Monessen Attribute: an angled firebox that moves more heat into the room
The Monessen Attribute is a vent free firebox for an indoor wall, sold without a burner. It comes 32, 36, or 42 inches wide. Pick the size on the page. The opening is 27 inches tall. Brick patterned panels or reflective black glass line the inside. The screens slide into pockets at the sides.
A firebox is the steel box your builder frames into the wall and finishes in stone, tile, or brick. You add a Monessen vent free log set or glass burner, and the logs set the heat. The price is for the firebox. Vent free means it needs no chimney or vent pipe at all, and nearly all the heat stays in the room. Check your local code first, since some areas restrict vent free fireplaces. On the page you pick the size and the interior panels. You can add a Monessen log set or Lyric glass burner kit, each with a touchscreen remote. A fan and a wood mantel or mantel shelf are also optional. Want another firebox option? See the Monessen Exacta firebox. The Monessen Attribute ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What is a vent-free firebox, and what turns the Attribute into a fireplace?
A firebox is the enclosure that a finished fireplace is built around; it carries no burner and no BTU rating of its own. With the Attribute, you frame the box in, choose interior panels, and add the Monessen vent-free log set you love. Because the design is vent-free, it installs like other indoor fireplaces that skip chimney construction altogether.
How much room does the deep box give a log set?
Generous room, by design. Every size shares a 20-inch unit depth, and the deep box pairs with a wide opening so the log set of your choice sits comfortably instead of feeling squeezed. Fuller log arrangements that would fight a shallow enclosure have room to breathe here, which lets the flames and the interior panels show properly.
How much viewing area do the three Attribute sizes give?
The Attribute 32 shows a 32 by 27 inch fire, 864 square inches of it. The 36 steps up to 36 by 27 inches, 972 square inches, and the 42 tops out at 42 by 27 inches, 1,134 square inches. All three share the same 34-inch unit height, so a wider model buys more fire view without a taller footprint.
How does the angled design push more heat into the room?
The box is angled rather than square, and uniquely engineered air channels carry warmth out toward the room instead of letting it linger inside the enclosure. That geometry is built into the firebox itself, so once your log set is burning, more of its heat reaches the people in front of it and efficiency is maximized without extra equipment.
How do the reversible interior panels work?
Each panel is finished on both faces: pick trendy gray or classic brown, then decide which side shows, a traditional brick pattern on one face and herringbone on the other. Flipping the panels changes the whole character of the fire without buying anything new. If neither suits your room, reflective black glass panels deliver a modern, subtly sophisticated alternative.
Are operable doors available on any of the sizes?
Optional mesh operable doors are offered for the 36 and 42 inch models; the 32 does not take them. Every size, though, comes with screens that tuck away into hidden pockets, so you can draw them across the opening or slide them fully out of sight. Between doors, screens, and panels, the firebox dresses up or down to suit the room.
Can tile run right up to the Attribute's opening?
Yes. The face is clean and louverless, with no vents or grilles interrupting the front, so tile, stone, or the material of your choice can finish right up to the firebox. That is exactly how Monessen intends it to be treated: the surround runs clean to the fire, and the log set inside carries the show.

What Our Customers Say
D
A sauna turns your garden into a spa oasis. We debated it for a while, but after renovating our house, we pulled the trigger and bought a sauna from Norse Steam and Maya. She was always super responsive and helpful throughout the process. Don't kid yourself, getting a really nice sauna is not that easy. Sizing and heating need to be figured out, as does the building, but we have always had a helpful partner on our side. She never upsold us on anything we didn't need, and we got some nice freebies when the sauna was delivered. And now we can really enjoy every moment in our garden.
KF
I'm really happy with my sauna purchase. Maya gave above and beyond excellent customer service. She wasn't pushy and gave impressive followup after the delivery to make sure everything was just right.
DE
I enjoy my FD2 Sauna with Red Light, Infrared and radiant heat. Use it 5x a week and my post workout soreness is minimal and sleep great. Maya at Norse Steam was excellent to work with.
B
We purchased the 3-person sauna for our outdoor garden. We chose the cube sauna for the aesthetic and could not be happier.
I assembled by myself except for the 2 large panels (requires a few people). Instructions were good - took me two partial Saturdays to complete and a few hours to unpack and organize in advance of assembly. Had my elec. add a NEMA enclosure on the back for the controller and power for lights and a 2nd panel for the wireless control.
Customer service was excellent

Awesome Sauna and Awesome Company and Experience purchasing it from Maya!
After much research I chose the Finnmark FD-2 and it has met and exceeded all my expectations! Easy to assemble and it functions great - just as advertised. I highly recommend it for home use!
EA
Recently purchased the Finnmark one person after much research. Extremely happy with it and the ordering process. Maya was very responsive and helpful during the process and keeping us updated while we waited for shipment. There were several places I could have ordered this, but i chose Norse Steam based on the communication and customer service which was fantastic. The shipment was also excellent. The setup was pretty seamless for two people - but the best part is the sauna experience 10/10

Maya is amazing - super helpful and responsive. Looked at many stores, these guys have the best prices and service. Highly recommend
GR
Norse Steam, and specifically Maya, were extremely helpful as I was making the decision for our Sauna. I was able to get all of the necessary details to make a decision as construction was happening in my backyard to make space for it.
We absolutely love the CL7G. It is extremely comfortable for 6 people (can fit more less comfortably). The Thermory Spruce and Aspen in the interior smells great. The lighting is lovely. We paired the CL7G with the Harvia Spirit 10.5kw.

Had great experience shopping at Norse Steam for the new heater. They had very good deal, with rocks. Customer service was good, and responded very fast with my questions. Received the heater, and it looks good, and the quality seem to be great. Will install soon, and am very excited to start experiencing sauna the way it ment to be

Smoking Hot Tub!
I got the Norse Steam SaunaLife wood-fired hot tub, the S4N model, and its been seriously great. It heats up quicker than I expected, usually around an hour and a half, and once its hot, it stays that way for a good long while. The wood-fired system is simple to use, and honestly kind of fun.
The tub itself feels solid and well put together. The thermo-spruce exterior looks beautiful in person, and the fiberglass interior is smooth, deep, and easy to clean. Its the kind of setup that just works without a bunch of fuss, which I really appreciate.
Also, the team at Norse Steam was genuinely great to work with. Super helpful, quick to respond, and made the process really easy from start to finish. It felt like they actually cared that I was happy with it. The tub has totally become a go-to way to unwind, and I wouldnt change a thing.

Great Sauna & Purchase Experience
Great experience purchasing Finnmark FD-2 from Norse Steam. Good communication and easy to assemble. Temperature increases quickly (30 minutes or less to 140) and maintains well. So far this has been a great purchase.
M
Great sauna and great customer service
We purchased the Finnmark SD-1 sauna. Maya was extremely helpful with the purchase. We had an issue with the sauna not reaching the maximum temperature, and Maya connected us with the appropriate technician that explained how to correct the issue. The sauna now heats to the maximum temperature (170 degrees) in less than an hour, and it is a great unit. We are very happy with it, and we would definitely purchase from NorseSteam if we needed any other items.

Sauna Review
I recently purchased a sauna from Norse Steam, and I couldn't be more impressed with the entire experience. From start to finish, their customer service was exceptional, and Maya deserves special recognition for her outstanding support!
Maya was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, answering all my questions about the sauna features, installation process, and maintenance. She went above and beyond to ensure I selected the perfect model for my home. Even after the purchase, Maya followed up to make sure everything was running smoothly and that I was satisfied with my sauna.
The sauna itself is top-notch beautifully designed, durable, and easy to use. It's clear that Norse Steam takes pride in the quality of their products and their commitment to customer satisfaction.
If you're considering a sauna, I wholeheartedly recommend Norse Steam. With their excellent customer service and high-quality products, you're in great hands. Thank you, Maya, and the entire Norse Steam team for a fantastic experience!
