Our home came with the CD36RN fireplace. I wanted to get the thermostatically controlled blower. We ordered it from the FirePlace Store. It arrived in two days. My husband and I installed it ourselves. I was pleased with customer service with answering all of our questions.Dierdre in Atlanta, GAFMI Cottage 36 Inch Millivolt Direct Vent Fireplace - Natural Gas Rear Vent

Answer:
Rear vent systems are designed with venting horizontally through an outside wall in mind. While they can be used in a top vent setup, it is generally better to purchase a fireplace that is already configured as a top vent model. Depending on the pipe that is existing, you may be able to adapt the unit to work with the current chimney.By Toby Wiik from Carlsbad, CA on July 18, 2012

Answer:
Depending on your jurisdiction, it may or may not be suitable for use. In some areas of California, there is a restriction against using millivolt systems that utilize a standing pilot light, which this model has. You may need to look for a direct vent fireplace with an electronic ignition, which eliminates the standing pilot. A similar model to this with an electronic ignition would be the Vantage Hearth 36 Inch Upgradable VersaFire Direct Vent Natural Gas Fireplace.We have several other options for 36 inch direct vent fireplaces with electronic ignitions. Please let us know if you are interested in other models.

You are correct. At one time, FMI offered this unit as a B-vent/Direct Vent convertible model. It is shown in the photo as a B-vent conversion.The direct vent model that we currently offer would have the sealed glass window and coaxial vent system that is characteristic of a direct vent model.

This unit is available in both top and rear vent versions. The default photo provided to us from the manufacturer only depicts the top vent version. However, if the item title states that the unit is a rear vent, this is the vent configuration that will be shipped.By Celeste from Garland, Texas on November 23, 2012

Answer:
By your description, it sounds as if you have a prefabricated fireplace currently installed, so a manufactured unit such as the FMI Cottage could certainly be used to replace it.By karen delbeck from Burlington, VT on November 24, 2012

Answer:
Being that the unit uses a tempered glass pane, I would definitely recommend using a screen or barrier around the unit, as the glass will be significantly hotter than a ceramic glass unit.The unit is indeed suitable to heat a 500 square foot area.
A blower is available and can be located in the "Accessories" tab above.

Answer:
Based on current national average gas prices, this unit would cost approximately 25 cents per hour of operation. If you were to use this unit for an average of 15 hours of time per week, that would add approximately $15 a month to your gas bill. Local cost of fuel will vary, so the final number will be dependent on your gas supplier's rates.
