A Monessen outdoor fireplace gives you a choice of gas flames or an open wood fire for your patio. Choose a style from Monessen Hearth that brings warmth to your patio. You can choose a low and wide opening, a traditional brick look, or a shared fire for two seating areas. For installation, your contractor frames a structure around the unit and finishes it in stone, stucco or brick. Start with fuel, size and venting, then check what comes with your choice.


Monessen outdoor fireplaces: gas without a vent

The linear options include a 48 or 60 inch opening with crushed glass and LED lights. The single-sided version needs about 13 inches of wall depth. Both versions need no chimney, and the see-through version serves two seating areas.

Prefer traditional gas options for the patio? Choose 36 or 42 inches with a wall control. This unit needs no vent pipe; its exhaust vents out the front. Logs are sold separately. It comes set up for natural gas, so ask us before you order if you need propane. The outdoor firebox takes a Monessen gas log set or glass burner.

One fire for the living room and patio

A 36 inch see-through fireplace sits in an outside wall of your home. These direct vent units use sealed pipe for air and exhaust, so the fire never uses the air in your room. Choose logs, crushed glass or a taller window. Compare the indoor vent free line for a linear option that needs an outdoor kit to face a patio.

Choose an open wood fire

An outdoor wood burning fireplace has no glass between you and the flames. Choose 36 or 42 inches, including a 42 inch option with the tallest opening at 38 inches. Brick look panels, a grate and mesh curtain screens come with it. Chimney pipe is sold separately. Folding glass doors are optional.
