Direct Vent Technology
Unvented or vent free fireplaces can literally turn your house into a chimney, causing health problems for your family. Thanks to patented Direct Vent Technology, your fireplace can use outside air for combustion, expelling 100% of the combustion exhaust and by-products. This means a pleasant heating experience without the presence of exhaust, fumes, soot and strong combustion odors.
Zone Heating
Put the heat where you need it most with Zone Heating. This climate control technology provides homeowners with the option to redirect heat output to specific areas of the home, improving heating efficiency. With the Heat-Zone technology, a fan system draws air from around the firebox and pushes it to designated rooms through Heat-Ducts. And by heating only the rooms you want, you save money and energy.
IntelliFire Ignition System
The power of the exclusive, state-of-the-art IntelliFire Ignition System acts as a silent partner of heat output. By providing a pilot flame only when you need it, it reduces gas consumption as well as wear and tear on your thermogenerator.
FireBrick Technology
The exclusive FireBrick generates 25% more heat than a metal fireplace insert. Best of all, this one-piece, seamless firebox look just like masonry.
