This millivolt version does it all on a self-powering valve: no circuit, no outage anxiety, just a match-lit pilot generating its own control voltage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTurn-down is the luxury within the luxury. On natural gas the burner modulates from 37,000 down to 26,000 BTU, so the same firebox that carries a January evening also idles through October without roasting the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis fireplace is part of the Tahoe Clean-Face Luxury Direct-Vent family - use the size selector above to compare every size and control option.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e37,000 BTU \/ 26,000 BTU range:\u003c\/strong\u003e the strongest 36\" clean-face in the Tahoe catalog (34,000\/27,000 on propane).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePowerless operation:\u003c\/strong\u003e millivolt valve runs the fire - and its FRBC\/FRBTC remotes - with no house electricity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeep-view firebox:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15-1\/4\" interior depth behind a 35-15\/16\" x 27-1\/2\" opening;
