Napoleon

Single-family homes

Canadian manufacturer of furnaces, air conditioners and cold-climate heat pumps alongside its hearth products — a growing presence in northern-market replacement work.

What they make

Gas furnace

Covered in the simulator

The indoor half of most split systems outside the Sun Belt: burners and heat exchanger below, the A-coil above, the 24V control system inside.

The control side — door switch, transformer, board, blower, low-voltage fuse — is fully modeled as the sim’s indoor cabinet, and the guided flow applies on cooling complaints. Combustion-side diagnostics are on the roadmap.

Split system A/C (straight cool)

Covered in the simulator

Outdoor condenser plus an indoor furnace-and-coil or air handler — the most common machine in single-family homes and garden-style multi-family.

The whole sim is built on this machine: every wing of the board and the guided no-cool flow apply directly.

Heat pump (split)

Lessons carry over

A split system that also heats: one reversing valve decides which coil condenses. Everything a straight-cool split has, plus the O (or, on some brands, B) circuit and defrost.

The HEAT PUMP wing of the board works the reversing valve; the guided flow routes heat pumps to escalation until its playbook ships. The electrical side transfers one-for-one.

Tech support

Tech support here is the guided Copilot with your Napoleon info already loaded — one question at a time, evidence before parts, and everything you enter rides into the service report.

Model-number decoding here covers residential and multi-family split systems and package units, 5 tons and under — Napoleon equipment lives outside that scope, so the manufacturer’s literature leads on model specifics. The Copilot still loads the brand for a guided session.
