Empire Fireplaces
Empire Fireplaces - When we first started selling Empire fireplaces on Efireplacestore.com, we thought that we had a really good set of fireplaces to offer our valuable customers. Now that we've been selling them for a few years, though, we've had to revise our opinion a little. Empire fireplaces aren't pretty good - they're the best.

I currently have a direct vent gas fireplace 24"H by 40"w (front) 29"w (rear), and 22" deep. I'd like to put a vent free insert in that space without having to remove the old firebox. What do you recommend?
1 Answer
You would need to remove the old firebox. There is no other installation method that is safe.

How much square footage is the Tahoe Luxury 42" rated to heat? Is it durable enough to run for 16 hours a day for the entire winter? Does it have a remote to control temperature?
1 Answer
The Empire Luxury 42" models are capable of heating up to approximately 800-850 square feet. The various models offer thermostat remote controls to turn on and off automatically based on the temperature set on the remote. Please let me know if you would like a quote. If so, simply reply with the full model number (and advise if you will be using natural gas or propane) and your preferences on accessories (front/barrier screen, blower, which brick liner you want, etc.). We also carry the required venting components and I can add those as well if you provide details on how the vent will be run (up and out horizontal termination or vertical termination over the roof). Please reply to this email or call me (Tyler) at 901-786-6861 to discuss. I will look forward to your response.

I lost the remote for my fireplace. Is there a universal remote that works with all models?
1 Answer
There really aren't any Universal Remotes that we offer per say. We would need the model number of your fireplace to determine which remote your unit needs.

We moved into our hour 2 years ago (although the house is at least 12 years old). Fireplace: DVP42FP31N-4 . Serial number 1020433101. We are wondering how old an unit it is and if there are fans available for it.
1 Answer
The replacement fan is still available, as this is not a terribly old unit. I'm afraid the original fan only has a 1 year warranty. The replacement is the Empire FBB-4 Variable-Speed Fireplace Blower with Temperature Switch - FBB-4.

We have an Empire VFP32BP30 fireplace installed with remote starter. Can you instruct me on how to safely light the fireplace manually, should a power outage occur?
1 Answer
As this model will have a standing pilot light and will operate without issue in the event of a power outage, you would not need to re-light the pilot. The blower will never work in the event of an outage as this will always require 120v, but this is the only functionality you will lose.
If the pilot were to go out for some reason, please view page 17 of this installation manual for instructions on how to light the pilot.

Our pilot light on our Empire gas fireplace is very dim and low. My husband tried to turn it up higher but without luck and now the pilot goes off and on. We tried cleaning the thermocouple with emery gas. Now what should we do?
1 Answer
You will need to verify that the incoming gas pressure is sufficient for this fireplace.

We purchased an Empire Boulevard linear vent free fireplace that requires an electrical connection for the remote control. It is the model that has the electronic starter rather than a full-time pilot light. As you are facing the front of the fireplace, where is the electrical connection. Is it in the back on the left or right?
1 Answer
The electrical entrance for the Empire Boulevard is on the right hand side.
