Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Redstone 42-inch can be installed in two ways: it slides directly into an existing zero-clearance wood-burning fireplace, or it requires 10 to 12 inches of wall depth for a built-in flush-mount look.

A built-in thermostat automatically maintains your desired temperature between 68°F and 88°F, and the flames can also be used without heat for year-round ambiance.
