HearthStone Waitsfield Direct Vent Gas Stove
Some people want the look of a traditional stove and a fire they can see from more than one side. The HearthStone Waitsfield gives you both, with glass on three sides and a choice of Matte Black, Brown Enamel, or Basil Enamel. It lights with the push of a button, and it's a direct vent gas stove that runs on natural gas or propane, with the LP conversion kit included.
This is model 8771. It uses the SIT 821 ignition system with a 7-day timeout and a steel pan burner, and HearthStone rates its natural gas input from 17,500 to 32,500 BTU/hr. The blower and remote are optional, so you can start simple and add them if you'd like more air movement or easier control.
What Makes the Waitsfield Different
- Fire on three sides. The three-sided glass lets the flames show from the sides as well as the front.
- Push-button lighting. Starting a fire is as easy as pressing a button, with no matches or kindling.
- 7-day timeout. The SIT 821 system includes a 7-day timeout, which helps keep gas from being used when the stove sits unused.
- Options when you want them. Add the optional blower or remote now or later to fit the way you use the stove.

Ownership & Maintenance
