    Napoleon GS3500-N missing valve bracket

    I moved into a house with a non-functional Napoleon GS3500 Natural Gas freestanding stove. The previous owner had a bad valve and instead of replacing it, just pulled the valve (along with its brackets) and never replaced it. I really would like to get this working rather than replacing the...

    Napoleon 1150 cookstove

    Wondering if any users of this stove can tell me: can you load wood through the trivets, like the cookstove my grandparents had? Or, are you looking down onto a baffle, or something< I've called Napoleon and a seller of this stove, who has it crated up; neither could give an answer. It's a...

    Low limit thermodisk question

    I have a Napoleon low limit thermal switch and I am looking to replace it. Can anyone tell me the temperature range for W690-0002? It fits a GZ552 fan kit or GZ550 fan. I think it's a 125/20 but I am not positive. Thanks in advance for the help!
