Empire VFHS-20R-N Vent Free Fireplace
This Vail vent-free fireplace offers just the right combination of ambiance,
efficiency and convenience. You can warm up to the comforts of the Vail
20 vent-free fireplace in virtually any room in your home.
The modulating hydraulic thermostat model ships as a 20,000 BTU fireplace
that's large enough to be enjoyed in any great room or family room. Or,
choose to convert the unit into a 10,000 BTU fireplace that's suitable
for use in a bedroom (where allowed by code). The millivolt model is 20,000
BTU's and offers a variety of control accessories. The optional automatic
blower maximizes heat distribution, and the ceramic brick liner accessory
adds the look of real masonry. Standard equipment includes flat black
louvers and a polished brass frame.
To help you create the desired look of your room, the Vail 20 vent-free
fireplace is available with a full or corner cabinet mantel with bases
in five finishes to match your room's decor. This unit's small size makes
it a nice addition to a smaller room, which is nice; the realism takes
a bit of a back seat to size and function, however, so our team rated
this unit with 3 and 1/2 Stars.
