I called _ Napoleon, the restrictor disk is in the fripeplace, and can be used if needed. Well i have another problem, i will post as a new thread.

We have a blower on our DV gas insert, not a Lennox, but we haven't used it yet. At slow speed, it's not too noisy, but I would not want to use it at high speed. A word about using a ceiling fan. Some fans are equipped with a switch that reverses the direction of the turning. In that case, instead of blowing DOWN to cool you in warm weather, it blows UP, so that you don't feel an objectionable breeze in winter, but the warm air is more even distributed throughout the space. As an alternative to a reversible motor, some fans are designed so that the blades can be repositioned (You twist them) so that they achieve the same effect as a motor reversal. Although we haven't used our blower here in North Carolina, I think we probably will try it next winter because these DV unit put out a lot of heat, and you don't want it concentrated in just one area -- you want to distribute it. I would also strongly recommend a hand held remote control thermostat. Once you figure out how best to use it -- where in the room it's best to put it, and what temp setting is best -- you will get a more even, comfortable temperature in your space. Otherwise, you'll be turning it off periodically because they put out heat like a blast furnace, and they can get really hot.

Hi there. Did you end up choosing one of these fireplaces? It seems I have been looking at all of the models you mentioned, and our fireplace width will be 6'10" wide, so we are in a similar situation. Let me know how it worked out for you, Thank you.

Have you decided what to do? I'm debating the same thing and would be interested in what you ended up with. But we have 10 ft ceilings, which I think is leaning me towards the 36", even though I'd prefer the 33.
