Empire 36" Breckenridge Select Vent-Free Firebox

A Vent-Free system uses room air for combustion and delivers 99.9% of the available heat energy directly to the room. Vent-Free systems have an unmatched safety record, thanks in part to their clean-burning technology and their Oxygen Depletion Sensor, which instantly shuts off the valve if oxygen in the room drops to and unsafe level. Because no venting is required, Vent-Free systems offer more installation options.

Vent-Free systems are limited to 40,000 Btu and must be operated as supplemental heating sources in conjunction with a central furnace that circulates air.

Advantages:

  • Unmatched efficiency – 99.9%
  • Offers the most installation versatility
  • Usually less expensive to buy and to install
  • Can operate with a remote or thermostat
  • Most systems can provide life-saving heat during a winter power outage

    Breckenridge Vent-Free Fireboxes

    The Breckenridge Vent-Free Fireboxes offer a variety of sizes and configurations. Available in louvered and flush front, the Breckenridge Deluxe and the deeper Premium models present the updated look of a traditional recirculating firebox.

    Select Firebox (VFS)

    Our unique Breckenridge Select vent-free gas firebox features a tall, deep stage for the log set, yet has compact outer dimensions and a low-profile top and bottom. The visual effect is a lot more fireplace with less of the firebox face showing.

    The Breckenridge Select has no louvers and the lower panel measures less than an inch tall, allowing it to be installed at floor level, yet still provide the benefit of a recirculating firebox with optional blower.

    Installation Requirements

    • Venting: Vent-free. No chimney, flue or vent pipe is required.
    • Burner and log set: Sold separately. Install only an ANSI Z21.11.2 vent-free burner and log set (a listed gas-fired unvented decorative room heater) rated no more than 40,000 Btu/hr, and follow the log set's own installation instructions as well as this firebox's. The firebox manual does not name specific burner or log set models.
    • Clearances to combustibles: Side and back flanges 0"; combustible finishing materials 3/4" from the top of the unit; 6" minimum from the inside of the firebox to a perpendicular combustible side wall; 36" clear in front of the firebox; ceiling height at least 84" measured from the bottom of the firebox
    • Framing: Rough opening 38-7/8" H x 40-3/8" W x 23-3/8" D. Framing headers may rest on the top of the firebox standoffs.
    • Mantel clearance: Follow the mantel chart in the installation manual for any combustible mantel above the unit.
    • Floor: If the firebox sits directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible material other than wood flooring, install it on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the unit.
    • Room size, bedrooms and bathrooms: The firebox manual sets no room-size rule of its own; follow the room-size and bedroom/bathroom rules in the installation manual of the vent-free burner/log set you install, and local codes. In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, unvented propane and natural gas-fired space heaters are prohibited in bedrooms and bathrooms.
    • Power: Electrical connections (such as the optional blower) must be grounded per local codes or, where there are none, the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. The three-prong grounding plug must go directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle.
    • Installation: Must be installed by a qualified installer per the installation manual and local codes.
