Product Description

Tahoe Luxury 36" Clean Face overview

The Empire Tahoe Luxury 36" Clean Face Direct Vent Gas Fireplace (DVCX36FP series) is for homeowners who want the look of a masonry fireplace without building one. Its clean face lets tile or stone run up to the opening, so the finished wall reads like a custom, built-in fireplace.

It differs from the standard Tahoe Luxury 36 by that flush face and a larger ceramic glass window. It needs only a little over 22" of depth, vents from the top out a wall or roof on a single 5" x 8" hole, and comes with a barrier screen.

Key features

  • Clean-face design for a site-built appearance
  • Up to 37,000 BTU
  • Large ceramic glass window
  • Barrier screen included
  • Millivolt or electronic ignition (electronic includes remote and blower)
  • Optional rectangular fronts or forged iron doors
