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 Luxury (DVX)
Tahoe Luxury models retain the same overall dimensions as Premium models but feature ceramic glass (for better heat transfer), a dimmer-controlled accent lamp inside the fireplace, automatic blower, and an intricately detailed 13-piece log set.
The larger Slope Glaze Excess Burner provides a fuller ember bed and generates more heat than a comparably sized Premium model. Liner options for Luxury Models include: Banded Brick, Stacked Limestone, and Black Reflective.
Luxury models are offered in Millivolt, IP, and Multi-Function remote models.
Please Note: Picture Shown Tahoe Luxury Direct-Vent Fireplace with Banded Brick Liner, Custom Mantelshelf and Slate Tile Surround. Not Included (Sold Separately).
