Overview

A combined top and rear flue lets this DRT3000 series fireplace vent through a wall or the roof. Tempered glass with a protective screen fronts a detailed ceramic fiber log set, and a textured powder coat finishes the box.

The reason to consider it is the flexible venting and the choice of ignition models, which help in a remodel or a new build. The limitation is the missing heat output, fuel and dimension figures, so confirm the exact model before planning the opening.

Who it's for

Builders and homeowners planning a traditional hearth who want to vent through the top or rear and may add a blower or remote. Anyone who wants a heat rating, a linear shape or a complete spec sheet should check the maker's documents.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Top or rear venting

  • Detailed ceramic log set
  • Optional blower and remote
Cons
  • Heat output not listed
  • Fuel type not stated
  • Blower and remote sold optional

Performance notes

A direct-vent unit draws combustion air from outside and exhausts outside through the flue, so the room air is not used. The glass front and a blower, if added, push heat into the room, and the ignition style depends on the model you choose.

Frequently asked questions

What size is the Superior DRT3045DMP-E fireplace?

The title says 45 inch, and the description says a mid-size 17 inch depth. The size field reads 4.5x7.5, which the listing does not explain, so check the maker's framing sheet.

Can the Superior DRT3045DMP-E vent through the roof?

Yes. The description names a combination top and rear flue configuration.

Does the DRT3045 fireplace include a blower or remote?

They are listed as optional for all models, so they are not part of the base unit.

Is this a linear fireplace?

No. It is a traditional style unit with a log set, not a wide linear burner.
