Napoleon Galaxy 62" Outdoor Gas Fireplace
60,000 BTU/hr on natural gas, or on propane with Napoleon's conversion kit, from a 304 stainless steel firebox with a 62-1/16" by 20" viewing area. The Napoleon Galaxy 62" is a built-in outdoor gas fireplace for a patio or yard. It frames into an enclosure 67" wide, 40-1/2" high and 17" deep, ships with a clear glass ember bed, a glass wind guard and multi-colour LED lighting, and lights by electronic ignition from the wall switch that comes with it. It is priced from $5,139, with Napoleon's 5 Year Limited Warranty.
Choose the Galaxy 62" if you want a long, low ribbon of fire built into an outdoor wall, kitchen or pillar, with lighting you can change from night to night, and a look you can change later with Woodland media, glass beads, glass embers or a high definition birch, oak or driftwood log set.
It is not right for indoor use or for a fully closed room — it is an outdoor appliance, and any shelter it sits in must stay at least 30 percent open. It is also not a heater: Napoleon certifies it as a decorative outdoor appliance. And it is not freestanding — it has to be built into a framed enclosure at least 72" tall with a non-combustible finish around the opening and a hard-wired 120 V supply, and it is not waterproof, so it should not go where water runs or pools.
Specifications
The framed opening is 67" wide, 40-1/2" high and 17" deep; the fireplace itself is 66-9/16" wide, 40-1/8" high to the top of its standoffs and 15-15/16" deep. The enclosure must be at least 72" tall from the bottom of the fireplace, with the ceiling no lower than that. Combustible framing may touch the standoffs at the sides, finishing material keeps 1" from the back and 1/4" from the sides, and any finish over the face within 14" above the opening and 3-1/4" beside it must be non-combustible. Mantel clearance depends on the mantel's depth and on whether the screen kit is fitted — see the table on page 22 of the installation manual. Keep furniture at least 4 feet from the front.
The Galaxy 62" vs. the see-through model and the other widths
The Galaxy 62" See-Through is this fireplace built with the see-through conversion kit, so the fire shows from both sides and the framed depth drops to 15-15/16". It is priced from $5,978; this single-sided model is from $5,139. The Galaxy 50" and 74" are rated 50,000 and 70,000 BTU/hr and priced from $4,619 and from $6,189.

Where can the Galaxy be installed?
Outdoors only — on a patio or in a yard, never indoors or inside the warm-air envelope of a house. A sheltered spot is best, because direct wind makes the flame erratic. It can sit under an overhead cover with no more than two side walls, or under a cover with three walls as long as at least 30 percent of the perimeter stays permanently open — a covered patio, a gazebo or an outside wall of the house all work. Keep furniture at least 4 feet from the front.
Can the Galaxy run on propane as well as natural gas?
Yes. It ships for natural gas; choose Propane above and Napoleon's conversion kit (W175-10003379) is added to your order, and a qualified service technician fits its regulator and orifices. On propane it runs from a 20 lb or 30 lb cylinder (not included), which always stays outside any structure the fireplace is in, or from a hard-piped propane line. It is rated 60,000 BTU/hr on either gas, up to 4,500 ft.
Does the Galaxy need a chimney or vent pipe?
No vent is required. If you want more freedom in how the enclosure is built, Napoleon's optional Prestige Heat and Exhaust Management Kit carries heat and exhaust out of the enclosure through 6" B-vent, rising at least 36" — it has to be fitted during installation, so decide on it before the enclosure is built.
How do I protect the Galaxy from rain and weather?
The firebox is 304 stainless steel and drains water through holes along its sloped front, but the fireplace is not waterproof: the enclosure must be finished with every joint sealed, and it should not go where water runs or pools. Between uses, cover the opening — the optional brushed stainless weather cover hangs over the front, and a micro switch keeps the fire off while it is on.
Can I put a mantel above the Galaxy?
Yes. How high a combustible mantel has to sit depends on how deep it is, and on whether the screen kit is fitted — see the table on page 22 of the installation manual. Napoleon recommends a non-combustible mantel. You can also send us your mantel depth. We're here to help!
Does buying from The Torch Guys affect my Napoleon warranty?
No. The Torch Guys is an authorized Napoleon dealer, so Napoleon's 5 Year Limited Warranty applies in full, and we file claims with Napoleon for you. The stainless steel components are covered for five years; electrical parts, wearable parts such as the gas valve and logs, and the labour are covered for the first year. Coverage starts on the installation date, for a fireplace installed in the United States or Canada.
