Empire B-Vent Counterflow Wall Furnace 24V System 55000 BTU Electronic Pilot FAW55IPX Review

Are you looking for a total heating comfort for a fraction of the cost of electric heat? Counterflow wall furnaces circulate warmth at floor level to provide comfort at a fraction of the cost of electric heat.  The front panels remove easily for cleaning and servicing. Available in standing pilot with matchless piezo ignition or state-of-the-art electronic ignition.

Vented zone heating systems use room air to support combustion and exhaust their flue products to the outdoors via a single pipe.
Mounts anywhere you have access to an existing flue or where you can install a vent run through the roof. A vented zone heating system makes an excellent replacement for an inefficient oil or wood stove.

Vented zone heating systems may be installed as the primary heating system.
