These models represent the perfect blend of modern technology, aesthetic appeal, and user-friendly features, making them popular choices for homeowners seeking a stylish and functional heating solution.

One of the standout features of the Heat & Glo LifeStyle Escape-42DV is its impressive design. With a large viewing area, the fireplace allows for a mesmerizing display of flames, creating a focal point in any room.

The LifeStyle Escape series also excels in customizability.

The IntelliFire app provides a convenient way to control the fireplace from a smartphone, featuring options for remote ignition, programmable timers, and flame height adjustments, putting users in complete control of their heating experience.

Safety is paramount, and the Heat & Glo LifeStyle Escape models come equipped with an advanced safety barrier to prevent accidental contact with the hot glass surface, making them family-friendly options. Moreover, their low emissions and high-efficiency ratings contribute to environmentally responsible heating.

In summary, the Heat & Glo LifeStyle Escape-42DV and Escape-42DVLP models combine striking aesthetics, efficient heating technologies, and user-centric features.
