This burner installs into any existing, fully vented wood-burning fireplace equipped with a gas hook-up, making it one of the more straightforward ways to convert a traditional hearth without a full rebuild.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this burner apart mechanically is its integrated radiant fiber heat sink. Most vented burners rely on sand or vermiculite to scatter and diffuse flame — this one doesn't. The radiant fiber element produces convincing, glowing flame on its own, which means one less material to fuss with during installation and one less thing to replace down the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eControl is handled by a millivolt valve with an on\/off switch — a system that operates independently of household electrical power. For those who want more convenience, three optional control accessories are available: a remote control (FRBC), a dedicated wall switch (FWS1), or a switch integrated into a refractory log chunk (SWL). None of these are included by default, but each integrates cleanly with the millivolt system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatibility is intentionally specific here. This burner is designed to work with either the Kensington Forest or the Pioneer Refractory Vented Log Set — and those are the only two log sets it's rated for. That pairing isn't a limitation so much as a design decision: the burner and log sets are engineered as a matched system, which is why the flame presentation looks as cohesive as it does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation also includes a damper clamp, which keeps the fireplace damper in the open position as required for safe vented operation. The burner ships configured for natural gas; LP conversion kits are available separately for those who need them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUL Certified, clearly spec'd, and designed for a specific purpose — this is a burner for the homeowner who wants to do it right rather than do it twice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e55,000 BTU output via millivolt-controlled natural gas burner (LP conversion kits available separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated radiant fiber heat sink produces flame without sand or vermiculite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits existing, fully vented wood-burning fireplaces with gas hook-up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront width: 30 in. | Rear width: 26 in. | Depth: 16 in. | Burner size: 21\/24 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMillivolt valve operates independently of household electrical power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Kensington Forest or Pioneer Refractory Vented Log Set only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional controls available: remote (FRBC), wall switch (FWS1), or switch-in-log-chunk (SWL)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes damper clamp to secure open damper flue during operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUL Certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec-table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21\/24 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBtu Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55,000 BTU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFuel Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural Gas (ships as NG, LP conversion kits available)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eControl Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMillivolt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFront Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRear Width\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBurner Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eElite Radiant Vented\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFeatures\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntegrated radiant fiber heat sink, produces flames without sand or vermiculite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eValve\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMillivolt valve with on\/off switch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCertification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUL Certified\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInstallation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFor existing, fully vented wood-burning fireplace with gas hook-up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Empire Comfort Systems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45054072193232,"sku":"BFR2124MTN","price":1079.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/3999\/5088\/files\/BFR2124MTN_01.jpg?v=1782711533","url":"https:\/\/www.shopsandersgas.com\/products\/empire-comfort-systems-elite-radiant-vented-burner-21-24-in","provider":"Shop Sanders Gas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
