Ironstrike Montlake 230 Wood-Burning Fireplace Insert with Blower
As elegant as it is efficient, the Ironstrike Montlake 230 Wood-Burning Fireplace Insert (model ML230GL, order number F3832) comes with a 150 CFM variable-speed blower as standard equipment. Like its Lodge Collection siblings, it has raised the standard for home heating with proven Thermal Fin Technology (TFT™), a cast-iron heat exchanger that delivers the perfect amount of heat.
Expansive, durable ceramic glass gives you unobstructed views of the fire and allows for easy heat transfer. A wide array of high-quality, versatile styling options means the Montlake 230 will easily complement any décor.
Key Features
Blower included: a standard 150 CFM variable-speed blower ships with the insert and quickly moves heat into your room, with manual or automatic (heat-activated) operation. There is no separate blower kit to buy.
Firebox accepts logs up to 18" long (16" W x 18" D maximum).
Up to 76,000 BTU/hour; heats approximately 1,200-2,200 square feet.*
Thermal Fin heat exchanger creates 32% more surface area than a standard insert design resulting in more heat entering the room.
Air-boost timer automatically adjusts the air intake control making startup and reloading easier.
Tall opening provides an expansive view of the burning fire.
Ceramic glass for extra strength and optimum heat transfer.
Unique, integral air wash system keeps the glass clean and clear for a wide-open view of the fire.
High-density firebrick retains heat longer, resulting in increased efficiency.
One-touch control ensures easy operation and comfort.
Burn times up to 8 hours on a full load.*
EPA-certified at 1.7 g/hr and Washington State-approved for clean and efficient operation.
Limited Lifetime Warranty.
*Square-feet heating capacities and burn times are approximations only. Actual performance may vary depending upon home design and insulation, ceiling heights, climate, condition and type of wood used, appliance location, burn rate, accessories chosen, chimney installation and how the appliance is operated.
