Direct-Vent Fireplace Systems Are Easy To Install, Easy To Operate.
A Vanguard Direct-Vent Fireplace gives you the attractiveness of a real wood burning fireplace with the economy, convenience and warmth of direct-vent gas space heating. No expensive chimney is required, so installation is a fraction of the cost of installing a wood burning fireplace. Plus, you'll never find yourself carrying in wet logs or going without heat during an electrical power outage.
A Zero Clearance standard direct-vent fireplace can be installed against or recessed into any outside wall that is accessible to your gas line. The slant back designs also provide flexible horizontal or vertical options. Venting kits are available for most popular applications.
Direct-Vent Fireplaces are ideally suited for today's energy-efficient, tightly constructed homes. The flames burn in a sealed combustion firebox, so the room air does not come in contact with the flames. The sealed firebox requires the fireplace to draw outside air to the fire for combustion. This is accomplished by using a concentric vent system which is actually a pipe within a pipe. Outside air is drawn to the burners through an outer pipe, while exhaust gases are expelled through a smaller pipe. Room air is circulated through passageways around the firebox, then emitted through the top louvers.
Vanguard Gives You Beautiful Choices.
