Napoleon Luminex 65: a wall fireplace with a choice of viewing sides
The Napoleon Luminex 65 is a 65 inch electric fireplace for a framed wall. You can set it up with the fire visible from the front only, around a corner, or on three sides. A screen shows the flames in colors like orange, blue, and purple. You can change the color of the glowing bed below them and the light above. Speakers add crackling fire sounds.
It needs no gas line and no chimney. It provides up to 10,000 BTU of heat. Run the flames with or without heat. It comes with a remote. You can also run it from your phone with the Napoleon Home app or by voice through Google Home or Alexa. Beach Fire Logs and the Woodland Kit come in the box. On the page you can add birch logs, mineral rocks, glass beads, a wall mounted controller, and more. Napoleon backs it with a 5 year warranty. Want another look?

FAQ
Does the Napoleon Luminex give off real heat?
Yes. Beyond its 65 in LCD flame display, the Luminex produces up to 10,000 BTU (3 kW) of fan-forced heat — meaningful supplemental warmth for the room it is in, with the flame visuals usable year-round without heat.
How much electricity does the Luminex use?
At its maximum 3 kW heat setting it costs roughly 40–50 cents per hour at average U.S. electric rates. Running the flame display alone uses only a small fraction of that, similar to a large TV.
Does the Luminex need venting or a gas line?
No venting, no chimney, no gas line. It is a fully electric built-in, which is why electric fireplaces like this can be installed in condos, basements, and bedrooms where gas venting is impractical.
How is the Luminex installed?
It is designed to be built into a framed wall: minimum framing is 65.06 in wide x 25.88 in high x 12.50 in deep. Hardwired electrical supply should be planned with your electrician to support the 3 kW heater.
What makes the Luminex different from other electric fireplaces?
Its flame effect is rendered on a 65 x 16.80 in LCD panel rather than projected mist or mirrors, giving a range of flame styles and scenes you can switch to match the mood — something neither gas nor conventional electrics offer.
What is the warranty on the Luminex?
Napoleon covers the Luminex 65 LCD (NEFL65LCD-3SV) with a 5-year limited warranty — among the longest in their electric lineup — and it ships from us with full factory coverage as an authorized dealer.
Can you plug the Luminex into a regular wall outlet?
Plan on a dedicated circuit. As a built-in with up to 3 kW of heat output, the Luminex should be wired in by an electrician as part of the installation rather than run from a shared household outlet — though the flame display itself draws very little power.
