A 36-inch traditional direct vent gas fireplace from Empire's Tahoe Luxury line, rated at 35,000 BTU with a larger Slope Glaze burner, 13-piece log set, ceramic glass, blower and dimmable accent light...
The Empire Tahoe Luxury 36" Direct Vent Gas Fireplace (DVX36FP31 millivolt, DVX36FP71 electronic) is a zero-clearance fireplace for a family room, bedroom or remodel where a 42" unit would overwhelm the wall. It frames into a standard chase or wall and gives you a full, traditional log fire.
Unlike the 42" Tahoe Luxury, this size uses the smaller 4" x 6-5/8" direct vent pipe, which can simplify routing. The Luxury burner is larger than the Premium version's, building a fuller ember bed and more heat, and the blower and dimmable accent lamp come standard.
