New TRUE Launching Next Month!
Key Highlights – IntelliFire Touch, Finer Screen, Black Glass Interior Panels and Heat Out
Our flagship premium traditional gas fireplace will receive multiple updates to separate it even further from the competition. The TRUE is the perfect fireplace for the discerning consumer looking to make a statement with the most realistic-looking Direct Vent gas fireplace available. Updates include:
- IntelliFire Touch control system comes standard
- New Firescreen, Arched, and Forge fronts now feature a finer screen that is less visible than the current version to offer a clearer view of the fire
- New black glass interior panel option on the 36″ and 42″ models. The black glass panels are perfect for that consumer looking for a more transitional look and the dynamic impact reflecting the fire. We showcased this product at last month’s Internationals Builders’ Show, and it stopped people in their tracks. Many thought it was a multi-sided fireplace because of all the reflection.
- Heat Out option – this allows consumers to manage the heat of the fireplace. It will redirect 40% of the heat from the unit outside.
- Castlewood refractory discontinued and being replaced by black glass option
The last order date is 2/24/17 for Castlewood model
What’s not changing:
- Framing dimensions, log set up, venting configurations
