What Are Vent Free Natural Gas Products?

A vent-free natural gas heating appliance operates without a chimney, flue or vent, so you can install one just about anywhere without making a hole in the wall or roof.


 

 

 

 

 


A variety of vent-free natural gas products are available including space heaters, fireplaces, stoves, fireplace inserts, and gas logs.

Modern vent-free natural gas heating appliances:


  • Are affordable to buy:
  • Provide heat for pennies per hour;
  • Deliver a remarkable 99% energy efficiency;
  • Provide reliable warmth during power failures;
  • Add aesthetic beauty and value to a home;
  • Are design-certified by national testing laboratories to the latest national safety standards (ANSI Z21.11.2);
  • Are proven to meet today's most rigorous air quality recommendations.

 

Well over 13 million American homes - and tens of millions of households worldwide - already enjoy the comfort and convenience of vent-free natural gas heating products.

In fact, more Americans are buying vent free natural gas appliances than any other type of supplemental gas heating product.


HOW THEY WORK


Vent-free natural gas heating products operate on natural gas - most require no electricity. Every vent free room heater, fireplace, log set, or stove is permanently connected to a line fueled by natural gas.


AN OUTSTANDING SAFETY RECORD


Vent-free gas heating appliances have compiled an outstanding safety record in millions of American homes. That's because, since 1980, vent-free gas products have been equipped with a unique safety pilot system called an Oxygen Detection Safety-Pilot, or ODS.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Millions Of American
Homes Now Have Vent-Free Supplementary Natural Gas Heating Products.   Why Do More And More Home Buyers Demand These Highly Efficient, Clean-Burning Appliances?

 

Vent-free means there’s no need to install a vent to the outside, no chimney, no hole in the wall or roof. All you need is access to a natural gas line, so you can place a vent-free gas appliance just about anywhere.

FACT:  Vent-free products offer substantial savings on installation costs.

FACT:    Home buyers value vent-free appliances for their beauty and their ability to significantly reduce heating bills.

FACT:    Vent-free products are proven to be the safest supplemental heating product in use today.

FACT:    Vent-free appliances meet or exceed nationally-recognized Indoor Air Quality guidelines.

Annually, more than 1 million supplementary gas vent-free heating appliances are sold today. It’s a grassroots revolution in home heating comfort.

Homeowners delight in bringing their friends and neighbors in on their discovery: that vent free supplementary heating is a technology whose time has come. So just ask the comfy-warm owners of vent-free gas appliances what kind of supplementary heating they’d like in their next home. You’ll hear “I love my VENT-FREEDOM!” millions of times.

But perhaps even more important than the entrancing beauty of vent-free appliances is their practicality. Today’s home buyers want heating security. They want safe, clean, efficient heat that is always there when they need it.

Wide Range of Sizing. Vent-free appliances are available in sizes ranging from 2,000 to 40,000 Btu. These appliances can be controlled by the homeowner to deliver just the right level of heating comfort.

Meet Recommended Humidification Requirements. An independent research study has verified that vent-free gas products provide a small portion of desirable indoor humidity, exceeding Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers recommendations only in small, tightly-constructed homes where the product is oversized for the space and operated at output levels that exceed human comfort.
