Specifications

Common questions

Is the venting included?
No. Like every manufacturer, Superior sells the pipe separately because every house needs a different run. Use the 12DM / 12HT 12 in. chimney page to pick the lengths, elbows and termination, or call us with your framing height and we will build the vent kit for you.

What does the interior panel option change?
The look inside the firebox. The standard interior is painted black; the stacked-stone and porcelain liners replace it with a brick or reflective finish and are installed at the factory price shown.

Who installs it?
This unit is sold and shipped direct from the manufacturer; installation is by your own certified hearth installer, working from the manual below.
