{"product_id":"empire-comfort-systems-blackburn-wood-firebox-54","title":"Empire Comfort Systems Blackburn Wood Firebox, 54\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Blackburn 54\" Wood Firebox from Empire Comfort Systems delivers a viewing area of 54 inches wide by 34 inches tall — a genuine statement opening that demands to be seen rather than merely noticed. At 74 1\/8\" tall and 30 1\/2\" deep, this is a firebox sized for serious architecture, not afterthought niches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne deliberate design choice sets the Blackburn apart from lesser options: it ships without an interior liner. That's not an omission — it's an invitation. Choose from brick, herringbone, or smooth surface refractory finishes, available in natural concrete, white, mocha, or black. Whether your interior leans toward a clean Scandinavian palette or a richly textured traditional hearth, the finish selection means the firebox works with your vision rather than dictating it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside, the firebox is equipped with a heavy-duty log grate built from 3\/4\" bar stock — the kind of grate that holds a serious load of hardwood without flexing or warping after a few seasons of hard use. Fuel flexibility is built in as well: the Blackburn burns traditional firewood as its primary fuel, but can also accommodate gas log sets when paired with an optional ANSI Z21.97-compliant burner kit, giving you options down the road without requiring a full rebuild.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVenting follows standard wood-burning chimney practice, compatible with masonry or an approved factory-built chimney system. The firebox dimensions — 56 7\/8\" wide at the front, expanding to 66 7\/8\" at the back — reflect the kind of careful engineering that makes installation predictable rather than a puzzle your contractor has to solve on-site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe warranty structure reflects the confidence behind the build: 10-year limited coverage on the combustion chamber, a limited lifetime warranty on the glass, and 3-year limited coverage on other parts. The Blackburn 54\" is also available in 36\" and 44\" viewing widths, making it straightforward to spec the right opening for the room rather than compromising.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt $3,389.00, this firebox is a foundational investment in a hearth that will anchor a room for decades. The liner finish you choose today can be reconsidered tomorrow — but the quality of the firebox box itself is the part that's not easily changed later, and that's exactly where the Blackburn earns its place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e54\" W × 34\" H viewing area — one of the largest openings in the Blackburn series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShips liner-free, ready for brick, herringbone, or smooth refractory finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive liner color options: natural concrete, white, mocha, or black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty log grate constructed from 3\/4\" bar stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with traditional firewood or optional ANSI Z21.97 gas log burner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront width 56 7\/8\"; back width 66 7\/8\"; overall height 74 1\/8\"; depth 30 1\/2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard wood-burning chimney venting — masonry or approved factory-built system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10-year limited warranty on combustion chamber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited lifetime warranty on glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-year limited warranty on other parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in 36\", 44\", and 54\" models for flexible sizing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec-table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth (Front)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e56 7\/8\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth (Back)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e66 7\/8\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e74 1\/8\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 1\/2\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eViewing Area\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e54\" W × 34\" H\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eViewing Height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 1\/2\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFuel Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWood burning\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLog Grate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeavy duty 3\/4\" bar stock\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo Brick Liner\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncluded (no interior liner)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLiner Options\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrick, herringbone, or smooth finishes in natural concrete, white, mocha, or black\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty - Combustion Chamber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10-year limited\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty - Glass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLimited lifetime\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty - Other Parts\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-year limited\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVenting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard wood-burning chimney venting (masonry or approved chimney system)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Empire Comfort Systems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45054097457360,"sku":"WB54FB0F","price":3389.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.shopsandersgas.com\/products\/empire-comfort-systems-blackburn-wood-firebox-54","provider":"Shop Sanders Gas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
