Convector Fires with Powered Flue

For properties with no chimney

Even if you don't have a chimney there is still an excellent chance that you can install a Convector Fire in your home - and, thanks to Gazco's leading edge technology, you may even have a choice of two options.

The NEW INTEGRAL POWERED FLUE
16" VFC Convector

New from Gazco - a gas fire which has been specifically developed for newer cavity walled properties with no chimney. It makes enjoying all the realism and comfort of a living flame fire easier than ever before.

The first of the fire's secrets is that it has
been designed to use the gap in the cavity wall (including a special system to help retain the damp-proofing properties of the cavity) thus saving space in your room.

The second is that it has been created as a complete, all-in-one 16" VFC Powered
Flue Convector Fire with totally integrated electronics and safety features. So there's no
need for a chimney and no need for a false chimney breast. In fact, all you need is a room
with an outside cavity wall and to be able to position the fire so that the flue can go
straight through.
