Empire Tahoe Luxury 36" Clean Face Direct Vent Gas Fireplace | DVCX36FP - DVCX36FP30N
With its large ceramic glass window and clean-face design, this luxury direct vent fireplace creates the illusion of a site-built fireplace, but offers the convenience and operating efficiency of a modern gas system. The traditional luxury clean-face fireplace is available in 36-inch and 42-inch models. The available blower helps circulate warm air more quickly and is controlled by a convenient multi-function remote.
Designed for in-wall installation, our luxury clean-face models require just over 22 inches of depth. The venting connects to the top of the fireplace, but can run out the wall or up through the roof. Tile or other noncombustible material may be used to conceal the outer edge of the fireplace to create a true built-in system.
These direct-vent fireplaces draw in fresh outside air to support combustion and exhaust combustion by-products to the outdoors. The 5 x 8 vent-within-a-vent isolates the incoming fresh air from the exhaust, yet still requires just a single hole through the wall or roof.
A fireplace barrier screen is included to help protect you and your family from inadvertently touching the hot glass.
