Napoleon Vector 38 See Through: a gas fireplace shared between two rooms
The Napoleon Vector 38 See Through is a direct vent gas fireplace built into a framed wall between two rooms. See through means there is glass on both sides, so both rooms get the fire. The glass is 41 by 19 inches. Its linear fire is a wide, low band of flame. The ember bed has color lighting for a glow even without the fire. The fireplace is about 16 inches deep.
Order it for natural gas or propane. Direct vent means it needs no chimney. A sealed pipe through the wall or roof carries the exhaust out and brings fresh air in. It puts out up to 30,000 BTU, shared between the two rooms. Reflective panels and a remote control come with it. On the page you pick the log set: birch or beach fire. You can add glass embers, finishing trim, and more on the page. Napoleon backs it with its President’s Limited Lifetime Warranty. Want a wider fire? See the Napoleon Vector 50 See Through gas fireplace. The Napoleon Vector 38 See Through ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

Answer a few quick questions and we’ll show you the right kind of fireplace for your home or backyard, plus the models that fit.
Where will your fireplace go?
What kind of fire do you want outside?
How do you want it built?
Outdoor fireplaces come two ways: a finished piece you set in place, or a firebox that gets built into a wall.
How big a fireplace do you picture?
Measured by the width of the fire opening, or of the whole unit for ready-made pieces.
What kind of fire do you want?
Not sure yet? Pick “Help Me Choose” and we’ll ask two easy questions.
Do you have natural gas at home, or would you use a propane tank?
Which sounds most like you?
What type of unit do you picture?
Can a vent pipe go through an outside wall or the roof?
Gas fireplaces either vent outside (direct vent) or need no vent at all (vent-free).
What matters most to you?
How big is the space you want to heat?
Enter the square feet of the room, or of the open area the fire will warm.

What does see-through mean on the Vector 38 See-Through?
The LV38N2-1 has glass on both faces, so it mounts in a partition wall and presents its 40.75 x 18.62 in linear flame to two rooms simultaneously.
How thick a wall does the Vector 38 See-Through need?
Minimum framing is 53.81 in wide x 73 in high x 16.19 in deep — notably shallower than the single-sided Vector because the two-faced firebox omits the rear heat cavity. The unit is 53.31 x 41.19 x 16.19 in.
Does the Vector 38 See-Through need a chimney?
No — sealed direct venting to the roof or an exterior wall is what makes an interior-partition fireplace possible in the first place.
Do both sides of the Vector 38 See-Through get hot?
Yes — both glass faces exceed 400°F in operation. Safety barriers are fitted to each side, but apply the same child-and-pet caution in both rooms.
What is the running cost of the Vector 38 See-Through?
Around 0.30 therms of natural gas per hour at its 30,000 BTU maximum — about 45 cents hourly at average U.S. prices, warming two rooms from one burner.
Will the Vector 38 See-Through work without power?
Yes — its battery-backed ignition lights during outages, and the LHAD heat management needs no electricity to protect the walls above.
What warranty covers the Vector 38 See-Through?
Napoleon’s President’s Limited Lifetime Warranty comes standard, preserved in full through our authorized Napoleon dealer status.

Napoleon Gas Collection
Napoleon Gas Fireplaces
Get cozy with stylish gas fireplace solutions from Napoleon, designed to elevate the look and feel of any room in your home. Whether you’re looking for clean, contemporary linear designs, traditional styles that bring the campfire feel indoors, see-through models shared between two rooms, inserts for an existing wood fireplace, vented gas logs for a wood fireplace with a working chimney, or an outdoor fireplace for the patio, there’s a Napoleon gas fireplace to fit your needs, budget, and aesthetic. Browse the lineup by style below.
Napoleon Luxury Linear Gas Fireplaces
Napoleon’s flagship linear series — premium features in single-sided, see-through and three-sided Tall Bay formats.
Luxuria™ Series
Available Models: 50, 62 & 74 · See-Through: 50, 62 & 74 · Tall Bay (three-sided): 50 & 62
The Luxuria™ Series of linear gas fireplaces features a wealth of premium features like Napoleon’s patent-pending heat management and the safe-to-touch Glass Guard System, allowing it to be truly versatile for any home.
The Tall Linear Vector™ Series features all of the modern design you love with an even greater visual impact, more efficient use of fuel, and superior heat distribution.
The Tall Linear Vector™ with Luminous Logs rivals traditional fire with innovative technology, lower gas use, and year-round enjoyment with adjustable settings.
The Ascent™ Linear Premium Series is the ideal finishing touch for your home — add luxury to any room with your choice of hand-painted logs or glass crystals.
One flame shared between two spaces — or wrapped in glass on three sides. Luxuria, Vector, and Tall Linear Vector see-through models, and the three-sided Tall Bay Luxuria, are linked in their series cards above.
The Oakville™ Series transforms an old, inefficient masonry or prefab wood burning fireplace with a dual burner triple flame and Napoleon’s NIGHT LIGHT™ glowing even when the fire is off.
The Fiberglow™ Series pairs five ceramic fiber logs with a cast iron grate and glowing embers for the look of a log fire in your wood burning fireplace. A working chimney is required, and the included damper stop holds the damper partly open.
The Galaxy™ Series brings Napoleon’s contemporary linear flame outdoors — a modern outdoor gas fireplace with optional LED accent lighting and glass ember media.
The innovative triple-paned Glass Guard system keeps the exterior glass warm but safe to touch — suitable for homes with kids or pets, with no metal screen blocking the flame view.
Heat Management System
Control the flow of heat — direct warmth where it’s needed most, or divert it away from sensitive items like a TV mounted above the fireplace.
eFIRE App Control
Adjust flame height, blower speed, and LED accent lighting from your smartphone, with timers that can automatically turn the fireplace off.
Night Light™
A soft, ambient glow even when the flames are off — enjoy the cozy look of a fireplace year-round without the added heat.

A sauna turns your garden into a spa oasis. We debated it for a while, but after renovating our house, we pulled the trigger and bought a sauna from Norse Steam and Maya. She was always super responsive and helpful throughout the process. Don't kid yourself, getting a really nice sauna is not that easy. Sizing and heating need to be figured out, as does the building, but we have always had a helpful partner on our side. She never upsold us on anything we didn't need, and we got some nice freebies when the sauna was delivered. And now we can really enjoy every moment in our garden.

We purchased the 3-person sauna for our outdoor garden. We chose the cube sauna for the aesthetic and could not be happier.
I assembled by myself except for the 2 large panels (requires a few people). Instructions were good - took me two partial Saturdays to complete and a few hours to unpack and organize in advance of assembly. Had my elec. add a NEMA enclosure on the back for the controller and power for lights and a 2nd panel for the wireless control.
Customer service was excellent

Recently purchased the Finnmark one person after much research. Extremely happy with it and the ordering process. Maya was very responsive and helpful during the process and keeping us updated while we waited for shipment. There were several places I could have ordered this, but i chose Norse Steam based on the communication and customer service which was fantastic. The shipment was also excellent. The setup was pretty seamless for two people - but the best part is the sauna experience 10/10

Norse Steam, and specifically Maya, were extremely helpful as I was making the decision for our Sauna. I was able to get all of the necessary details to make a decision as construction was happening in my backyard to make space for it.
We absolutely love the CL7G. It is extremely comfortable for 6 people (can fit more less comfortably). The Thermory Spruce and Aspen in the interior smells great. The lighting is lovely. We paired the CL7G with the Harvia Spirit 10.5kw.

Had great experience shopping at Norse Steam for the new heater. They had very good deal, with rocks. Customer service was good, and responded very fast with my questions. Received the heater, and it looks good, and the quality seem to be great. Will install soon, and am very excited to start experiencing sauna the way it ment to be
thanks Norse Steam for flawless transaction - I got instant replies on my questions, received competitive price on the wood stove and got it delivered within two weeks!

Smoking Hot Tub!
I got the Norse Steam SaunaLife wood-fired hot tub, the S4N model, and its been seriously great. It heats up quicker than I expected, usually around an hour and a half, and once its hot, it stays that way for a good long while. The wood-fired system is simple to use, and honestly kind of fun.
The tub itself feels solid and well put together. The thermo-spruce exterior looks beautiful in person, and the fiberglass interior is smooth, deep, and easy to clean. Its the kind of setup that just works without a bunch of fuss, which I really appreciate.
Also, the team at Norse Steam was genuinely great to work with. Super helpful, quick to respond, and made the process really easy from start to finish. It felt like they actually cared that I was happy with it. The tub has totally become a go-to way to unwind, and I wouldnt change a thing.

Great sauna and great customer service
We purchased the Finnmark SD-1 sauna. Maya was extremely helpful with the purchase. We had an issue with the sauna not reaching the maximum temperature, and Maya connected us with the appropriate technician that explained how to correct the issue. The sauna now heats to the maximum temperature (170 degrees) in less than an hour, and it is a great unit. We are very happy with it, and we would definitely purchase from NorseSteam if we needed any other items.

Great products, outstanding service
This is a terrific stove from Harvia and is top quality, as youd expect from a reputable brand thats been in the sauna business for so long. Doing business with Norse Steam was also a pleasure. The order was processed quickly, communications from the company kept me up to date with processing and shipping, and everything arrived in perfect condition. Even scheduling the freight delivery for the stove and stones was a piece of cake. Everything went very smoothly and I will surely do business with them again in the future. Thanks for making it so easy
