FAQ

Why choose Empire over other fireplace brands?

Empire offers American-made fireplaces with a strong focus on performance, customization, and reliability. Their vent-free, direct vent, and outdoor fireplaces are designed with higher efficiency ratings, realistic flame presentations, and a wide variety of fuel and control options.

⁠What types of ignition systems does Empire offer

Empire fireplaces come with multiple ignition types to fit different user preferences:
    •    Millivolt (Standing Pilot): Reliable manual operation with remote compatibility
    •    Intermittent Pilot (IPI): Electronic ignition that only lights the pilot when needed
    •    Electronic Valve Control: Found in premium models like the Boulevard and Rushmore series, featuring full remote operation and smart home      compatibility

What is the difference between vented and vent-free fireplaces?

•    Vented fireplaces (Direct Vent, B-Vent):
    •    Require a chimney or venting system
    •    Pull air from outside for combustion
    •    Typically less efficient but offer a traditional wood-burning experience
•    Vent-Free fireplaces:
    •    No chimney or venting required
    •    Higher efficiency (~99%) since no heat escapes through a flue
    •    Safe for indoor use with Oxygen Depletion Sensors (ODS)
 

What are the best Empire fireplaces for outdoor use?

Empire’s Carol Rose Coastal Collection is designed specifically for outdoor fireplaces and fire pits. Popular models include:
    •    48” and 60” Linear Outdoor Fireplaces (stainless steel for durability)
    •    Outdoor Loft Burners (available in 24” and 30” sizes)
    •    Vented & Vent-Free Outdoor Log Sets

 ⁠How do I control an Empire fireplace? Are there smart home options?

Empire offers a variety of control methods:
    •    Manual On/Off Controls (for budget-friendly models)
    •    Wall Switches & Thermostats (standard in most models)
    •    Remote Controls (millivolt and electronic ignition models)
    •    Smart Home Compatibility (Boulevard & Rushmore series support Wi-Fi and Bluetooth operation via mobile apps and home automation systems like Alexa & Google Home)

 

What makes the Boulevard series different from traditional fireplaces?

The Boulevard series is a modern linear gas fireplace designed for a sleek, frameless look. Unlike traditional fireplaces with large log sets, it uses driftwood, crushed glass, or LED lighting effects for a contemporary style. It also features optional see-through configurations and smart remote controls.
