Empire Tahoe Clean Face Luxury 36" Direct Vent Gas Fireplace - Multi-Function
The Empire Tahoe Clean Face Luxury 36" Direct Vent Gas Fireplace combines elegant design with modern gas performance. Featuring a large ceramic glass window and a sleek clean-face design, it replicates the look of a custom-built fireplace while delivering the efficiency and ease of a direct-vent system. This luxury model is available in 36-inch and 42-inch sizes to suit different spaces.
Heater-rated for dependable performance, the Tahoe provides efficient zone heating that helps reduce energy costs by warming only the rooms you use most. An optional blower enhances heat circulation, while multi-function controls allow greater flexibility in operation.
Built for in-wall installation, the unit requires just over 22 inches of depth and vents from the top—out through a wall or vertically through the roof. The 5 x 8 vent-within-a-vent system draws in fresh outdoor air while safely exhausting combustion by-products. A barrier screen is included for added safety, protecting against contact with hot glass.
Advantages:
- Good efficiency – 60 to 80%
- Good heat output with thermal transfer through the glass and air circulation
- Separates room air from the combustion air
- May be used as the primary heat source
- Can operate with a remote or thermostat
- Most systems can provide life-saving heat during a winter power outage

These direct-vent fireplaces draw in fresh outside air to support combustion and exhaust combustion by-products to the outdoors. The 5 x 8 vent-within-a-vent isolates the incoming fresh air from the exhaust, yet still requires just a single hole through the wall or roof.
