Kingsman IDV26 26" Direct Vent Gas Fireplace Insert
KingsmanIDV26 Overview
The Kingsman IDV26 is a 26" direct vent gas insert built to retrofit medium-size wood-burning fireplaces. The IDV26 ships with a dual burner, glowing embers, ceramic heat-radiating glass, on/off rocker switch, and heat-activated variable-speed blower as standard. The slim Black Clean View finishing kit (I26CV1BL) and MQLOGF26 7-piece fiber split oak log set are included in the listed price.
At 30,000 BTU on natural gas, the IDV26 hits the highest efficiency rating in the IDV family at up to 68% on propane. Minimum existing fireplace opening is 28" / 33" W x 19 1/2" H x 14 1/4" D (depending on CV), with the lower minimum width applying when components are removed. Three ignition tiers are available: SIT millivolt, Proflame 1 IPI, and Proflame 2 IPI which includes built-in remote thermostat, modulation, and fan control. Three primary Clean View finish options (Slim default, Slim Picture Frame, and Wide for 28" minimum openings) accommodate a range of original fireplace dimensions; additional variants like the Slim 3 1/2" depth and Wide Picture Frame are available by special order.
