This unique three sided open custom fireplace was client's vision that came to life and accomplished just what the client desired, which was to provide a focal point in the room and add warmth to the space.
The three-sided custom fireplace features dramatic and vibrant real fire flame and is especially enjoable because of its location in the room and because there is no glass installed around it.
This custom open fireplace is designed with 3 open sides and two linear ribbon flame fires about thirty six inches long, covered with crushed black glass to enhance flame pattern.
Collection hood was installed and suspended at the top, which connected to proper-sized vent system and power vent fan to ensure proper draft.
This appliance is a custom built decorative gas fireplace. The custom three-sided fireplace is rated for use with propane only and exhausts through
a power vented 14 B-vent flue. The open custom fireplace controls are designed to ensure that the exhaust fan has established an adequate
draft via a pressure switch prior to initiating the pilot gas ignition sequence. This 3 sided open custom fireplace was approved by to the requirements contained in ANSI Z21.50-2014 Vented Gas Fireplaces standard. The investigation began on April 19, 2016 and concluded on April 29, 2016.
