{"product_id":"empire-vail-36-vent-free-see-through-peninsula-fireplace","title":"Empire Vail 36 Vent-Free See-Through Peninsula Fireplace","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vail 36 See-Through Peninsula fireplace opens a 36-inch wide by 22-inch tall window into living flame — on both sides at once. Designed as a true peninsula unit, it anchors a room divider or wraps a corner without the structural commitment of a traditional masonry hearth. No chimney. No flue. Just fire, visible from two directions, on demand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the unit is Empire's Slope Glaze Vista Burner, which produces a layered, dimensional flame pattern rather than the flat, front-row-only effect of a conventional burner. Output is adjustable between 25,000 and 38,000 BTU\/hr via millivolt control, giving you a genuine range from a quiet ambient glow to a serious heat source. The firebox interior is finished in banded ceramic firebrick — a liner material chosen for its heat retention and its ability to develop the kind of warm, aged appearance that only improves with use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOverall dimensions come in at 39 inches wide, 37¾ inches tall, and 24 inches deep, with a rough framing requirement of 39\" W x 38\" H x 23\" D. The unit ships at 175 lbs, so plan your installation accordingly — this is not a last-minute project. Front combustible material clearance is 36 inches minimum, and sidewall clearance is 1¾ inches minimum; both figures matter during framing and should be confirmed with your installer before construction begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Vail 36 is built for accessory integration. The LSU24RR-2 24-inch Refractory Log Set is the compatible log set for this firebox (ordered separately), and the top of the firebox accepts an LK2 Accent Light Kit that adds subtle illumination independent of the flame itself. For ember aesthetics, the unit is compatible with both the EK-1 Embers Kit and the PE-20 Platinum Embers. If you want active air circulation, the optional FBB4 Variable Speed Automatic Blower can be added to the installation. Gas inlet is 3\/8\".\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe see-through peninsula configuration is not a common format, and it demands a fireplace built specifically for it — not a standard insert shoehorned into an opening it wasn't designed for. The Vail 36 is that specific product, with dimensions, clearances, and compatible components documented to support a clean, code-conscious installation from framing through finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e36\" W x 22\" H see-through viewing area visible from both sides simultaneously\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlope Glaze Vista Burner with 25,000–38,000 BTU\/hr adjustable output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMillivolt control system — no household electricity required for ignition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBanded ceramic firebrick liner for heat retention and long-term aesthetics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVent-free design — no chimney or flue installation required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeninsula configuration purpose-built for room dividers and open-plan layouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with LSU24RR-2 24\" Refractory Log Set (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLK2 Accent Light Kit installs in top of firebox (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with EK-1 Embers Kit and PE-20 Platinum Embers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional FBB4 Variable Speed Automatic Blower available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall dimensions: 39\" W x 37¾\" H x 24\" D | Ships at 175 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRough framing: 39\" W x 38\" H x 23\" D | 3\/8\" gas inlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec-table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePremium Vent-Free See-Through Fireplace\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFuel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural Gas\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\u003eMaximum Btu Input\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e38,000 BTU\/hr\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum Btu Input\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25,000 BTU\/hr\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight Without Standoff\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e37 3\/4\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e39\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGas Inlet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/8\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eViewing Area Dimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36\" W x 22\" H\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOverall Dimensions (With Rear)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e39\" W (Front) x 37.75\" H x 24\" D x 39\" W (Rear)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRough Framing Dimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e39\" W x 38\" H x 23\" D\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLiner\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBanded Ceramic Firebrick\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBurner System\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlope Glaze Vista Burner\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible Log Set\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLSU24RR-2 (24-inch Refractory Log Set)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCombustible Material Clearance (Front)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36\" minimum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSidewall Clearance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 3\/4\" minimum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eItem Weight Lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e175.00\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Empire Comfort Systems","offers":[{"title":"Natural Gas","offer_id":45054092574928,"sku":"VFP36SP32EN","price":3029.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Propane","offer_id":45054092607696,"sku":"VFP36SP32EP","price":3029.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/3999\/5088\/files\/VFP36SP32E_01.jpg?v=1782712000","url":"https:\/\/www.shopsandersgas.com\/products\/empire-vail-36-vent-free-see-through-peninsula-fireplace","provider":"Shop Sanders Gas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
