| Direct Vent Fireplaces |
 |
|
Direct Vent fireplaces have a sealed, glass-fronted combustion
chamber that keeps the byproducts of combustion out of the living space.
Air is drawn into the firebox from outside the home using a special co-axial
flue pipe system. This 'pipe within a pipe' also exhausts the flue products
outside the home. Direct vent fireplaces offer good efficiency because they
don't steal heated air from the living space.

| B-Vent Fireplaces |
 |
|
B-Vent fireplaces (sometimes called Top Vent or Natural Vent) draw air
into the combustion chamber from inside the home. This fresh air is mixed with gas
and burned in the fireplace. The fireplace exhausts the byproducts of combustion
outside of your home using a dedicated B-Vent flue pipe. Although fresh air is used
from inside your home, products of combustion are never vented into your home.

| Vent Free Fireplaces |
 |
|
A Vent Free fireplace does not use a chimney or flue pipe.
These fireplaces burn extremely clean so the byproducts of combustion can be
vented back into the room. This eliminates the need for a chimney resulting
in lower installation costs. Because they do not send hot flue gases up the
chimney, these fireplaces are extremely heat-efficient. All models feature
an Oxygen Depletion Sensor for maximum safety.
