🔥 Real Wood Burning with Reliable Heat Output

At its core, this fireplace delivers an authentic, full-bodied flame experience with real wood logs and natural radiant warmth. Designed for both ambiance and utility, it offers deep firebox dimensions, strong draft performance, and high heat potential—all while maintaining a sleek, customizable façade.

  • Large firebox supports extended burns and full-length logs
  • Radiant heat warms mid-to-large rooms efficiently
  • Durable steel or refractory interior for lasting performance
  • Clean face design accommodates wide variety of finish materials

This balance of visual appeal and heating power makes it ideal for daily use or occasional luxury, depending on your needs.

🧱 Built-In Versatility for Architects and Homeowners

The true strength of the Designer Series lies in its flexibility. From surround materials to door styles and firebox liners, it’s built to adapt. Whether you’re framing it in stone, tile, shiplap, or reclaimed wood, this fireplace is ready to reflect the identity of the space around it.

  • Available with arched or rectangular openings
  • Customize with brick, herringbone, or clean-lined panels
  • Works with traditional mantels or full-height architectural facades
  • Flush installation allows seamless wall integration

This makes the Designer Series a favorite among interior designers looking to combine fire warmth with seamless room transitions.

🛡 Built for Longevity and Performance

In addition to style and flexibility, the Designer Series offers lasting reliability. The firebox is lined with high-strength panels to resist cracking and thermal wear, while optional outside air kits and flue dampers ensure safe, efficient combustion and code compliance.

  • Durable firebox components resist high heat and creosote buildup
  • Optional outside air kit for better indoor air quality
  • Optional mesh spark screen or glass doors for safety and airflow control
  • Easy-to-service components and long-term use rating

Whether you're designing a permanent residence or a vacation retreat, this fireplace is built to perform across decades of seasonal use.
