What is a B-Vent fireplace?
Sometimes called naturally vented, a B-Vent is a traditional gas fireplace designed to emulate the wood-burning hearth. It carries the CSA approval as a decorative appliance and takes its name from the use of class B chimney, commonly used with other vented gas appliances. Combustion air is drawn from the home and exhausted at the roof only. Glass doors or panels are sometimes used, but the glass is loose, i.e., not sealed to the combustion chamber. While Monessen B-Vents are designed to provide some radiant heat, they will carry furnace-heated air up the flue. Most jurisdictions approve these for bedrooms or baths. An outside air kit is required.
