This feature not only enhances the visual appeal of the fireplace but also allows for customizable media options, including decorative glass, logs, or pebbles, giving homeowners the flexibility to create the ambiance they desire.

The GS 28-P and GS 28-N variants, on the other hand, offer a traditional look with modern efficiency. They boast a user-friendly electronic ignition system, ensuring reliable lighting every time. With adjustable flame settings, users can easily control the heat output, making it possible to create the perfect atmosphere for any occasion.

Moreover, all four models are designed with a high efficiency rating, making them an environmentally responsible choice. They are also equipped with Napoleon's advanced safety features, including a safety screen and automatic shut-off, ensuring peace of mind for families.
