Frequently Asked Questions
Does it include logs and a burner?
No. The VRE4236 is the firebox only. Add a listed vent-free log set and burner to complete it.
Which log sets fit?
Superior recommends its Giant Timbers OD and Mossy Oak OD sets; any listed ANSI Z21.97 outdoor vent-free log set is compatible outdoors. The interior is 35 in. wide at the front and 23-1/4 in. at the back.
Can it go indoors?
It is approved for indoor use with a listed ANSI Z21.11.2 vent-free log set where local code allows vent-free appliances.
Can it be installed in New York City?
No. Vent-free gas appliances cannot be installed in NYC under the NYC Fuel Gas Code, so we sell it for projects outside the five boroughs.
