Gas fireplaces are often referred to as zero clearance or factory-built fireplaces. It refers to the fact that it can be installed with wooden framing directly against the metal stand-offs on the fireplace’s cabinet. A direct vent gas fireplace can be installed on an outside main floor wall; the only construction needed is a hole (about 7 - 9" wide) for the vent pipe to terminate to the outside. They can be vented horizontally - directly out the back of the unit up to 20 feet, or vertically – directly from the top of the unit up to 40 feet. The convenience of direct vent gas fireplaces can allow you to add a fireplace in any room, even a bathroom or a small den or bedroom. In addition, a cabinet or mantel can easily be installed around the gas fireplace to complete the package. We also offer many gas fireplace models with thermostat capabilities. You can use them with a programmable thermostat to heat your room how and when you want automatically.
Fireside Hearth & Home carries the most extensive variety of gas, wood, and electric fireplaces in the marketplace. Our awarding-winning product lines from Heatilator, Heat-N-Glo and Quadra-Fire have helped change the landscape of the hearth industry through both innovation and style. One such innovation is the patented IPI ignition system from Hearth and Home Technologies. This patented ignition system, which has no pilot light, is found in both the Heat-N-Glo and Heatilator gas fireplaces. No pilot light you ask?! This innovative system lights the pilot when the switch is turned on through a low voltage ignition and has a battery back-up when the power is out. With this type of ignition system, you get cleaner glass, lower maintenance needs, and the added benefit of energy efficiency without a constant pilot light, saving approximately $10-15 a month, which adds up to over $100.00 a year. We are proud to stock over 100 sizes and styles of wood and gas fireplaces in our Washington location.
