FAQ

What does ‘linear’ mean on the Ascent Linear Premium 56?

Linear fireplaces are wide and low: the BLX56 frames a 51.50 x 16.75 in ribbon of flame stretching over four feet, a contemporary architectural look compared with the taller, squarer window of traditional models.

Can the Ascent Linear Premium 56 be installed without a chimney?

Yes — that is the point of direct venting. One sealed pipe run through an exterior wall or the roof replaces the chimney entirely, letting this 56-inch linear anchor a wall that never had a fireplace.

What does the Ascent Linear Premium 56 cost to run?

Roughly 0.28 therms of natural gas per hour at its full 28,000 BTU input — around 40–45 cents hourly at typical U.S. gas prices, decreasing as you turn the flame down.

What are the framing dimensions for the Ascent Linear Premium 56?

Minimum framing is 56.50 in wide x 39.38 in high x 18.56 in deep; the fireplace measures 56 x 38.81 x 18.31 in. The relatively shallow depth keeps the wall bump-out modest for a fireplace this wide.

Can a TV be mounted above the Ascent Linear Premium 56?

Often yes, provided the clearances and heat-management guidance in the installation manual are followed — the internal blower helps move heat into the room instead of up the wall. Your installer should verify wall surface temperatures before mounting electronics.

Is the Ascent Linear Premium 56 restricted to exterior walls?

No. Vertical venting through the roof means an interior feature wall works too — the vent route, not the wall’s location, is what your installer needs to plan.

How is the Ascent Linear Premium 56 covered under warranty?

It carries Napoleon’s President’s Limited Lifetime Warranty. Buying the BLX56 through us — an authorized Napoleon dealer — keeps every part of that factory coverage valid.
