Napoleon Ascent™ X 42 Direct Vent Gas Fireplace

The Ascent™ X 42 takes Napoleon's best-selling firebox and adds a wider, cleaner-faced viewing area, the NIGHT LIGHT™ glow that keeps the fireplace looking alive with the burner off, and a remote as standard. Sealed direct-vent combustion means it installs almost anywhere in a NYC apartment, Long Island home or New Jersey build.

Key Features

  • Up to 30,000 BTU/h with flame and heat adjustment
  • NIGHT LIGHT™ included for an ambient glow with the flame off
  • Remote control included (thermostatic on/off with digital screen)
  • Blower kit included, variable speed with thermostatic control
  • PHAZER™ log set and standard safety barrier included
  • Top or rear 5" / 8" direct venting for flexible placement
  • President's Limited Lifetime Warranty

Choosing Your Configuration

Ignition & Fuel Type above is required and determines the factory unit you receive. Millivolt uses a standing pilot and runs without electricity; Electronic uses an intermittent pilot for higher efficiency. Interior Panels and Decorative Front are optional. The firebox ships with a painted black interior and the standard safety barrier.

A direct vent kit is required to complete this installation and is sold separately. The correct kit depends on whether you terminate through a wall or the roof. Surrounds, finishing trim, media kits and heat-management accessories are optional.
