Installation Notes
Install by a qualified gas fitter to the current Superior installation manual, including framing, mantel and side-wall clearances, venting, fireboard and the 120 VAC connection. A see-through installation needs the see-through kit and its own framing dimensions.
In New York City gas fireplace work requires a licensed master plumber and permit. Book a fireplace design consultation to plan the wall, venting route and any TV above.

Both share the same firebox sizes. The DRL6000 adds the ProFlame II hand-held thermostat remote and platinum glass media; the DRL4000 uses wall-switch control with reflective black glass.
