Town & Country's "clean- face" realistic looking gas fireplaces were launched in 2003, and immediately revolu- tionized the industry, disproving the long-held belief that a gas fireplace could ever mimic a real wood fire. It eliminated the mechanical facings and louvers In this era of mass-production, Town & Country Fireplaces remains a hand-crafted product with premium materials and crafts- manship. While some manufacturers use spot-welding or screwed metal seams, or fabricate their products using lighter materi- als which may "tick" and "bang "as they warm up or cool down - Town & Country Luxury Fireplaces, by comparison, are hard-crafted with heavy 12-guage steel, offering superior heat dispersion. A Town & Country firebox is continuously full-seam welded, and is up to 58% heavier than other clean-face fireplaces. The result is quieter operation and safer, gas- tight joints for more durable performance.

Since its inception, the company has been a leader in the hearth industry. Experience, coupled with a state-of-the-art that obscured the hearth, and added huge, life-like flames that successfully emulate the look of a wood-burning fire.
