{"product_id":"empire-boulevard-vent-free-linear-fireplace-30","title":"Empire Boulevard SL Vent-Free Linear Fireplace, 30\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Boulevard SL starts with a dimension that matters most in modern construction: a 5.5-inch depth. That's shallow enough to recess fully into a 2x6 framed wall, partially into a 2x4, or to surface-mount cleanly on any wall without carving into the structure at all. At 30.25 inches wide and 17.88 inches tall, it proportions well across a range of wall scales without demanding a full architectural feature wall to justify itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside, a linear burner operates on natural gas with intermittent pilot ignition — meaning the pilot lights on demand rather than burning continuously. Output sits at 14,000 BTU, appropriate for supplemental heating in well-insulated spaces. The vent-free design means no flue, no chase, and no exterior penetration required, which keeps installation straightforward and the heat output efficient since nothing escapes up a chimney.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe interior finish is matte black — a deliberate, non-reflective backdrop that keeps the flame as the focal point rather than the firebox itself. A fine mesh barrier screen provides the required safety separation between the flame and the room, while a tempered glass deflector at the front manages radiant heat direction without obscuring the view.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhere the Boulevard SL earns its flexibility is in finish and control customization. The unit is compatible with two decorative front panels: the DFSL30MBL in a mitered black profile and the DFSL30VBL in a convex black profile — both sold separately. For surface-mount installations, the DCSL30LBL decorative wrap is required to finish the exposed sides cleanly. Recessed installations can be dressed with the optional DFSL30PBL black trim accessory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eControl options are equally broad. The unit accepts the FRBC battery remote for basic on\/off operation, the FRBTC battery remote thermostat, the FRBTP programmable remote, the TRW wireless wall thermostat, and the TMV wall thermostat reed switch. Most households will find an option in that list that suits how they actually want to operate a fireplace — whether that's a remote from the couch or a wall thermostat that treats it like any other heat source.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 50 lbs and with a valve type of IP matched to a #50 orifice at 3.5 inches w.c. manifold pressure, this is a unit designed to be installed once and run reliably. It ships as the natural gas configuration; verify your gas supply before ordering and confirm wall framing depth when planning the installation approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5.5\" depth — fully recesses in 2x6 walls, partially in 2x4, or surface-mounts on any wall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30.25\" wide linear burner with matte black rear panel and tempered glass deflector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e14,000 BTU natural gas output via intermittent pilot ignition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVent-free design requires no flue, chase, or exterior wall penetration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine mesh barrier screen included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with DFSL30MBL (Mitered Black) and DFSL30VBL (Convex Black) decorative fronts (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDCSL30LBL decorative wrap required for surface-mount finish (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional DFSL30PBL black trim for recessed installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports five control accessories: battery remotes, programmable remote, wireless wall thermostat, and reed switch thermostat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP valve type, #50 orifice, 3.5\" w.c. manifold pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeighs 50 lbs — manageable for a two-person installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec-table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVFSL30FP70N\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Name\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBoulevard SL Vent-Free Linear Fireplace\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFuel Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural Gas\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIgnition Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntermittent Pilot\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBtu Output\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14,000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30.25 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17.88 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.5 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVent Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVent-Free\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInstallation Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecessed\/Surface Mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBurner Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLinear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRear Panel Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatte black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFront Panel Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTempered glass deflector\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBarrier Screen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFine mesh\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManifold Pressure Setting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5 inches w.c.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eValve Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrifice\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e#50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Empire Comfort Systems","offers":[{"title":"Natural Gas","offer_id":45054094934224,"sku":"VFSL30FP70N","price":2319.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Propane","offer_id":45054094966992,"sku":"VFSL30FP70P","price":2319.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/3999\/5088\/files\/VFSL30FP70_01.jpg?v=1782712054","url":"https:\/\/www.shopsandersgas.com\/products\/empire-boulevard-vent-free-linear-fireplace-30","provider":"Shop Sanders Gas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
