Customize to fit your style
Accessorize your Boulevard linear vent-free fireplace with reflective black porcelain liner (all models) or White Porcelain (single-sided models only) to create the illusion of unimaginable depth; or, opt for the stainless steel liner (single-sided models only) for a brighter contemporary feel.
Choose a decorative 1½-inch beveled front in matte black, a simple black ¾-inch frame, or have your contractor install tile, stone, or plaster right to the fireplace opening– the ultimate in design simplicity.
Create a beachfront cottage look with the driftwood log set – perfectly proportioned to the Boulevard’s lines – plus an assortment of stones. The logs and stones are molded from ceramic fiber and hand-painted for rich detail. A fine mesh barrier screen comes standard with each model.
Two Ignition Systems to Choose From: Millivolt or Electronic
The Electronic Ignition eliminates the intermittent pilot system- saving energy and your money. In the event of a power outage, your boulevard fireplace can operate on battery backup mode.
The millivolt system operates with a standing pilot and includes an on/pff remote control (millivolt only available on single-sided models)
Optional Decorative Media
Crushed decorative glass is required. Start with Clear Frost, Copper Reflective, or Bronze Reflective, which allow the LED lighting to show from under the burner. Additional decorative media is optional and may be used for accent only.
