Description

The Empire Vail 26" Special Edition Vent Free Gas Fireplace with Cherry Mantel is a complete fireplace-and-mantel system designed for indoor installation without a chimney or venting system. The package combines a cherry-finish mantel with a 20,000 BTU Contour burner, five-piece Flint Hill ceramic fiber log set, glowing embers, and matte black hood, frame, and louvers for a traditional finished fireplace presentation.

The Vail 26 Special Edition uses a millivolt control system with an included On/Off switch and provides variable output from 14,000 to 20,000 BTU on Natural Gas or Propane. The self-powered millivolt system does not require household electricity for standard fireplace operation and supports optional remote or thermostat controls. Its compact mantel measures approximately 45 3/8" wide and 17 1/4" deep for a complete fireplace system with a relatively small footprint.
