A frameless linear Flare fireplace installed in a modern interior made possible by flexible power venting

Features/Power Vent System

Install almost anywhere.

The Flare Power Vent System is an optional feature for all of our fireplaces. It removes the need for a vertical rise off the top of the firebox — so your fireplace can go where the architecture wants it, not where the flue allows.

Why power vent

Designed for extremely long venting runs, the system lets your fireplace draft up to 100 feet — through walls, up roofs, around corners.

Standard natural venting typically requires a vertical rise directly above the firebox, which can limit where the fireplace is installed. A power vent uses fan-assisted draft to allow more flexible vent routing, including longer vent runs, up to eight elbows, and nontraditional vent paths. This gives architects, designers, and builders greater freedom to place the fireplace where the design calls for it. With three power vent styles available, Flare offers a solution for a wide range of applications.

The 3×5 advantage

A 5″ pipe that runs a 100′ fireplace.

Flare power vents draft through a 3×5 concentric venting system — just a 5″ outer diameter carrying both intake and exhaust in a single pipe. It’s a fraction of the size of conventional venting, yet drives runs up to 100 feet on fireplaces as long as 100″.

Smaller venting means smaller chases, more freedom in framing, and less structure lost to mechanicals — the fire integrates, and the walls stay thin.
