Product Description

Superior WRT/WCT3042 overview

The Superior WRT/WCT3042 is a 42-inch Pro Series wood-burning fireplace that you can order two ways: the WRT3042 radiant clean-face model, which has a smooth face and radiates heat from the opening, or the WCT3042 louvered circulating model, which draws room air around the firebox and returns it warmer through the louvers.

Both are fully insulated with stacked textured refractory, hidden screen pockets, an easy-access damper and gas-log-ready features, plus full-length nailing flanges, drywall stops and pre-wired dual-access junction boxes. They ship with a 12" vent collar and a 20" starter collar that converts them to 8" chimney.

  • Radiant clean-face (WRT) or louvered circulating (WCT)
  • Fully insulated firebox with stacked refractory
  • Hidden screen pockets and easy-access damper
  • Gas log ready

Venting & installation

Vent it with Superior's 8" wood-burning chimney (8DM, or 8HT in Canada); see the venting recommendation on this page. It should be installed per the manufacturer's installation manual and local codes by a qualified installer.

What to order with it

Choose radiant or louvered. Add 8" chimney, and consider a blower (for the circulating model), doors, screens or an outside air kit.

FAQ

Radiant or louvered?
Radiant has the cleaner face; louvered circulates more heat into the room and can take a blower.

Can I add gas logs later?
Yes, the series is gas log ready.
