Can fiberglass insulation be installed directly behind the fireplace?
1 Answer
Yes, however, the insulation will need to be secured so that it does not fall against the fireplace in the future.

Does the flame have two settings, low & high, or just one? Is there any light package that comes with this unit?
1 Answer
The remote has six flame modulation settings and no lighting is offered for this fireplace. If you are looking for a similar model that would include interior lighting, lighting is standard on the Empire 36 Inch Tahoe Luxury Direct Vent Natural Gas Fireplace with Remote Control.

My gas service is bottled propane only. Will this require any modification?
1 Answer
If you are using LP gas, it would be best to order that unit in LP from the start. Other than that no modifications would be needed for LP.

The height on the main product description page for this unit is listed at 34 and 3/4 inches tall (DVP36FP91). The manual shows the height as 37 and 5/8 inches. Can you verify the height of this unit?
1 Answer
The framing height (total height including standoffs) is 37 5/8", which results in a framing height requirement of 37 3/4". The height of the fireplace itself (minus the standoffs/flue collar) is 34 3/4". We apologize for the confusion.

The remote starts the fireplace, but the flame is blue and only lasts 20 seconds and then goes out and can't be restarted for 1/2 hour. Not sure what the problem is.
1 Answer
Many times this can be caused by a blockage in the burner orifice. We recommend checking this orifice.

from IL asked:
February 17, 2015
In the intermittent mode, does the pilot come on and off when a certain temperature is reached? Is the module box suppose to have the switch on intermittent and the remote switch on, or is the remote switch suppose to be off?
1 Answer
When in intermittent mode, the pilot assembly will not ignite unless the unit is calling for heat. The pilot will light and stabilize, then allowing the main burner to ignite. The pilot will extinguish with the main burner assembly. The remote switch should be in the "Remote" position on the main control module in order for the system to be controlled by the included multi-function remote.

Great Addition
This was a planned purchase for about 2-3 years and we finally got the renovations started this February to accommodate this fireplace. We planned to open up the entire first floor and install the fireplace in the living room, letting it supplement the existing heating system and make the whole first floor cozy. This unit has exceeded our expectations so far. Since installing it in early October, we have enjoyed it many evenings and many mornings... what an addition. It is a large fireplace and puts out a fair amount of heat with the flame set on low and the blower fan speed on low, as well. I would say that it might be too much heat output with the blower fan on high, it really heats up the first floor nicely. It was straightforward to install and I give it full marks for quality. Very pleased.
Big and bold, puts out a lot of heat, easy to install, many options and accessories

Wonderful double-sided Insert
We busted out a wall and had our original gas insert changed to this double sided unit. It arrived quickly, delivery was quick and easy, and the unit is high quality and beautiful. My contractor said that it was very easy to install. We are so happy with our purchase!

Empire Tahoe Premium Fireplace
This fireplace insert turned out to be a good choice. The application for our customers needs was pretty spot on. It shipped to our company on a pallet which meant for a secure delivery. Its construction was a quality build. The only draw back that we found, was the instructions. The manual is very general for many styles, which made for a more cumbersome set up and programming. However overall we were very pleased with our
experience.

Very happy with the product
This item has been a pleasant surprise. I was worried about the remote control functioning properly, but it is functioning over my expectations. I really like the thermostat function in the remote that will turn the unit on when the temperature in the room drops below the set temperature. I did some price shopping before I purchased the unit and this unit provided a lot of value for the money I spent.

Fan could be a bit quieter on the higher speeds, maybe an option for more $$.

The fireplace was delivered quickly, came undamaged and the installation was relatively simple. The remote control functions are great, we use the "thermostat" function of the unit to warm up our house.

LOOKS GREAT, FEELS GREAT
Everything we hoped it would be. Installed easily, with a lot of help from my HVAC pro neighbor next door. Looks great and puts a lot of heat into the room. Natural gas bill for January, total house, $56,00. Great investment.
