    Can a TV be mounted above the firebox?
    1 Answer
    While the manufacturer does not outline a required height to mount a television above this fireplace, it is not recommended due to the amount of heat that is directed upwards out of the fireplace.

    Can this firebox be used in an underdeck cover system where the area is dried in with roof cover and has a screened opening?
    1 Answer
    Unfortunately, indoor fireplaces may not be installed in this setting due to the added moisture in outside air. Please view our selection of outdoor hearth systems here.

    November 14, 2017
    How many BTUs does this unit generate?
    1 Answer
    Zero, that is a firebox alone. It would be paired with a log set that would produce the heat.

    Donald
    from PA asked:
    August 6, 2017
    Does this have a glass front?
    1 Answer
    No, this is a vent-free gas firebox and does not offer a glass front or optional glass doors, as air must be able to get in and out of the box for combustion. Please note also that this item is a firebox only and does not include a burner or log set.

    from Terrell, TX asked:
    November 11, 2016
    Does this run on natural gas or propane?
    1 Answer
    Because this is just the firebox, the fuel type will be dependent on the vent free gas log set that you choose to install into it. This model can indeed use the optional Empire FBB-5 Automatic Single-Speed Blower - For Breckenridge Fireboxes.
