Heat & Glo Passive Heat Kit, 6K and 8K Series | PH-MR


The Heat & Glo PH-MR is the Passive Heat kit for the 6K and 8K Series gas fireplaces, including the 6K and 8K Modern. Passive Heat is Heat & Glo's fan-free heat management option. It conveys warm air from the fireplace into the same room, lowering surface temperatures around the fireplace. Heat & Glo says this lets a TV or artwork sit as little as 12 inches above the fireplace, and a mantel is part of the plan.

What else do I need?
For side discharge, the PH-SIDETRIM register covers are required. For front discharge, the PH-FRTTRIM-36 or -42 trim is optional. Mesh is required for front or open top discharge.
Can I add a fan too?
Heat & Glo lists the kit as compatible with the GFK-160A fan, and a mantel is then required.
Can it be added later?
