A Direct-Vent system uses two vent pipes. One draws air in from outdoors to support combustion. The other exhausts the by-products of combustion to the outside. The two vent pipes may be concentric (exhaust pipe within a larger diameter intake pipe) or co-linear (separate pipes of about the same size).

Combustion takes place inside a sealed chamber – with a glass front in the 
case of a fireplace. Room air circulates around the combustion chamber, often assisted by a blower, to heat the room. A DV system is often installed along an outside wall to simplify the vent run, 
but can also be installed elsewhere in the home and vented through the roof.

Tahoe Direct-Vent Fireplace

Designed for in-wall installation, your Tahoe Direct-Vent fireplace can be finished with tile or other non-combustible material, which conceals the outer edge of the fireplace to provide a true built-in appearance.

Tahoe Deluxe (DVD)

Tahoe Deluxe models feature our Contour tube-style burner, designed to complement the hand-painted ceramic fiber log set, and produce a natural dancing flame. The Deluxe Tahoe model has louvers and an available trim kit. The large heat-resistant, tempered glass window provides an unobstructed view to the log set. Tahoe Deluxe offer several styles of liners – Aged Brick, Herringbone, Stacked Limestone, and Black Reflective.

DVD models require just 16 inches of depth and use 4 x 6-5/8 venting, making it ideal for applications where wall-cavity space is tight. Conventional Deluxe fireplaces may be installed in the wall or in a cabinet or corner mantel. Tile or other non-combustible material may be used to conceal the outer edge of the fireplace to provide a true built-in appearance. The Deluxe model is offered in Millivolt and Intermittent Pilot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I buy a fireplace online and install it myself?

We highly recommend a certified professional install all of our units. Any issues that arise from improper installation will not be covered under warranty.

Does our product work during a power outage?

Yes, most of our appliances have the ability to be used in a power outage situation please see a local dealer for more information.

What is the difference between Millivolt and electronic ignition fireplaces?

Millivolt fireplaces use the electricity produced by a standing pilot to operate the fireplace. Electronic ignition fireplaces rely on a power source to power the fireplace, this can be house voltage as well as battery voltage.

Can I use a Wi-Fi Thermostat with my unit?

Our units are designed to be operated by millivolts or low voltage, most Wi-Fi thermostats use 24volts and are not compatible.

Where can I find my model and serial number?

There is a rating plate attached to the valve of your appliance that will have the model and serial number information.

Can you tell me how old my unit is?

Once you locate your rating plate the serial number will help identify the age, the first two digits of the serial number denote the year of manufacture (21, 20, 19...) the next two digits identify the week of that year that the unit was built.

What is the difference between a fireplace, a firebox, and an insert?

Fireplaces are designed to be installed into a framed opening with specific clearances to combustibles. Fireboxes are just like Fireplaces in terms of where they can be installed but in addition a burner and a set of logs is required to finish off the unit. Inserts are designed to be installed directly into an existing wood burning fireplace that meets all standards of construction.
