Upgrade your home heating with the Empire Spirit Medium Cast Iron Direct Vent Gas Stove, combining classic cast iron craftsmanship with modern efficiency. This direct vent gas stove delivers reliable warmth, energy efficiency, and the timeless appeal of traditional stove design.

The direct-vent system features two vent pipes—one drawing in fresh outdoor air for combustion and the other safely exhausting by-products outside. Combustion occurs within a sealed chamber with a large glass front, allowing you to enjoy the flickering flames while keeping indoor air clean.

Room air circulates around the combustion chamber, and an optional blower helps distribute heat evenly, ensuring comfort throughout your space. Flexible installation options allow venting along an exterior wall or vertically through the roof, making this medium cast iron gas stove adaptable for any home layout.

Advantages:

• Good efficiency – 60 to 80%
• Good heat output with thermal transfer through the glass and air circulation
• Separates room air from combustion air
• May be used as primary heat source
• Can operate with a remote or thermostat
• Most systems can provide life-saving heat during a winter power outage
  

i) Millivolt (MV)

Empire Cast Iron Stoves are available in two types of ignition – Millivolt (MV) and Intermittent Pilot (IP). The Millivolt system lights a standing pilot with a pushbutton piezo ignitor. Once the standing pilot is lit, the MV system operates with an on/off switch concealed on the back of the stove or with one of Empire’s optional remote control systems.

ii) Intermittent Pilot (IP)

IP systems eliminate the standing pilot for even greater energy savings. Pressing the on/off switch ignites the pilot, which then ignites the main burner. IP systems can also operate with an optional remote control system.
