A Direct-Vent Fireplace Insert turns your existing wood-burning fireplace into an efficient gas-fired heat source.

A wood-burning fireplace sends more than half of its heat up the flue, creating negative pressure in your home, which draws in outside air through gaps in doors and windows that actually makes your home colder. A wood-fire can also create ash and fumes that dirty your home and aggravate your allergies.

Direct-Vent Fireplace Inserts are classified as zone heating appliances. Zone heating is inherently more efficient than your existing wood-burning fireplace or your central furnace. Unlike a central furnace, which wastes 20 to 30 percent of the heat energy through ductwork losses and sends much of the remaining heat to unoccupied rooms, zone heating creates and transmits the heat directly into the room. This lets you turn down your whole-house thermostat and use your fireplace insert to efficiently warm the room you use most.

Direct-Vent Insert uses readily available 3-inch flexible co-linear vent pipes. One draws air from outside your home, and the other sends flue products directly outdoors. The flexible metal venting allows the insert to install easily in a site-built or manufactured fireplace.

Fireplace barrier screens, required for all direct-vent systems, protect you and your family from inadvertently touching the hot glass.

Traditional Innsbrook Direct-Vent Inserts in three sizes – small, medium, and large – to fit most wood-burning fireplaces. Choose Millivolt ignition with standing pilot to provide heat, even in the absence of electric power, or Intermittent Pilot, which saves even more energy. IP systems can operate with a standing or intermittent pilot during power outages.

Innsbrook Direct-Vent Inserts feature optional liners and hand-painted ceramic fiber logs, nestled atop the variable flame height burner, to create an exceptionally attractive traditional fireplace. With inputs of 20,500 BTUs, 26,000 BTUs, and 28,500 BTUs, the Direct-Vent insert’s unique Slope Glaze Burner produces natural flickering flames that dance and delight – warming your heart as it warms your soles.

Lighting and managing a wood fire takes time and work – and more than a little patience to get it right. Your Innsbrook or Loft fireplace insert lights at the flick of a switch to produce consistent, reliable heat, even when electric power fails. Add the convenience of an optional thermostat, wireless wall thermostat, remote control, or thermostat remote control, and enjoy all the comfort of a warm cozy fire without the mess and hassle.

Options & Accessories

Your new direct-vent insert will require a surround or decorative front.

Innsbrook traditional models, choose an old-world style three-piece cast iron surround with rich details, or one of our steel surrounds with 9-inch top and 6-inch sides, 6-inch top and sides, or 6-inch top and 3-inch sides. For installations where your Innsbrook insert does not rest on the hearth, we offer a bottom cover to complete the surround.

Decorative Fronts for traditional inserts are available in three styles in black or bronze finishes. Each front attaches in minutes to the 1-piece metal frame (available in Matte Black or Bronze). Included barrier screens protect you and your family from inadvertently touching the hot glass – but without detracting from the overall view of the fireplace.

To cover larger hearth openings, install the optional shroud. At 48 inches wide and just under 38 inches tall, it provides a clean transition between the surround and the existing fireplace. The bottom cover completes the shroud.
