Structural Safety for High-Heat Finishing

The Napoleon NCEX42 Non-Combustible Kit is a critical installation component designed specifically for the Napoleon Elevation 42 (EX42) gas fireplace series. This kit provides the required non-combustible backing needed when finishing your fireplace with materials such as tile, stone, or marble. By replacing standard combustible framing materials around the immediate perimeter of the firebox, this kit ensures that high temperatures do not pose a fire risk to the internal wall structure.

Precision Engineering for Elevation 42

As a factory-authorized accessory, the NCEX42 kit is precision-cut to match the exact dimensions of the Elevation 42 firebox opening. This ensures a seamless fit and a perfectly level surface for applying your final decorative facade. The materials used are engineered to resist warping or degrading under the intense thermal cycling common in high-output fireplaces, providing a stable foundation for your hearth’s design for years to come.
