Start with Mendota’s FV44i Full View insert and you can add one of several fronts to customize the look.  But before you do that, look deeply into the flames of one of the most handsome inserts around. No tell tale louvers to squish the view. Mendota’s FV44i is an industry leader for another reason – no standing pilot light.  Instead, the FV44i uses intermittent pilot ignition meaning the remote control that comes with the insert allows you to easily turn the pilot on and off, adjust the flame height and heat output.  2-stage ceramic burners, FireLight accent lights and firebrick lining complete the picture.  Shown here is the FV44i with theBoulevard Doors, available in Vintage Iron with Black or Burled Cherry insets.  This isn’t just luxury – it’s luxury where you live.
