Unique Gas Fires for Bathroom Corner Fireplace - Project #11197
Customer Comments: I have attached a couple of pictures of my fireplace. Originally built in the 1950's. I was told the set in it is a ventless set. I am not sure how to confirm that. I did look at the sticker underneath the set and it says it is a 60,000 btu outdoor propane set. Needless to say, the flue lever fell and broke most of the logs. I cannot find a solution for this fireplace that looks decent so I actually bought mortar cement to put the logs back together, but I never fired it back up because that little voice was telling me not to. Are you aware of any good solutions for this fireplace? I wouldn't mind having a ventless and keeping the flue open, even though it doesn't make sense. I just want the safest option. The best research I could find shows that the company either went out of business or was sold to another company in Minnesota more than 10 years ago. This is in a bathroom in the master suite of a larger bedroom. Thank you

Mesh & Insulation Options
The Mesh options are behind the glass so you can burn the fire with the doors open and still have spark protection. Great for real wood or gas logs since most gas long manufacturers insist that you have a screen in front of the logs when they are burning. Mesh panel doors are the most popular and are best for when there are toddlers present because they will not open backwards whereas the mesh screens are easily pushed in. Insulation goes between the back of the frame and the fireplace facing, providing a better seal.
Black Mesh Curtains - These slide back and forth on a rod behind the glass
Gate Mesh Doors - These are separate doors behind the glass that have a flat wire mesh and a black frame.
Insulation: Provides a better seal between the fireplace face and the door frame.
