Ortal Traditional 42 (Signature Burner)
The Ortal Traditional 42 is a 42 inch direct vent gas fireplace with the taller, squarer proportions of a classic masonry opening. Ortal's Signature burner brings the flame up from a bed of glass, pebbles or logs, the clean contemporary look Ortal is known for. It runs on natural gas or propane.
It comes with a micro mesh protective screen front. Inside you choose brick, Blackridge or black reflective glass panels and a fire bed of logs, pebbles or glass. It suits a new build or remodel where you want a mantel and a hearth rather than a long linear slot.

Input and efficiency figures are Ortal's published ratings. How much warmth you feel depends on the room, the configuration, the venting and how the fireplace is set up.
Ortal fireplaces are built to order, so the configuration, heat barrier, interior and fire bed all get chosen before it ships. We measure the space, plan the vent run, confirm the clearances against the Ortal installation manual, and handle the install and the service afterward.
