Boulevard Linear Direct-Vent Fireplaces
Your Boulevard fireplace will add value, ambiance, and warmth to your home!
The Boulevard Series Direct Vent Fireplace offers a contemporary look with a linear burner and matte black liner. The burner is fully recessed so your fireplace will be filled with lively flames. The Empire 36" Boulevard Direct-Vent Gas Linear Fireplace is perfect for larger spaces and gives your space a contemporary focal point that your guests will love.
It features an electronic ignition system so there is no standing pilot. The system includes a battery back-up for manual or remote operation. With the remote, you can switch the unit to a standing pilot mode, which is recommended in cold climate areas. A beautiful flame dances and reflects inside the sealed combustion chamber. In the event of a power outage, the intermittent pilot can operate with a standing pilot to provide heat. The pleasingly bright back-lit LCD screen will be your tour guide through the set-up and operation making it an easy process using simple graphics.
The new 36" Empire Boulevard direct vent linear fireplace offers several options including crushed glass media and optional decorative glass droplets. The fireplace comes standard with a matte black interior liner and we also offer an optional black reflective porcelain interior liner or the modern Ridgeback bronze liner. Decorative trim options are also available in matte black or hammered pewter finish that will hide granite or tile's cut edges, and adjusts from 3/8" to 1-1/2" in thickness to accommodate for most surround materials. The optional Rustic Log Set includes a unique assortment of ceramic fiber logs and stones, plus coiled slivers of stainless steel that react to the light and flames to bring your fireplace to life.
