Napoleon Elevation X 42" Direct Vent Gas Fireplace

A larger fireplace doesn't simply generate more heat; it transforms the way a room looks and feels. 

The Napoleon Elevation X 42" Direct Vent Gas Fireplace features an expansive viewing area, impressive heating performance, and extensive customization options that make it an exceptional centerpiece for spacious living areas and luxury home designs.

Designers, contractors, and homeowners who need a fireplace with genuine presence will find the 42" model hits a different level entirely. 

Napoleon Elevation X 42": Direct Vent Power for Larger Living Spaces

Heat output on this model reaches up to 45,000 BTUs, a meaningful step above the 36" version and well suited to larger rooms that need more than ambient warmth. The heat-circulating blower distributes that output efficiently, and the optional Dynamic Heat Control PLUS System takes things further by directing heat to specific zones throughout the home, even during power outages.

The ENDLESS EMBERS electric ember bed fills the firebox floor beneath the log set with modulating, glowing embers visible from every angle. Combined with the clean face design and a full-view firebox flame, the visual result is immersive. The eFIRE Remote App and included physical remote handle everything from flame height to blower speed, all from a single interface.

Personalizing the Elevation X 42"

One of the defining advantages of the Napoleon Elevation X 42" is the level of design flexibility it offers. Nearly every visible element can be customized. This lets you create a fireplace that feels fully integrated with your home's architecture and interior style.

Brick kit selection then shapes the firebox interior itself. MIRRO-FLAME panels create a sense of depth, making the flame appear larger and more layered. Herringbone and standard patterns across multiple color palettes allow the interior to be aligned with surrounding stonework, tile, or architectural finishes. Front and trim choices complete the picture, with combinations across three front styles and four trim finishes giving considerable range.

FAQs

How does the Elevation X 42" differ from the 36" model?

The primary differences are firebox width, viewing height, and BTU output. The 42" model offers a wider flame view at 42" across and 37-1/8" high, along with 45,000 BTUs compared to 37,000 on the 36" version, making it better suited to larger rooms.

Is the eFIRE Remote App included with purchase?

The physical remote control is included. The eFIRE Remote App is a free companion application that replicates the remote's full functionality on a mobile device. It covers flame modulation, blower control, split-flow adjustment, and ember bed lighting.

Can the decorative brick kit be changed after installation?

Brick kit selection is made at the time of purchase. Post-installation changes are not straightforward and may require professional involvement. Choosing the right kit upfront, in coordination with the room's overall finish palette, is the most practical approach.
