{"product_id":"empire-breckenridge-premium-42-vent-free-firebox-flush-front","title":"Empire Breckenridge Premium 42\" Vent-Free Firebox, Flush Front","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Breckenridge Premium 42\" Vent-Free Firebox starts with one of the most important numbers in fireplace shopping: a 40\" wide by 27.81\" high viewing area. That's a generous window into whatever flame you choose — and that choice, notably, is entirely yours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis firebox is a universal platform. It accepts any certified vent-free burner and log set, sold separately, which means you're not locked into a single fuel style, log aesthetic, or BTU output. Prefer the warmth of a dense ceramic log arrangement? Go for it. Want something more contemporary? That's on the table too. The firebox itself establishes the architecture; you curate the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe flush-front, circulating design keeps things clean at the wall plane while pushing warm air into the room rather than straight up — a practical advantage that doesn't require any visual compromise. Inside, a matte black finish provides neutral contrast that lets logs and flame read clearly without competing finishes pulling focus. The exterior face is a matching black flush front.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation starts from a rough framing opening of 44\" (W) x 41.5\" (H) x 21\" (D), with overall unit dimensions of 43.5\" wide, 41.12\" tall, and 21.43\" deep (36.25\" at the rear). Every measurement you need to hand to your contractor is accounted for in the spec sheet — no guesswork required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded in the box: a junction box, a standard hood, and a matte black finish that carries through from the interior to the accessories. Not included: the burner, log set, and liner — all of which are selected to your preference and purchased separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe optional accessory ecosystem is notably broad. Four ceramic fiber liner options let you refine the interior look. Decorative accessories are available in three styles and two finishes. Beyond that, optional blower kits, lighting kits, extended hoods, door sets, door frames, outer frame kits, and mantels all exist in the Empire Breckenridge family — so what ships at $1,019 can grow into a fully finished fireplace surround without ever leaving the product line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eManufactured in the USA by Empire Comfort Systems, the VFP42FB0F is compatible with both natural gas and propane burner configurations, making it adaptable to your home's existing fuel source. BTU output depends entirely on the burner and log set you install — specify those separately based on your heating needs and room size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you want a firebox that makes no assumptions about your taste and every accommodation for your build, the Breckenridge 42\" is a well-considered starting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40\" W x 27.81\" H viewing area — one of the largest in its class\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal compatibility: accepts any certified vent-free burner and log set (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlush-front, circulating design delivers warmth into the room, not just upward\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatte black interior finish provides clean contrast for logs and flame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRough framing dimensions: 44\" W x 41.5\" H x 21\" D for straightforward installation planning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with both natural gas and propane burner configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes junction box and standard matte black hood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional ceramic fiber liners available in four styles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports optional blower kits, lighting kits, door sets, extended hoods, and full mantel surround packages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecorative accessories available in three styles and two finishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufactured in the USA by Empire Comfort Systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBurner, log set, and liner sold separately — fully customizable to your specification\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\u003eVFP42FB0F\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Name\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBreckenridge Premium 42 Vent-Free Firebox, Flush Front Circulating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e42 inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVent-free firebox\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFuel Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural gas or propane\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBurning Style\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCirculating (Flush Front)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInterior Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatte Black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFace\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack Flush Face\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOverall Dimensions (Front Width X Height X Depth)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43.5\" (W) x 41.12\" (H) x 21.43\" (D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOverall Dimensions (Rear Width)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36.25\" (W)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRough Framing Dimensions (Width X Height X Depth)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e44\" (W) x 41.5\" (H) x 21\" (D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFraming Dimensions (Per Distributor)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e38 7\/8\" (H) x 44 3\/8\" (W) x 20 9\/16\" (D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eViewing Area Dimensions (Width X Height)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40\" (W) x 27.81\" (H)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOpening Dimensions (Per Distributor)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e27 3\/8\" (H) x 40\" (W) x 17 7\/8\" (D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOverall Depth (Premium)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 7\/16 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncluded Accessories\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJunction Box, Standard Hood, Matte Black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBtu\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBased on installed logs and burner set\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEmpire Comfort Systems\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade In\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Empire Comfort Systems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45054092706000,"sku":"VFP42FB0F","price":1019.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/3999\/5088\/files\/VFP42FB0F_01.jpg?v=1782712002","url":"https:\/\/www.shopsandersgas.com\/products\/empire-breckenridge-premium-42-vent-free-firebox-flush-front","provider":"Shop Sanders Gas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
