Gas Furnace & Direct Vent Manufacturers
Direct Vent Fireplace Manufacturers
I have a 90 year old gorgeous porcelain coated cast iron gas space heater. You can see the burning gas through real mica windows. My gas heater is low on efficiency but high on looks. This look is now again in vogue. Several of the direct vent fireplace manufacturers make replica free standing stoves similar to mine. They are excellent conversation pieces. Be sure to scan the literature for these models in case you have a place to use a free standing stove. I can tell you that the new models are more efficient than mine!
I urge you to call each and every one of the following manufacturers. Ask for them to send you all of their direct vent literature. Sure it will be some work, but it will also yield great results. You might also be able to judge the responsiveness of the companies. Try to call everyone on the same day. This will test your patience! Then keep a log of when you receive the requested literature. The companies that get back the fastest very likely are the most efficient. They might treat future problems with the same or possibly quicker speed. I think you will be fascinated with the different response times to your requests! Be careful of the literature you receive. It WILL be intoxicating! My guess is that you will jump in your car to find the closest dealer. Drive slowly!
