The built-in Napoleon Series 500 BI32 grill combines precision engineering with elegant design. Designed to integrate seamlessly into any outdoor kitchen, it is the perfect starting point for those seeking a robust, reliable, and highly efficient solution for their outdoor spaces.
Its full 304 stainless steel construction and exclusive technologies, such as the JETFIRE™ ignition system or the shot-blasted WAVE™ grates, make this model an excellent investment for high-end residential projects, demanding amateur chefs, and professional settings that require consistency, safety, and style. Boasting a polished aesthetic and weather-resistant materials, it delivers sustained performance without compromising on design.
🔧 Power and Performance: 4 High-Efficiency Burners
The Napoleon Series 500 BI32 features a cooking system based on four stainless steel burners that reach a total output of 16 kW, allowing for rapid achievement of high temperatures and stable heat retention throughout the entire cooking session.
This configuration has been designed to provide uniform heat distribution across the entire grill surface, essential for searing large cuts of meat or cooking multiple foods simultaneously without experiencing temperature fluctuations. The robust combustion system is optimised to run on butane or propane gas at a 30 mbar pressure, ensuring clean, efficient, and controlled burning. The stainless steel burners offer corrosion resistance, resulting in a longer service life for the internal heating system, even in demanding climates or under intensive use.
🍖 Spacious Cooking Surface: Over 3,400 cm² of Usable Space
Designed to meet the needs of large families or sizeable groups, the main cooking area provides a generous space measuring 74.6 by 45.4 centimetres, offering a total of 3,432 cm². This ample area is more than sufficient for cooking entire racks of ribs, whole chickens, or multiple cuts of meat, vegetables, and sides at the same time.
Complementing this main area is a shot-blasted, adjustable stainless steel warming rack measuring 73 by 22.5 centimetres. This secondary rack allows you to keep cooked foods warm without losing texture or flavour, and it can also be used to warm bread or preheat other ingredients before moving them to the main zone. The smart layout of the cooking area enhances the flow of hot air and improves overall temperature control throughout the cooking chamber, enabling multiple cooking techniques with ease.
🌊 Shot-Blasted WAVE™ Stainless Steel Grates: Style and Signature Mark
The grates of the Napoleon Series 500 BI32 built-in grill are designed with an exclusive wave pattern, a hallmark feature of the brand known as WAVE™. Made of shot-blasted stainless steel with a thickness of 7.5 millimetres, these grates not only ensure exceptional durability but also optimise heat transfer to the food, creating attractive searing marks ideal for a professional presentation.
The wave shape is not just for show: it is intended to distribute heat more effectively and prevent small foods from falling below, reducing waste and making cooking safer. The shot-blasted surface improves wear resistance, facilitates cleaning, and requires minimal maintenance, allowing users to focus more on the grilling experience and less on post-cooking tasks.
⚡ Immediate Ignition with JETFIRE™ Technology
Ignition is carried out via the JETFIRE™ system, a Napoleon-exclusive technology that uses a directed pilot flame to safely and quickly light each of the main burners. When the ignition button is pressed, a nozzle produces an intense secondary flame that ignites the burner gas, ensuring a reliable start from the very first attempt.
This solution eliminates the annoying, repetitive clicking that often characterises standard piezoelectric ignitions. The system is designed to provide safety on each use, even in damp or windy conditions, offering extra peace of mind for the user. Thanks to this innovation, the grill is always ready to start cooking without delay and the need for external items like matches or lighters.
🛠️ Integrated Design for Professional Installation
One of the biggest advantages of the Napoleon Series 500 BI32 is its built-in design with a perimeter flange. This feature allows for a clean, custom fit into countertops, cabinets, or outdoor kitchen islands, achieving a seamless finish without visual interruptions. The perfect integration of this grill with other kitchen modules not only enhances the overall aesthetic but also adds functionality by reducing dead spaces or areas that are difficult to clean.
This design is intended for high-end outdoor kitchens, where customisation and visual order are just as important as performance. Napoleon developed this model with outdoor design professionals, architects, and demanding users in mind, who value both functionality and harmony in the setting where the equipment is installed.
🌡️ Precise Temperature Control with ACCU PROBE™ Thermometer
Temperature control is crucial in any cooking process, and for this reason, this grill includes the ACCU PROBE™ thermometer mounted on the lid. Featuring a modern carbon-style design, this device offers an accurate reading of the internal temperature, covering a range from 40 to 370 degrees Celsius.
Thanks to this tool, users can carry out specific cooking methods such as smoking, high-temperature searing, or indirect cooking without relying on external instruments. The thermometer is strategically placed for visibility even when the lid is partially open, and its analogue design provides immediate and reliable readings without depending on electronic components that may fail over time.
🛡️ Two-Level Heat Shield Plates for Homogeneous Heat Distribution
The interior of the cooking chamber features a thermal distribution system consisting of stainless steel protective plates arranged in two levels. This internal architecture is designed to prevent the common hot spots or areas with uneven heat, improving the overall cooking experience. The plates are located both directly above each burner and between the gaps, forming an ascending structure from the rear to the front that channels heat progressively.
This design promotes a more stable and uniform cook across the entire grill, regardless of the number of burners in use. Moreover, the plates protect the burners from dripping grease, extending their life by minimising direct exposure to residues.
🧱 304 Stainless Steel Construction: Durability Guaranteed
The entire Napoleon BI32 structure is constructed from 304 stainless steel, a high-end alloy renowned for its superior resistance to corrosion, heat, and extreme outdoor conditions. This material not only guarantees a prolonged service life but also makes everyday cleaning easier and provides a consistently impeccable appearance.
The lid, with a double-wall design, incorporates the LIFT EASE™ system for smooth opening and closing, avoiding slams and improving access to the cooking zone. Each component—from the combustion chamber to the drip tray—is designed to withstand the test of time without deterioration, even under intensive or prolonged use.
