Gas Burning Stoves
A gas stove is a freestanding firebox with a glass front that runs on natural gas or propane, with the look of a wood stove and none of the wood. We carry two kinds. A direct vent gas stove is sealed: it takes its combustion air from outside and vents through a pipe in the wall or roof. A vent-free gas stove has no vent at all, burns room air and is meant for supplemental heat. Our stoves come from Napoleon, Empire, Kingsman, Buck Stove, Breckwell and True North, up to 44,000 BTU/hr.
Each type also has its own page: Direct Vent Gas Stoves and Vent Free Gas Stoves. The guide below the products compares the two and lists every stove with its input and size.

Sizes are width x height x depth. The direct vent and vent-free pages have more detail on each stove, and every product page has the manual.
Ignition and power outages
- Millivolt (standing pilot) stoves need no electricity to run, so the fire keeps working in a power outage. Most Kingsman, Buck Stove and Empire stoves and several Napoleon stoves come in millivolt.
- Electronic or intermittent pilot (IPI) stoves light the pilot only when needed. The Empire Spirit IPI models run on an AC adapter with a battery backup.
- Blowers need power. The Napoleon Haliburton and Havelock, the Breckwell BH23 and the Buck Stove Model 34 and Model 384 come with one; most others offer one as an option.
Our guide to millivolt vs. electronic ignition explains the difference in more detail.
What else to order
- Several stoves are sold as the stove body: the Kingsman stoves need their log set, and some also need doors, a door frame, a safety barrier or a burner; the Napoleon Elora needs a Luminous Log burner kit. Each product page lists what's required.
- Direct vent stoves need vent pipe and a termination; the product page or manual lists the approved vent systems.
- The Buck Stove Model 34 can take a mantel or trim kit, and the Model 384 legs or a pedestal, sold separately.
- For the Empire Spirit cast iron stoves: the side shelf kit fits the VFD10CC, VFD20CC, VFD30CC, DVP20CC and DVP30CC, and a black porcelain liner fits the DVP30CC.
Gas stove FAQs
Do I need a chimney for a gas stove?
No. A direct vent stove vents through its own pipe, out a wall or up through the roof. A vent-free stove needs no vent at all.
Will a gas stove work in a power outage?
A millivolt stove will, since it needs no electricity. Electronic ignition stoves depend on their battery backup, and a blower waits until the power is back.
Natural gas or propane?
Most stoves come in both, or convert with a kit. Napoleon stoves ship for natural gas with a propane conversion kit for most models (the Elora is natural gas only). The Empire vent-free stoves and the Buck Stove Model 1127 can't be converted and the Model 1110 is also made for one gas, so order the model for your gas.
Can a gas stove go in a bedroom?
Many direct vent stoves can: the Empire Spirit, Kingsman and True North direct vent stoves are approved for bedrooms. A vent-free heater over 10,000 BTU/hr can't go in a bedroom or bathroom.
Can a gas stove go in a mobile home?
Many can, including the Napoleon and Kingsman direct vent stoves. Each product page says whether that stove is approved.
