Valor G3 V-Class Gas Insert, Natural Gas

The Valor G3 turns an existing wood-burning fireplace into a gas fire you run from a remote. Valor first introduced the G3 in 1991, and the V-Class version gives it a fresh set of looks with three V-Class log sets in birch, driftwood, or traditional logs.

This 739VN engine runs on natural gas and includes Valor's AutoFire system and a Valor Plus remote. Valor describes its radiant fireplaces as heating the room directly, without relying on a fan or electricity, and the G3 runs on battery power. It installs in a working solid-fuel fireplace and chimney and vents through two 3 inch liners. The log set, liner, front, and surround are ordered separately.

Why Homeowners Choose the G3 V-Class

• Choice of V-Class logs. Birch, driftwood, or traditional logs change the whole character of the fire.
• No household power needed. The G3 runs on battery power, so it doesn't need electricity to operate as a heater.
• AutoFire comes standard. AutoFire is included with the engine, which Valor presents as a way to save energy.
• Uses the fireplace you already have. It's built for existing solid-fuel fireplaces and chimneys, venting through two 3 inch flex liners.

This listing is the Valor 739VN engine, the V-Class G3 direct vent gas insert for natural gas. The fuel bed, liner, front, and surround are sold separately.
