Do you have Vent Free Fireplaces?
NO! Please understand, as safe as some manufacturers claim, there is no such thing as a vent free gas unit. If you see ANY yellow flame, that is Carbon Monoxide and Soot. Gas that burnes Blue is combusted fuel ( But not all of it ) Do not take chances with your life.

What is Direct Vent and B-Vent?
Direct vent is a Co-Axial vent pipe. It must be used with Direct vent units. The pipe has a pipe within the pipe, one for fresh air in and one for exhaust. It can vent Vertical or Horizontally.
B-Vent is a Gas vent only, Not to be confused with double wall chimney pipe. This pipe is for gas appliances only and not for solid fuel. Most of our units will be B-Vent. This uses inside air to combust and with a power vent can run up, down, sideways. The B-vent is not intended for heating. The DIrect Vent is rated as a heater.
