Empire Spirit 22" Propane Gas Stove delivers the appearance of a traditional cast iron stove while using a direct vent system that draws combustion air from outdoors and vents exhaust outside the home. The sealed combustion design helps separate room air from combustion air, making it suitable for use as a primary heat source where appropriate. This model features an intermittent pilot ignition system that eliminates a standing pilot, providing additional energy savings by igniting the pilot only when heat is requested.
The direct vent design includes Empire's Slope Glaze Burner with an expanded ember bed that creates a natural flame presentation. Ceramic beads inside the burner produce swirling flames, while the included hand-painted ceramic fiber log set and glowing embers provide a realistic wood fire appearance. The porcelain black cast iron cabinet complements both traditional and contemporary spaces.
This freestanding propane gas stove delivers an input range of 13,500 to 19,500 BTU/hr and is designed for 4 x 6 5/8 direct vent installation. It includes a fireplace barrier screen, four-piece log set, and on/off switch, while optional accessories such as remote controls, thermostats, blowers, floor pads, and conversion components are available separately.
