Product Description

Empire Tahoe Luxury 42" Clean Face overview

The Tahoe Luxury Clean Face is built to look like a site-built masonry fireplace once the wall is finished. Tile or other non-combustible material can cover the outer edge, and the large ceramic glass window shows a 9-piece log set burning over an expanded ember bed and a rustic brick floor.

It needs just over 22" of depth and vents from the top through a single 5" x 8" vent-within-a-vent, which can run out the wall or up through the roof. Choose millivolt (standing pilot) or electronic ignition; the electronic version adds a remote and blower. A barrier screen is included.

  • Clean-face design for a built-in look
  • 24-1/8" x 37" ceramic glass
  • 9-piece log set and expanded ember bed

Venting & installation

The Tahoe Luxury uses Empire 5" x 8" direct-vent pipe (SD58DVA components and DVVK5 kits), top vent only, routed through the wall or roof. See the venting recommendation on this page. Have it installed by a qualified installer following the manufacturer's installation manual and your local codes.

What to order with it

Choose fuel and ignition (millivolt, or electronic with remote and blower), then an interior: Rustic Brick or Old World Stone panels with floor, or Black Reflective panels. Popular add-ons are a decorative front, a remote upgrade and venting components.

FAQ

Millivolt or electronic?
Millivolt uses a standing pilot and needs no power; electronic eliminates the standing pilot and, on this listing, includes a remote and blower.

How deep a wall does it need?
Just over 22"; framing depth is 21-1/2" per the manual.
