NAPOLEON waterfalls are manufactured under the strict Standard of the world recognized ISO 9001-2008 Quality Assurance Certificate. NAPOLEON products are designed with superior components and materials, and are assembled by trained craftsmen who take great pride in their work. Every component is thoroughly inspected by a qualified technician before packaging and shipping to ensure that you, the customer, receive the quality product you expect from NAPOLEON.
indoor air quality Your new NAPOLEON waterfall will dramatically improve the indoor air quality in your home. The waterfall is a natural humidifier which helps alleviate dry skin and allergies. This is extremely beneficial in dry climates and also cold climates where forced air furnaces dry the air. The waterfall also cleans the air by attracting contaminants. Moving water attracts airborne particles, such as dust, pet dander, pollen and other pollutants.
water Water is perhaps the most critical component in the waterfall. Dirty or contaminated water will quickly cause operational problems with your waterfall. House water must be softened and filtered if the unit is to be connected to the water supply. RO (Reverse Osmosis) water will give the best results, and require the least amount of maintenance. If the unit is not being connected to the house supply, distilled bottled water is recommended.
INSTALLATION The framing dimensions are included in the framing specifications drawing. The unit is designed to be installed after drywalling. For added protection water resistant drywall (green board) or cement board are recommended in the vicinity of the fountain. The fountain is designed to be attached to the studs over the drywall along both vertical sides of the fountain using drywall screws. This will leave a basically flush surface to trim over. Leak test the waterfall before fully enclosing.

If tiling, use waterproof cement board as a backer, available at any building centre. Cut the cement board to the size of your existing stainless steel panel. Ensure that the tiles can be used in a wet environment.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE The waterfall should be drained and cleaned every 3-4 months, possibly more depending on the quality of the water. The waterfall surface can be cleaned using a warm soap and water mixture. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners on the surface of the stainless steel panel or it will permanently scratch the surface. Any wiping motion should be done in the direction of the grain.
TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Water not flowing. Possible Causes Solution Pump not plugged in. Plug pump into nearest GFI protected receptacle. Insufficient water level. Add water to recommended level. Pump must be submerged by 1-2” at all times. Water flow control valve turned off. Turn valve to on position. Sediment filter plugged. Replace filter. Pump is “vapour-locked”. The pump may have an air bubble in it, preventing it from pushing water through.
Problem An odour emitting from the waterfall. Possible Causes Solution Dirty or contaminated water. See Water section in manual. Bacterial build up in stagnant water. Keep the waterfall running at all times, to keep the water moving. Ensure the ultraviolet-light (optional) is working. See Water section in manual. An addivitve such as “Fountec” manufactured by McGrayel, or hyrdrogen peroxide may be added to the water. See Water section in manual for complete details.

WATERFALL SURFACE INSTALLATION The stainless steel panel provided with WF6, WF9, and WF18 is installed simply by sliding the top of the panel under the retaining bracket at the top of the waterfall, and pushing it high enough to slip over the bottom support brackets. The welded brackets that protrude at an angle from the waterfall housing, merely provide pressure to the panel to prevent it from bowing. The optional acrylic panel can be placed in front of the stainless steel panel in the same manner.
