You may only know of Rinnai for their tankless hot water heaters but they also have an extremely efficient line of vent-free fan convector gas heaters. The FC824 is a great solution for hard to heat rooms. It includes a convection fan that helps to evenly distribute the 24,000 BTUs (NG; 22,000 BTUs LP) of warmth throughout your space. It features modulating technology which includes a modulating gas valve and a variable-speed blower. In combination, this allows the furnace to use the exact amount of gas needed to produce the heat required for your space. Because it is a ventless heater, it does not need to be installed near an exterior wall - you just need to have the gas line located appropriately. Of course, you also need to have the appropriate minimum clearances - which are 2 inches all around (top, back, and sides) and 30 inches in front of the heater.
The FC824 also features Rinnai technology that consistently and constantly monitors the temperature so if a door opens and lets in cold air, it will be regulated automatically for your comfort. Another advantage of being vent-free is the fact that there is virtually no heat loss with this heater. It provides approximately 99.9% efficiency making it one of the most fuel-efficient heating products on the market, not to mention its clean appearance and quiet operation! It has 44dB / 30dB (H/L) noise levels.
The easy to use control panel is located on the top of the unit. The push-button electronic ignition means there is no standing pilot on this furnace, offering an additional layer of safety for you and your family. The touch button controls to set your temperatures and modes are clearly labeled and easy to use. The temperature settings range from 60°F - 80°F in two-degree increments. It also has a timer function to allow you to delay the start of the heater for up to 24 hours as well as a 60 minute time delay to turn the furnace off. The LED Temperature Display will show either the time of day, temperature, or error code messages. There is even a filter indicator that will light up when the filter needs to be cleaned.
This heater is intended for use as a supplemental heat source. It is suitable for homes, apartments, and condominiums, residential or commercial settings. It is also a modular/mobile home approved. It is forced combustion, forced convection gas heater.

Researched and ordered my fireplace from US FIreplace Store. Pricing was a fair value however, the customer service was EXCELLENT! I had an issue with the direct vent venting. I called US Fireplace and the correct items were sent out the next day AND Janessa stayed on top of my return authorization and sent me the permissions and documents I needed to return the incorrect item and no cost to me, including return shipping. Overall, I am a very satisfied customer and my fireplace looks and operates flawlessly. I am glad that I selected US FIreplace to source my direct vent fireplace. Thank you for the great service.

I had placed an order, through Lowe's Home Improvement, for an Electric Firebox: Revillusion RBF42. Ordered 1st part of January. Was told I would have it in 3 weeks. When checking to see is it came in, was told it was delayed to 3/15. Was then told is was delayed until 4/25. Waited until 4/27 to check on it. Was then told it was now delayed until August. This firebox was going in a new Sun Room addition. I could not get my final inspection until the Firebox was installed. I went on line and googled for this same product. US Fireplace Store web site was given to me. This was on a Saturday. I call and reached a very nice man. Explain what I was look for. He checked and told me they had 30 of them in stock. I almost fell out of my chair. I clarified with him the product I was wanting. I ask how soon could I get it. He told me it would ship today. Again, was amazed. It arrived on the following Monday. What a pleasure and a relief working with US Fireplace Store and their employees. Exceed my expectations.

Great prices, quick delivery and fast hassle free services on the issue I encountered. I had purchased an electric fireplace unit that would not fit into the existing fireplace space. With one email I was able to get the wrong fireplace refunded and picked up at my home at no extra cost and the new one I purchased and delivered free of charge. Great company.
