Empire Tahoe Clean Face Contemporary 42" Direct Vent Gas Fireplace - IP Control
Bring modern comfort and efficiency to your home with the Empire Tahoe Clean Face Contemporary 42" Direct Vent Gas Fireplace. Featuring a Direct Vent system, this fireplace ensures safe, clean, and reliable performance. The dual vent design draws in fresh outdoor air for combustion while simultaneously venting exhaust outside. Depending on installation needs, the system supports both concentric venting (exhaust within intake) and co-linear venting (separate intake and exhaust pipes).
The sealed combustion chamber, showcased with a clear glass front, keeps flames safely enclosed while delivering maximum efficiency. Warm air circulates around the chamber—enhanced by an optional blower—to evenly heat your living space.
For flexibility, the Tahoe 42" can be mounted on an exterior wall for a simple vent run or vented vertically through the roof, allowing installation in a variety of locations throughout your home. With its IP Control technology, you can easily operate your fireplace with convenient electronic controls, offering both style and user-friendly functionality.
Advantages:
Good efficiency – 60 to 80%
Good heat output with thermal transfer through the glass and air circulation
Separates room air from the combustion air
May be used as the primary heat source
Can operate with a remote or thermostat
Most systems can provide life-saving heat during a winter power outage
Tahoe Direct-Vent Fireplaces
Tahoe Clean-Face Premium Contemporary models feature our Contour tube-style burner, designed to complement the hand-painted ceramic fiber log set, and produce a natural dancing flame.
The Clean-Face Premium Contemporary Fireplace comes with a discreet air distribution channel that eliminates the look of louvers, yet still allows you to operate the optional blower. It features a large tempered glass window that provides an unobstructed view to the log set. Choose an optional liner to customize your fireplace.
Tahoe Clean-Face Premium Contemporary models require 17-5/8" of depth, and use 4 x 6-5/8 venting, making them ideal for applications where wall-cavity space is tight.
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 Clean Face Premium Contemporary
Ceramic Fiber Liner options for Clean-Face Premium models include a traditional Aged Brick with smoky highlights, and an old-world Rustic Brick. Or choose the deep black polished porcelain-steel liner that reflects the flames for a luxurious effect.
The available lighting kit draws attention to the intricate details of the decorative rock kit and brick liner – even when no fire is burning. You can enhance heat distribution with the optional variable-speed blower. Both the light and blower include dimmer controls.
Clean-Face Premium models are available in Millivolt and Intermittent Pilot
Please Note:Shown with crushed glass (not included) and rock set (not included).
