Gas Fireplaces

This collection includes chimney-free gas fireplaces. There are two types of gas fireplaces that don't need a chimney: 1) ventless 2) direct vent. 

Common Features of Direct Vent and Ventless Gas Fireplaces

1. Gas-Fueled Heating

Both types run on natural gas or propane, making them easy to control and relatively clean-burning compared to wood.

They offer instant ignition, adjustable flames, and remote or wall switch control in many models.

2. No Need for a Traditional Chimney

Neither type requires a full masonry chimney, allowing for more flexible installation in homes without existing flues.

3. Energy Efficiency

Both options are designed to be highly efficient, converting the majority of fuel into usable heat.

They generally outperform traditional wood-burning fireplaces in terms of heat retention and fuel economy.

4. Decorative Appeal

Designed for aesthetics as well as function, both types offer realistic flame effects, log sets, and customizable surrounds.

Available in a wide variety of styles to match modern, rustic, or traditional interiors.

5. Cleaner Operation

Both produce less smoke and particulates than wood-burning fireplaces.

Maintenance is typically easier and less messy — no ashes, soot, or creosote buildup.

6. Supplemental Heating

Often used as a zone heating solution, helping reduce central heating use and lowering energy bills.

Important Distinction

While they share many features, direct vent fireplaces expel combustion gases outside via a sealed system, while ventless models release gases into the room — which makes air quality and installation regulations an important differentiator. If you are considering a ventless gas fireplace, please check your local building codes to ensure they are allowed in your area.
