The next fireplace was installed by Ken Kenoyer. He constructed his own pan for his
Direct Vent Fireplace conversion with our supervision. We will go through the steps to complete his installation. The glass that was used was
Starfire Base Glass and topped with
Red Topping and
Red Topper. We will explain as we move forward.

Pour the glass and your done! If anyone has told you that you can't convert a direct vent fireplace then these pictures and project don't exist! Just because they don't know what or how to do it, doesn't mean it can't be done.

The glass face is back on and it looks much better. A very nice and simple Self Installation!
