Ortal Clear Tunnel Series
A MINIMALIST LINEAR GAS FIREPLACE DESIGN YOU CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH.
The choice is clear when it comes to choosing your next see-through, direct-vent gas fireplace - the Clear Tunnel Series from Ortal has a generous fire viewing area + one of the narrowest framing dimensions available.
HEAT BARRIER "COOL WALL" TECHNOLOGY.
Ortal fireplaces are distinctive in the Canadian market because they have moved beyond the “clean face” trim typical of direct-vent gas fireplaces available today to adopt a truly frameless design. Eliminating the metal trim that usually frames single-sided direct vent gas fireplaces enables the Ortal firebox to sit slightly recessed when installed (by 1-inch). This recess creates a chase above the firebox that naturally draws heat that radiates from the fireplace, and redirects it up and out of convection grills installed above or adjacent to the fireplace, or through a reveal incorporated into the fireplace wall structure.
This air re-direct serves to reduce the amount of heat that would typically accumulate on the wall above your fireplace, instead forcing the heat to circulate efficiently throughout the room. This special design allows you to hang your artwork or television directly above the fireplace without risking any heat damage.
CLEAR TUNNEL SERIES FIREPLACE FEATURES:
Beautiful, variegated flame pattern with 6-9” flame heights
Minimal 22-1/5" framing depth
Operated using a thermostatic remote control that allows the user to regulate flame size and heat output
Available with a safety barrier screen** or fan-assisted double glass system that works to redistribute radiant heat emitted from the interior glass layer up through a chase and into the room, forcing more effective heat circulation. This system is proven to significantly reduce the temperature of the outer glass layer to less than 175 degrees fahrenheit, in compliance with industry standards
Firestone, fireglass and ceramic log/ceramic branch set options available for the interior firebox media
