Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Empire Innsbrook 28-Inch Vent-Free Gas Fireplace Insert produces up to 28,000 BTUs of heat with approximately 99% efficiency, meaning nearly all the energy generated stays in your room. It is designed as a supplemental zone-heating source and can comfortably heat rooms in the range of 700–1,000 square feet, depending on insulation quality, ceiling height, and climate.

  • No chimney or venting is required — the vent-free design allows you to install it virtually anywhere in your home, either as an insert into an existing wood-burning fireplace or as a standalone zero-clearance fireplace. Because it is an unvented appliance, it draws combustion air from the room itself, so adequate room ventilation must be maintained; note that installation may also be prohibited in some local jurisdictions, so always check local codes before purchasing.

  • The unit features a built-in Oxygen Depletion Sensor (ODS) that automatically shuts off the burner if oxygen levels in the room drop to unsafe levels, providing a critical safety safeguard for a vent-free appliance. It also comes standard with a fine mesh barrier screen to protect children and pets from inadvertently touching the hot surfaces.

  • The insert is available in two ignition options: a Millivolt (standing pilot) system, which has a pilot that is always lit and requires no external power to operate, and an Electronic Intermittent Pilot Ignition (IPI) system, which eliminates the standing pilot to save energy but uses battery backup so it can still be used during a power outage. Both systems include a manual on/off switch and are compatible with optional Empire thermostat or remote control accessories.

  • Empire backs the Innsbrook Vent-Free Insert with a Limited Lifetime Parts Warranty plus a Five-Year Limited Labor Warranty on the combustion chamber and heat exchanger, and a Five-Year Parts and Labor Warranty on all other components. Remote controls, thermostats, lights, and accessories carry a separate one-year limited warranty, and the warranty applies only to the original purchaser and is non-transferable.
