Napoleon Elevation Electric 42-inch Built-In Electric Fireplace

Bring the depth and movement of a traditional fire into the home with the Napoleon Elevation Electric 42-Inch Built-In Electric Fireplace. Its deep firebox, tinted front glass, and triple-layer flame technology create a realistic display with flames that appear to grow from front to back and from the sides toward the center.

The included premium glowing split oak logs add warmth and natural detail to the firebox. Choose orange, yellow, or combined flame colors, then adjust the brightness, speed, and number of visible flame layers to create anything from a subtle background glow to a full, active fire presentation.

A modulating ember bed provides five natural color options, including scarlet, tangerine, red, dark orange, and yellow. Adjustable brightness, automatic color cycling, and a pulsing effect provide additional customization. Thirteen top-light colors add another layer of ambient illumination, while the tinted glass helps maintain flame contrast in brighter rooms.

Fireplace functions can be managed with the included premium remote control, the built-in control panel, or the Wi-Fi-enabled Napoleon Home app. Smart-home compatibility supports select Google Home and Alexa voice commands, while seven-day scheduling, favorite settings, thermostat adjustments, and lighting customization provide convenient everyday control. An optional wall-mounted controller is available separately.

The dual-voltage heater delivers up to 5,000 BTUs on 120 volts or up to 10,000 BTUs on 240 volts. ECO mode operates at half heat to reduce energy use, while BOOST mode provides maximum heat with increased blower speed for 30 minutes. Additional comfort features include blower-only operation, thermostat settings from 64°F to 82°F, heater lockout, open-window detection, and flame operation without heat for year-round enjoyment.

The Elevation Electric is designed for fully recessed built-in installation and requires no venting. It uses the same rough framing dimensions as compatible Napoleon Elevation and Elevation X gas fireplaces, allowing the opening to be framed before making the final decision between gas and electric.

The appliance measures approximately 44 13/16 inches wide by 39 5/16 inches high by 16 1/32 inches deep. The included one-piece black finishing trim measures approximately 46 3/8 inches wide by 40 3/8 inches high. Minimum framing dimensions are 45 3/4 inches wide by 39 9/16 inches high by 16 1/4 inches deep.

The fireplace operates on a dedicated 120- or 240-volt, 15-amp grounded circuit. Napoleon’s installation manual requires the unit to be hardwired by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable electrical codes. The Napoleon Elevation Electric NEFB42H-MF is intended for indoor use and is backed by a 5-year registered warranty. Always consult the current installation manual for complete framing, electrical, finishing, clearance, and safety requirements.
