FIREPLACES. Several new fireplace designs have been introduced by Empire Comfort Systems. The Renegade TruFlame direct-vent fireplace, model DVCT50 (left), is shown with a traditional stone liner, traditional charred log set, and forged iron front with rectangle inset. The TruFlame system creates realistic flames and a glowing ember bed that replicate a natural wood fire. Renegade models are offered in. 30-in. and 35-in. sizes. A multifunction remote operates as a conventional thermostat; a Smart Thermostat to modulate flame height as the room reaches the desired temperature; or as a manual control. The remote also operates the included accent light and blower.
The Boulevard series can be tailored to either a traditional or contemporary décor, and is available in a variety of sizes—48-in., 60-in., 72-in. single sided, and 48-in. see through. The Boulevard vent-free 60-in. fireplace, model VFLB60, is shown (right) with a stainless steel liner, clear crushed glass, multi-color LED lighting, and fine mesh barrier screen.
