About this model
Overview
The Rosedale 3 is a direct vent gas fireplace insert: a sealed appliance that slides into an existing fireplace and vents through a lined route to the outside, so room air stays separate from the fire.
It uses electronic ignition and is listed for natural gas, with propane available by special order. The one ordering choice on the insert itself is a decorative accent — wrought iron globes or none — while the visible face is completed with the faceplate and backer arrangement chosen for the opening. As with every insert, the liner and vent components are specified alongside the appliance.
Is this right for your home?
An existing fireplace where a sealed, controllable gas fire is wanted in place of an open hearth.
Check before ordering
- The height, width and depth of the existing fireplace opening.
- Whether the property is on natural gas, since propane is a special order for this model.
- The chimney, because a direct vent insert is installed with a lined route to the outside.
Worth knowing
- The decorative accent is an option rather than part of the base appliance.
- Vent and liner components are configuration-specific and are specified with the insert.

Installation
The existing opening and the chimney decide this installation. The insert is fitted into the fireplace and connected to a lined direct vent route, with the face finished by the faceplate and backer arrangement chosen for the opening.
Brown Chimney can measure the opening, inspect the chimney and confirm what the installation would involve before anything is ordered.
Service availability depends on your location.
