Kingsman: HBZDV4224 - IPI Ignition (NG)

A big, clean view of the fire, with heat you can turn up or down.

Quick Facts

• Efficiency: 57.81% (CSA P.4.1)
• Fuel: Natural gas; propane models available.
• Controls: Electronic ignition with hi/low heat and flame adjustment; a wall-mount battery holder powers it in an outage.
• Fan: Optional heat-activated, variable-speed fan kit.

Who It’s For

A fireplace should look like a real fire and warm the room it is in. You need one that fits the wall and the way you live. The Kingsman HBZDV4224 is for the homeowner who wants a gas fire on the wall with a clean view of the flames. Choose one sized wrong and you either overheat the room or end up with a fire that looks lost.

What Makes It Special

A dual burner with a realistic flame pattern and a flame sensor that constantly monitors the pilot, behind a safety screen barrier, in the 42-inch size.

The standing-pilot or electronic-ignition valve keeps working during a power failure, with hi/low heat and flame adjustment; the electronic version runs from a wall-mount battery holder when the power is out.

This is the mid-efficiency version, rated for ambiance and taking the chill out of the room; the higher-efficiency version gives more warmth.

Possible Downsides

• The fan kit is optional. Without it, the fireplace heats by radiance.

If you want a gas fire that suits the room it is in, the Kingsman HBZDV4224 is the right decision. The room you used to pass through becomes the one everyone settles into.

Choose the designer clean view circulating kit or louvers, a herringbone or brick liner, birch or oak log sets, and the heat-activated variable-speed fan kit.
