or use when it is less windy.Encsure there is no glass or other debris in ignition area, and that the small hole below the thermo-couple is unobstructed.Clean the thermocouple and clean the connection between the valve and thermocouple. Ensure the connection is properly tightened.Replace thermocouple and / or valve.
Humming regulator.Normal occurrence on hot days.This is not a defect. It is caused by internal vibrations in the regulator and does not affect the performance or safety of the gas heater.Humming regulators will not be replaced.
Burner output on "high" setting is too low. (Rumbling noise and fluttering blue flame at burner surface.)Lack of gas.Supply hose is pinched.Dirty or clogged orifice.Spider webs or other matter in venturi tube.Propane regulator in "low flow" state.Check gas level in propane cylinder.Reposition supply hose as necessary.Clean burner orifice.Clean out venturi tube.Encourage lighting procedure is followed carefully. All valves must be in the off position when the tank valve is turned on. Turn tank on slowly to allow pressure to equalize. See lighting instructions.
