Napoleon Vector 74" Linear Direct Vent Gas Fireplace
The Napoleon Vector 74" is a linear direct vent gas fireplace with MIRRO-FLAME porcelain reflective panels, multi-color LED ember lights, Night Light top lights, a ProFlame II remote and the eFIRE phone app included. It is rated 48,000 BTU/hr on natural gas, or 41,500 on propane with Napoleon's conversion kit, through a 76-3/4" by 18-5/8" view behind 5 mm ceramic glass and a black safety barrier screen — from $11,459 before the logs, glass or media you choose above. It vents through a 5" / 8" pipe off the top, frames 89-13/16" wide, and carries Napoleon's President's Lifetime Limited Warranty.
Choose it if you want a long, clean linear fire dressed your way — Standard Beach Fire or Birch logs, High Definition Birch, Driftwood or Oak, glass beads or glass embers in eleven colors, a Woodland kit or mineral rocks — with a remote and the eFIRE app to set the flame and the ember-bed color. It is approved for bedrooms and bathrooms, so it suits a smaller room as well as a living room.
It is not right for you if you want a traditional log fire. The Vector is a long, clean linear flame you dress your way, with the eFIRE app to set the flame and the ember-bed color.

Required to complete the installation, purchased separately: Burning Display - crushed glass embers, glass beads or a media kit; Venting - 5" / 8" direct vent pipe and a wall or roof termination sized for your run (see pg 14 in the installation manual); Enclosure - a framed, finished enclosure at least 91" tall from the base of the fireplace (see pg 28 in the installation manual); Non-Combustible Finish - brick, stone, tile or non-combustible board for 15-5/8" above and 7" either side of the opening; Electrical - a grounded 110 V supply, hard-wired to the fireplace; Gas Line - a 1/2" gas supply to the fireplace's shut-off valve.
-
Optional: A log set to sit on the burning display, a vertical or external wall venting package, heat management (Dynamic Heat Control, Dynamic Heat Control Plus, Ducted Heat Management or the Hot Air Distribution Kit), a power vent adaptor kit, a 5/8" finishing trim, the Wall Mount Control and the End Panel Kit — the fireplace operates fully without any of them.
What venting does the Vector 74" need?
It is a direct vent fireplace on a 5" / 8" pipe off the top of the unit. On natural gas it runs out through a wall or up through the roof, up to 20 ft horizontally and up to 40 ft vertically; on propane the horizontal run is shorter, up to 4-3/8 ft, and longer runs need a power vent. Use one brand throughout — Napoleon, Metal-Fab, BDM, Simpson Dura-Vent or Selkirk Direct Temp — and do not mix rigid and flexible pipe. Napoleon's 5" / 8" wall terminals are the GD422R-2 round terminal and the ST58U-1 Silhouette, with roof kits for pitched and flat roofs and GD420 / GD430 flexible vent kits. The vent run and termination are ordered separately and sized to your installation (see pg 14 in the installation manual).
Can I mount a TV above it?
Yes, with planning — add Napoleon's optional Dynamic Heat Control. It moves the heat away from the wall above the fireplace without a fan, so a TV, sound bar or artwork can go there, and it is installed with the fireplace rather than added after the wall is finished. Without it the wall above gets hot; the minimum TV clearances with a mantel are drawn on page 57 of the installation manual. Either way, stay within your TV maker's own temperature limits.
Where can it be installed?
Indoors, including bedrooms, bathrooms and bed-sitting rooms, and it is certified for mobile and manufactured homes where local codes allow (secured in place). It is rated to 4,500 ft, with the input reduced above that. Keep furniture and other objects at least 48" from the front, and do not run it below freezing.
What gas and electrical connections does it need?
A 1/2" natural gas or propane line to the fireplace's flex connector and shut-off valve, connected and tested before the wall is finished — natural gas at 4.5" to 7" w.c. inlet pressure, propane at 11" to 13" w.c. It is hard-wired to a grounded 110 V supply, and the 4 AA battery wall switch keeps the fire turning on and off in a power outage. It ships for natural gas and converts to propane with Napoleon's kit W175-0648, fitted by a qualified installer.
Does buying online affect my Napoleon warranty?
No. The combustion chamber, burner, logs, embers, rocks, ceramic glass and porcelain parts are covered for as long as you own the fireplace — parts free for the first 10 years, then at half of retail; valves, remotes and other electrical parts and the labour are covered for the first year. Coverage starts on the installation date.
