Napoleon Elora GDS30 Direct Vent Hybrid Gas Stove
25,000 BTU/hr of gas input plus a built-in electric blower heater, behind glass on three sides. The Napoleon Elora GDS30 is a black direct vent hybrid gas stove for natural gas or propane, 18-1/4" wide, 42-3/4" high and 19-7/8" deep, built for Napoleon's Luminous log sets with flames rising from the front logs, LED ember bed lighting, a Proflame 2 remote, electronic pilot-on-demand ignition with battery backup and top or rear 4" / 7" venting, from $5,249, covered by Napoleon's President's Lifetime Limited Warranty.
Choose the Elora if you want a contemporary stove you can watch from three sides: Luminous logs whose flames rise from the logs themselves, an LED ember bed and a color accent light, and an electric heater that can run on its own or with the gas fire. It vents from the top or the rear, so it can sit close to an outside wall or run its pipe up through the roof.
It is not right for you if you want a stove that faces one way. The Elora shows its fire through glass on three sides, with Luminous logs whose flames rise from the logs themselves.
Specifications
The Elora is 18-1/4" wide, 42-3/4" high and 19-7/8" deep. Keep 12" to a combustible side wall, 5" to the back wall and 12" in a 45° corner; how high a combustible mantel, shelf or ceiling must be depends on whether it vents from the top or the rear (see section 3.10 on pages 31 and 32 of the installation manual). Furniture stays 48" from the front. On wood flooring it needs nothing underneath; on carpet, vinyl tile or another combustible floor it sits on a metal or wood panel the full width and depth of the stove. The vent pipe is 4" exhaust inside 7" intake, up to 20 ft horizontally or 40 ft vertically, and keeps 1" at the sides and bottom and 2" on top of horizontal runs, 1" all round on vertical runs.
How the Elora compares to the Napoleon Bayfield
The Bayfield GDS25 is Napoleon's traditional metallic black stove with one front glass, up to 24,500 BTU against the Elora's 25,000 BTU/hr of gas input plus its 5,000 BTU electric heater. The Elora starts from $5,249 before its log set; the Bayfield starts from $4,019. Pick the Elora for the three-sided glass, the Luminous log flames and the built-in electric heater.

Answers to common questions
What venting does the Elora need, and is it included?
The vent pipe and termination are sold separately; the wall firestop and vent shield come with the stove. It vents through 4" exhaust / 7" intake direct vent pipe from the top, or from the rear after a conversion, out through a wall, up through the roof, or up a masonry chimney on a 3" co-linear liner — up to 20 ft horizontally or 40 ft vertically. A rear-vent install takes a round wall terminal. Napoleon's GD-175 stove wall terminal kit includes its pipe, and Wolf Steel, Metal-Fab, BDM, Simpson DuraVent and Selkirk Direct Temp pipe is approved, the third-party systems each with the starter adaptor specified for it. We can put the vent package together for your run.

-
Required to complete the installation, purchased separately: Log Set - a Napoleon Luminous Oak or Luminous Birch log set with glowing embers and charcoal; the stove ships without logs and needs one set to run its log flames; Venting - 4" exhaust / 7" intake direct vent pipe and a wall or roof termination sized for your run, such as Napoleon's GD-175 stove wall terminal kit, which includes its pipe (see pg 11 in the installation manual); Gas Line - a 1/2" gas supply run to the stove's flex connector and shut-off valve by a qualified installer; Power - a grounded electrical outlet near the stove for its 3-prong plug; Floor Panel - on carpet, vinyl tile or another combustible floor other than wood, a metal or wood panel under the full width and depth of the stove; Securing Kit - in a manufactured (mobile) home the stove must be fastened in place with a stove securing kit.
-
Optional: The decorative back panels and the wall mount control — the stove runs without either of them.
How close can it sit to a wall, and what goes under it?
Keep 12" to a combustible side wall, 5" to the back wall and 12" in a 45° corner, and keep furniture 48" from the front. Wood flooring needs nothing underneath; on carpet, vinyl tile or another combustible floor the stove sits on a metal or wood panel covering its full width and depth. Mantel and ceiling heights above it differ for top and rear venting — see section 3.10 on pages 31 and 32 of the installation manual.
How does the hybrid heat work?
On natural gas or propane, a built-in blower heater adds about 5,000 BTU of electric heat when you switch it on from the remote, and the Napoleon logo on the front glows red while it runs. The gas fire itself is rated 25,000 BTU/hr input on natural gas and 24,000 on propane with top venting. You can run the gas fire, the electric heater, or both together.
Can I adjust the flame?
The gas flame runs at one fixed high setting. From the remote you turn the stove on and off, switch the Luminous log flames on or off, and turn the LED ember bed lights and the electric heater on or off. The three-sided LED accent light has its own switch at the back and cycles through colors or holds the one you pick.
Does it work in a power failure?
Yes. The stove plugs into a grounded outlet, and its Proflame 2 battery holder takes four AA batteries that keep the electronic ignition working when the power is out — set the holder's slider switch to ON. The pilot lights itself when you turn the stove on, so you never light it with a match. The electric heater and lights need house power.
Can it go in a mobile home, or run on propane?
Yes to both. It is approved for a permanently located manufactured (mobile) home where local codes allow, fastened in place with a stove securing kit. It ships for natural gas; choose Propane above and Napoleon's W175-10010236 conversion kit is added, installed by a qualified service agency.
Does buying online affect my Napoleon warranty?
No. Napoleon's President's Lifetime Limited Warranty covers the original purchaser who buys through an authorized Napoleon dealer and has the stove installed by a licensed, qualified installer; there is nothing to register, so keep your proof of purchase with the model and serial number. It covers the combustion chamber, heat exchanger, burner, logs and embers, ceramic glass (thermal breakage) and porcelain parts for as long as you own the stove, electrical and wearing parts for one year, and labour for the first year. The Torch Guys will help you with any claim.
