Frequently asked questions

Common questions about EMPIRE from 3G Electric.

What types of gas heaters does EMPIRE manufacture?

EMPIRE manufactures freestanding vented gas floor heaters, gas wall furnaces, and gas ceiling heaters. The floor heaters are available in natural gas and propane models, with solid-face or visual-flame cabinets. Wall and ceiling heaters are designed for surface mounting and require venting. EMPIRE also produces vent kits and thermostats specifically for these heaters.

Are EMPIRE gas heaters suitable for use in commercial spaces?

EMPIRE gas heaters are primarily designed for residential and light-commercial applications. They are commonly used in garages, workshops, warehouses, and similar spaces where a vented gas heat source is needed. The heaters are not typically rated for heavy industrial environments but can be specified for conditioned spaces with adequate ventilation.

What venting options are available for EMPIRE gas heaters?

EMPIRE offers vent kits such as the Siding Vent Kit (MPN SOR1), which is a steel surface-mount vent for wall furnaces. The vent kit has opening dimensions of 2 in x 3-1/4 in. Freestanding floor heaters have vent diameters of 3-1/2 in, 4 in, or 5 in, depending on the model. All EMPIRE heaters are vented and require proper exhaust routing per local codes.

Does EMPIRE manufacture thermostats for their gas heaters?

Yes, EMPIRE produces thermostats specifically for their gas wall and ceiling heaters, such as the GWRBT model. These thermostats are designed to be compatible with EMPIRE heaters and are typically unit-mounted on the heater cabinet. They are not universal and should be matched to the specific heater model for proper operation.

What fuel types are available for EMPIRE freestanding floor heaters?

EMPIRE freestanding vented gas floor heaters are available in both natural gas and propane (LP) models. The fuel type is specified in the model number (e.g., RH65CNAT for natural gas, RH65BLP for propane). Each heater is factory-set for the designated fuel and should not be converted without a manufacturer-approved conversion kit.

What are the typical dimensions of EMPIRE gas floor heaters?

EMPIRE gas floor heaters vary in size by model. For example, the RH65 series measures approximately 29-5/8 in high by 34 in wide by 27-11/16 in deep, while the DV20 series is 26 in high by 37 in wide by 15-3/4 in deep. The RH25LP is 26 in high by 37 in wide by 18-3/8 in deep. Always verify dimensions against the installation space.
