Know before you buy
No, professional installation is required. Because this is a direct vent gas appliance, it must be installed by a qualified technician to ensure all local building codes and safety standards are met.
Direct vent fireplaces use a sealed combustion system that draws air from outside the home and exhausts all combustion byproducts back outside. This keeps your indoor air quality unaffected by the fireplace operation.
The Boulevard 72-inch model features electronic ignition for convenient operation. Depending on your specific configuration, it is typically controlled via a wall switch or a compatible remote control system.
Yes, the unit features an adjustable flame height control. This allows you to customize the visual ambiance while also managing the amount of heat being distributed into your room.
Absolutely. The 72-inch linear profile is designed specifically for contemporary spaces, offering a clean, expansive look that serves as a sophisticated focal point without unnecessary ornamentation.
