The Empire Rushmore 30" Clean-Face Direct-Vent Gas Fireplace Insert brings the look and control of a modern gas fireplace to an existing fireplace opening. Built around Empire's TruFlame technology, the Rushmore combines independently controlled burners, a deep ember presentation, and electronic ignition to create a realistic fire while giving you precise control over heat and flame appearance.
A multi-function remote is included for convenient control of flame height, thermostat settings, blower speed, adjustable lighting, and the split-flow secondary burner. The insert also includes a circulating blower, down lighting, barrier screen, and battery backup components for the control system.
The Rushmore 30 is available in Natural Gas and Propane configurations. Natural Gas models deliver up to 30,000 BTU/hr, while Propane models deliver up to 28,500 BTU/hr. The compact insert body is designed for installation into a compatible existing fireplace and uses a 3-inch combustion-air intake with a 4-inch exhaust liner routed through the existing chimney.
