The Ortal Tunnel Collection features see-through gas fireplaces integrated into a wall or column to elegantly separate two zones without losing the view of the fire. The flame is visible from the front and back, creating a spectacular focal point for open-concept spaces, hotels, restaurants, or high-end residences. Models cover standard widths (110–250) and vertical formats (40H70, 60×80, 75×65) to adapt design and heat to your project.
• Passive Cool Wall Technology: allows for a television or artwork to be placed above the fireplace (wall thermal management).
• Choice of Heat Barriers: double glazing for a sleek look or micro-mesh screen depending on use and style.
• Coaxial Direct Venting: 5×8″ on most standard widths; 4×6″ on certain vertical models (e.g., 60×80, 75×65).
• Pro Options: Power Vent, smart control (Wi-Fi/app), internal lighting, decorative media, and optional Wilderness burner (flame through the logs).
Depending on the model, power varies from approximately 29,100 BTU/h (TN 75×65) to 43,715 BTU/h (TN 150/150H/150HH/170), with typical AFUE ratings between ~77–82%. Vertical models like the 60×80 (21 ¾″ × 29 ⅛″) use a 4×6 vent and feature 34,775 BTU/h and 81.7% AFUE (NG). The 150 formats are available in three glass heights: 13 ¾″, 21 ⅝″, and 29 ½″ to control visual impact and heat.
Direct vent gas fireplace (sealed coaxial). Must comply with CSA B149.1 standard and municipal requirements. Clearances, framing, and hearth heights vary by model: refer to the installation manuals and framing plans provided by Ortal for the chosen model. The Cool Wall option and heat barriers help protect wall finishes and equipment. Installation by a certified gas technician is highly recommended.
Easy-to-maintain double glass or screen, front-access components, and diagnostics via remote/wall control. Media (logs, stones, glass) are replaceable to refresh the decor over the years. See manufacturer documents for the warranty specific to each model.

Oui, lorsque l’installation respecte le manuel et la gestion de chaleur Cool Touch Wall, qui permet de réduire la chaleur en façade pour abaisser le téléviseur plus près du foyer. Les schémas de montage TV et exigences de rejets/chaleur sont détaillés par Flare; toujours suivre le manuel d’installation et la configuration de heat-release recommandée.
Le ST-45 est un foyer à évent direct (système coaxial scellé). La fiche technique liste un raccord 4×6 en configuration naturelle, et 3×5 avec power vent. Le manuel couvre les parcours, terminaisons horizontales/verticales et les dégagements au conduit. Un installateur qualifié doit valider le tracé sur place.
La puissance d’entrée maximale est de 36 000 BTU/h en gaz naturel (GN) et 28 000 BTU/h en propane (PL). Le fabricant annonce une efficacité jusqu’à 82 % (GN) / 83 % (PL). Les performances réelles varient selon la configuration, le réglage et la qualité d’évacuation.
Flare indique une certification CSA pour l’installation en Amérique du Nord. La garantie prévoit 18 mois sur l’électronique, 5 ans sur les vitrages (bris thermique) et 10 ans limités sur la boîte foyère et les brûleurs. Au Québec, l’installation du gaz doit respecter le Code CSA B149.1 et le manuel du fabricant.
