Breakthrough Technology<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What sets The Summit<\/a> apart is its patented log technology, a revolutionary innovation where the flames don\u2019t just surround the logs; they live within them. This technology creates the most realistic gas fireplace experience ever seen before, where the logs look like they\u2019re truly on fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Ever Modular Fireplace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Summit offers three different shapes: Front-Facing, Right\/Left Corner, or 3-Sides Open (bay). This means you\u2019re no longer designing around a fireplace; you\u2019re designing with <\/em>it. The ease of The Summit as a multi-sided fireplace gives designers creative freedom and transforms the way a statement wall can shape a room:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Corner Configuration: <\/strong>Subtly define open-concept layouts without adding walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three-Sided Bay:<\/strong> Anchor a room\u2019s flow and make the fireplace a centerpiece visible from every angle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While unique fireplace shapes were once custom and expensive, they\u2019re now easy and affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
