Answers to common questions
Does it need a vent, a chimney or a gas line?
No. The Cineview is an electric fireplace and needs only power: plug it into a grounded 120 V outlet on a dedicated 15 A circuit, or have an electrician hard-wire it. Extension cords and power strips are not allowed.
What size opening do I frame for the 30"?
29-1/4" wide by 19-7/8" high, plus the thickness of the floor or mantel base, and 7-3/4" deep. Clearance to combustibles is 0" all round, including to a mantel directly above. Bring the power to the right side of the opening first, and keep insulation off the appliance - Napoleon recommends finishing the inside of the enclosure, with drywall for example. In a corner it needs 43-3/4" across the front and 30-13/16" along each wall.

How much heat does it give, and can I run it without heat?
The heater is 1,465 W, about 5,000 BTU/hr, with a thermostat you can set from 64°F to 82°F. ECO mode runs it at reduced output and Boost runs full heat with a faster fan for 10, 20 or 30 minutes. The flame and ember bed run with the heater off, and the heater can be locked out entirely, so you can use it year-round.
Do I need a trim kit, and which one?
No — the Cineview is finished and fully working without one. If you want one, the 5" black trim kit frames the opening around the fireplace. It has four sides and can also be installed as three-sided.
Where can it be installed?
Indoors only. It is approved for bedrooms and mobile homes and meets HUD standards for manufactured homes. Keep furniture, bedding and curtains 36" from the front, and do not use it outdoors or where it is exposed to the elements.
Is the warranty the same if I order it from you?
Napoleon covers the Cineview with a one-year parts warranty — heaters, motors, switches, the remote and the LED lights included — and labour is not covered. The Torch Guys is an authorized Napoleon dealer, so the full factory warranty applies, and if you ever need a part we file the claim with Napoleon for you. Keep your invoice and the model and serial number.
