Installing It
Napoleon built-in grill heads drop into an island opening and need a non-combustible enclosure (masonry, brick, concrete board or a metal frame). In an island with combustible framing, use the matching Napoleon zero clearance liner. The island countertop must also be non-combustible. A licensed gas fitter should make the gas connection, and the lights need a grounded, GFI-protected outlet. Check the clearances in the owner's manual before you finalize the island drawing.
