Description

Available Superior VRT3100 vent-free firebox sizes: 32 inch | 36 inch | 42 inch (this size)

Overall Dimensions: 47-3/4 in. W x 37-1/4 in. H x 20 in. D; opening 42 in. W x 24 in. H; framing 48-1/4 in. W x 40-1/4 in. H x 20-1/2 in. D (Superior VRT3100 smart sheet)

The Superior VRT3142 is the 42 in. model of the VRT3100 series of vent-free gas fireboxes: a heat-circulating firebox with a clean face built to hold a listed vent-free gas log set, so you get a traditional fireplace with no chimney or vent pipe. Choose the liner above: stacked refractory liners with floor (VRT3142WS) or Back Bay Brown ceramic fiber liners with black metal floor (VRT3142F).

The firebox has no burner of its own. Superior says it is compatible with any listed ANSI Z21.11.2 vent-free log set and recommends its own sets for best results, so the log set, its burner and its controls are chosen and purchased separately. The fuel choice above refers to the log set you plan to install.

Installation Notes

Frame to 48-1/4 in. W x 40-1/4 in. H x 20-1/2 in. D and size the log set to the interior firebox dimensions above. Vent-free appliances need enough room volume or ventilation air for the log set's BTU rating and are restricted in bedrooms; follow the firebox and log set manuals. Do not burn wood. Vent-free gas appliances cannot be installed in New York City under the NYC Fuel Gas Code. We sell this model for installations outside the five boroughs where local code allows it. Talk to us about the right log set and whether a vent-free system suits your home outside the city.
