Heat & Glo True-TG 42 Inch Natural Gas Fireplace With Stratford Refractory – Black (TRUE-42S-IFT)

The Heat & Glo TRUE 42 is a large-format direct-vent gas fireplace designed to combine traditional masonry-inspired styling with modern fireplace technology. This configuration features Stratford brick refractory, creating a classic brick-firebox appearance that complements traditional, transitional, and contemporary residential interiors. Eight premium cast logs, LED-illuminated embers, and integrated accent lighting create a detailed fireside presentation, while the expansive viewing glass provides a clear view of the flames. The flush-hearth design supports a built-in architectural appearance and makes the fireplace a striking focal point in spacious living rooms and family rooms.

Designed for Natural Gas, the TRUE-42S-IFT delivers a heat input range of 30,500–55,500 BTU per hour. Its IntelliFire Touch ignition system and included RC400 touchscreen remote provide convenient operating control. Virtually invisible anti-reflective ceramic glass reduces glare to help maintain a clear view of the flames and log arrangement. The appliance also includes a gas flex connector, junction box, and LED accent lighting. Optional Heat-Zone and Heat-Out accessories can provide additional heat-management flexibility when installed with compatible components.

The TRUE-42S-IFT is the Stratford refractory version of the TRUE 42 series. A compatible decorative front is required to complete installation and must be purchased separately. Front options include black Firescreen, Arched Firescreen, hand-crafted Forge, and Arched Forge designs. An arch kit is required for applicable arched-front installations. Professional installation must follow the manufacturer’s framing, hearth-extension, venting, clearance, and gas-connection requirements.
