Product Description

Tahoe Premium 36" overview

The Empire Tahoe Premium 36" Direct Vent Gas Fireplace (DVP36FP30 millivolt) is a dependable traditional zero-clearance fireplace for living rooms, family rooms and bedrooms. It is a popular size because it gives a substantial fire without needing a very wide chase.

The Tahoe Premium's deeper firebox lets the four-piece log set stack taller on the Slope Glaze burner for a fuller flame. At 36" it uses smaller 4" x 6-5/8" vent pipe than the 42" model, and it is rated higher, at 25,000 BTU.

  • Deep firebox for a taller log stack
