Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Napoleon Element 36-inch firebox supports dual voltage and works with either a standard 120V outlet or a hardwired 240V circuit. Plugging into 120V delivers up to 5,000 BTUs (1,450 watts) for rooms up to 400 sq. ft., while hardwiring to 240V unlocks up to 9,000–10,000 BTUs for rooms up to 800 sq. ft. Note that a dedicated 15-amp circuit is required regardless of which voltage you choose.

  • The unit measures 32 inches tall, 36 inches wide, and 11.25 inches deep. Minimum framing dimensions are 35.50 inches wide, 31.25 inches tall, and 11 inches deep. The self-trimming frame covers any gaps between the firebox and the opening, so no additional finishing materials are needed after installation.

  • Yes, the firebox is designed for year-round use because the flame and heat functions operate completely independently of each other. You can run the realistic flame display with the ambient top lighting without activating the heater, making it a decorative focal point even in warmer months.

  • The firebox features an adjustable, realistic flame effect over a hand-molded oak log set with a glowing ember bed. It also includes an ambient top light with 7 color settings (blue, yellow, red, orange, and combinations), which can be set to a single static color or a rolling color spectrum. Brick side panels inside the firebox complete the traditional hearth look.

  • The Napoleon Element 36-inch firebox comes with a 2-year limited warranty on electrical components and wearable parts, including the fan/heater, motors, switches, nylon bearing components, remote controls, and LED lights. Napoleon provides replacement parts free of charge during the warranty period, though light bulbs and fuses are explicitly excluded from coverage.
