Description
The Majestic Ruby Platinum is the Ruby insert with a taller glass opening, a premium interior and IntelliFire Touch, in 30 and 35 inch, with a birch log set as an option. It comes in 2 sizes, Ruby Insert 30" and Ruby Insert 35".
Who it's for
Right buyer. You want the Ruby insert with a taller glass opening and a premium interior, in 30 or 35 inch, and a birch log set as an option.
Wrong buyer. The standard Ruby fits the opening and the budget; the difference is glass height and finish, not heat.
How it performs
The Ruby Platinum is the Ruby with a taller glass opening and a premium interior; everything about the install is the same, and the fire is bigger in the frame.
Good to know
- Same opening minimums as the Ruby; the difference is glass height and finish.
- The 35-inch is not in the current price list; confirm before ordering.

Installation
| Venting | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Type | Direct vent, co-linear |
| Min vertical | 10 ft |
| Max vertical | 50 ft |
| Termination | vertical only |
| Liner | Two 3 in. flexible liners: LINK-DV30B or LINKSQ-DV30 (two 30 ft liners and cap), or LINK-DV4‑30B (30 ft exhaust, 4 ft intake) |
The insert slides into an existing masonry or factory-built wood fireplace and vents through two flexible liners run up the old chimney to a cap on top. The chimney is inspected first, and the liner kit is sized to its height and sold separately.
Planning the install
- Installation is by a licensed gas installer. The fireplace, its venting and the gas line are inspected together, and the warranty depends on it.
- Framing, clearances to combustibles, mantel heights and the vent run come from the installation manual for your size. Send us your plan and we will check it before anything ships.
- Venting is sold separately and priced from the installer's plan: the pipe, elbows and termination depend on where the vent exits. Ask us for a vent quote with your order.
- Propane: every model is also made in an LP version at the same price. Add a note to your order and we will confirm the LP model before it ships.
- A 120-volt outlet or junction box at the fireplace is needed for the fan, lights and accessories; the ignition itself has battery backup.
- Special-order goods ship by freight. Confirm the size and the front before you order.
Questions
Will it fit my fireplace?
Send us the width, height and depth of your firebox opening, front and back, and the height of the chimney. Each insert size has a minimum opening in the installation manual, and the surround covers the rest. We check every insert order against it before it ships.
What is a front, and why is it required?
A Majestic direct-vent fireplace ships as the firebox and glass. The front is the finished face that covers the frame and the vents: a clean-face trim that disappears into the wall, or a decorative front with a screen. The fireplace cannot be finished without one, which is why the page will not let you order without choosing it.
What is IntelliFire Touch?
Majestic's intermittent-pilot ignition system. There is no standing pilot burning all year; the fireplace lights when you turn it on, from the wall switch, the remote or the app. It has a battery backup, so it still lights in a power outage. Flame height, the fan and the lights are controlled from the RC400 remote or the IntelliFire app with the Wi-Fi module.
Does it heat the room?
Yes. A direct-vent fireplace is a sealed heater: it draws combustion air from outside and sends its exhaust outside, so all the heat from the glass goes into the room. With the optional fan it warms a good-sized room; the passive heat and heat-zone kits move heat to another room or out of the wall above.
How is it vented?
Through a coaxial direct-vent pipe out the top or the rear, to a termination on the roof or through an outside wall. No chimney is needed. The pipe, elbows and cap are sized to your house and sold separately.
Can I get it in propane?
Yes. Add a note to your order and we will confirm the LP model, which is the same price.
