PRODUCT FEATURES

OPERATION

This firebox is designed for use with approved ANSI Z21.11.2 decorative type unvented room heaters. (Physical size limitations apply. Refer to minimum firebox requirements supplied with log heater.) It requires no outside venting or chimney making installation easy and inexpensive. When used without the blower, the firebox requires no electricity making it ideal for emergency backup heat.

REFRACTORY BRICK LINER

Your firebox features a concrete refractory brick liner. As with all concrete liners, this liner may develop slight cracks when exposed to heat. These cracks will not affect the performance of the fireplace or vent-free gas logs.
