Napoleon High Definition 81 See Thru Direct Vent Gas Fireplace
The Napoleon High Definition See-Through Gas Fireplace redefines versatility, offering one of the most dynamic ranges of firebox design options available in a see-through fireplace. Its clean-faced, understated surround keeps the focus where it belongs—on the fire itself—creating a refined and timeless presentation.
Choose a rustic, traditional look with beautifully hand-painted PHAZER™ logs, paired with a split burner that produces rich, yellow dancing flames. For a more contemporary aesthetic, opt for the Topaz crystalline ember bed, a sleek burner design, or the natural texture of the Mineral Rock media burner, each delivering a distinctly modern feel.
Designed to serve as a stunning focal point for two adjoining spaces, the High Definition fireplace also features a dual NIGHT LIGHT™ system that softly illuminates the ember bed and firebox. This gentle glow adds ambiance to the room even when the fire is not in use.
With exceptional flame views, customizable styling, and the ability to enhance two rooms at once, the High Definition fireplace delivers a beautifully balanced blend of sophistication, performance, and visual impact.
