Why Add a Direct Vent Fireplace to Your Home?

Get the clean look and steady heat of a gas unit while keeping all combustion sealed off from your living space with a direct vent fireplace. These vented gas fireplace styles pull air from outdoors and vent everything back outside for a cleaner burn, better indoor air quality, and an ambiance you can enjoy year-round.

Whether you have a classic or ultra-modern home, the flame presentation is noticeably more lifelike than basic builder-grade gas boxes. We make it easy to bring this aesthetic into your space here at The Great Fire Company.

We stock top-rated models from Empire, Majestic, Napoleon, Superior, Montigo, and more, all backed by full manufacturer warranties, factory-direct pricing, and fast, insured shipping on every order.

You gain access to lower prices than big-box competitors. And unlike drop-ship storefronts, our team actually knows these units, so we can help you narrow it down to the perfect brand and model based on your budget and space.

Combine that with our price-match guarantee, responsive customer support, and carefully curated product lineup, and you’re getting the safest, easiest, and most cost-effective way to bring a premium direct vent gas fireplace into your home.

Choosing the Right Direct Vent Gas Fireplace

There are a couple of important factors you need to consider when choosing the right direct vent fireplace. We usually advise our customers to start with BTUs. Smaller rooms typically need 20,000-30,000 BTUs, while open layouts benefit from 35,000+.

Consider the viewing style next:

  • The Empire Boulevard 48” has a clean, contemporary linear look - it’s one of the most popular modern fireplaces we carry here at The Great Fire Company.
  • The Majestic Echelon II 48” has premium features like the IntelliFire touchscreen remote and LED lighting, so you get more control over the vibe. 
  • The Napoleon Ascent X 42” has a more traditional fireplace feel with a deep firebox and really strong heating performance.

Installation depth, vent configuration (top vs rear), and blower options also matter, especially if you want stronger heat circulation. There are so many things to think about, which is why your best bet is to get in touch with our customer service team today for personalized guidance.

We’ll work one-on-one as we walk you through every detail so you can feel confident investing in a new fireplace for your home. Reach out today!

Frequently asked questions

What does direct vent mean on a fireplace?

It means the fireplace pulls combustion air from outdoors and vents exhaust outside through a sealed system. You can also learn about the B-vent fireplace style if you’d like. 

Does a direct vent fireplace need a chimney?

No. A direct vent gas fireplace uses a coaxial pipe system, not a traditional masonry chimney.

Will a direct vent fireplace heat a room?

Yes, most models provide strong zone heating in the 20,000-40,000 BTU range.

Are direct vent fireplaces worth it?

We think so - especially for homeowners who want clean indoor air, strong heat output, and realistic flames with minimal maintenance. You can also explore our ventless gas fireplace lineup if you’re unsure a direct vent fireplace is the right choice for you.

How much is a direct vent gas fireplace?

Prices typically range from $1,600-$6,500+, depending on size, brand, and features. We can help you find the right direct vent gas fireplace for your budget, and we have hassle-free financing options to make the purchase more accessible.

Best fireplace yet!

This fireplace is outstanding! I’ve installed about 25 electric fireplaces in the past 20 years or so in my business. This fireplace is the best yet. The flame is the most realistic and the blower quieter than any other that I’ve installed. I could not be happier.

Excellent customer service: The Great Fire Company!

Excellent customer service from The Great Fire Company! What could have been a problem was handled the right way, they resolved the issue quickly and professionally. I’m very happy with my new Peterson fireplace: fast ignition, stylish design, and warm. A big improvement over the brand I had before.

Is this an above average cost fireplace? Absolutely it is.

Is this an above average cost fireplace? Absolutely it is and for that you get the best electric fireplace out there that compares to no other. When you want an actual real looking and sounding fire you will want this. The cheap imports are just that..LED’s reflecting against a reflector.

Wife and I love it!

Gas logs were installed today. Wife was always reluctant to start a fire before with real wood logs. Now she’s at ease with the gas log’s remote.

Gas log set

Spoke to Matt several times about fit ,functional quality ,shipping and inventory. I compared pricing and quality to internet and local merchants. After two weeks of research I went with realfyre gas log set which was more than competitive pricing. It came in three business days have not installed yet but looks like a great product. So far it has been a good experience, no pressure and easy ordering. Thanks guys.

Very happy with my purchase!

So far, so good. The set I purchased are the Peterson Real Fyre Charred Frontier Oak Ventless Gas and they look great and work very well. It hasn't been too cold yet, but can't for the first cold front. 30" is the best size for our fireplace on our patio.

Great price and service

The Great Fire Company is legit. I shopped around for a a fireplace insert. The Great Fire Company had the best price. I placed my order for a Majestic Trilliant and 4 days later it was at my doorstep. Great communications from not only on Great Fire, but also the delivery service that Great Fire selected. For such a significant purchase, I wouldn't hesitate to use The Great Fire Company again. Really happy with my purchase.

Empire Boulevard 48" Vent-Free Fireplace
These look very nice in our converted fireplace

These look very nice in our converted fireplace. Our gas company took care of the set up, pressure test and technical bits. We received customer support before we ordered the log set so we would be certain of dimensions. Logs and burner fit perfectly. Set looks spectacular. The gentleman that installed the logs stated he didn't have a lot of personal experience with this brand but knows they have a good reputation. After he installed the set and lit the logs, he mentioned they were really nice based on what he had experience with. As they begin burning for the first time they may set off smoke detectors as they burn of small particles. The installer stated that was normal and suggested lighting logs for a few hours with doors or windows open before lighting them to enjoy heat. Everything looked very nice and was as described. We appreciate the customer support we received and thereliable shipping and tracking of our purchase.
