Monessen Lanai: a wide outdoor gas fire with no chimney
The Monessen Lanai is an outdoor linear gas fireplace built into a patio wall. Linear means the opening is low and wide, like a letterbox. It comes 48, 60, or 72 inches wide. Pick the size on the page. The opening is 17 inches tall. It needs only about 13 inches of wall depth. Your contractor frames a structure around it on the patio and finishes it in stone, stucco, or brick. A ribbon of flame burns over colored crushed glass. LED lights glow underneath, and stainless steel inside reflects the flames.
Order it for natural gas or propane. It needs no vent or chimney, so it can go in a garden wall, a patio wall, or an outdoor kitchen. IntelliFire ignition lights it with a button, so no pilot burns while the fire is off. It puts out from 55,000 to 65,000 BTU, real warmth for a patio. On the page you pick the size, the fuel, and the glass color. You can add a stainless steel screen, a clean face trim kit (a black frame that goes around the opening), a stone kit, or driftwood logs. Want fire on both sides? See the Monessen Lanai See-Through gas fireplace. The Monessen Lanai ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
How does the stainless interior change the way the fire looks?
It behaves like a reflector. The interior is stainless steel, positioned to reflect and magnify the flames, so the fire rising through the colorful crushed-glass bed reads deeper and brighter than the burner alone could manage. After dark the effect is striking: metal, glass, and flame working together, which is exactly the contemporary vibe this linear design is after.
How many colors can the Lanai's LED lighting show?
Eight, each with three intensity levels. Fix the lighting on one color that suits the evening or let it cycle through the whole palette, and use the intensity setting to tune how strongly the glow reads through the crushed glass. It is enough range to restyle the fireplace night to night without touching anything but a setting.
What does the weatherproof wall control handle?
The fire and the lighting both. One wall control runs the fireplace and changes the LED colors, and because it is weatherproof, it stays outside with the unit instead of pushing those functions to an indoor switch. Starting the flames, adjusting the evening’s color, all of it happens right from the patio, in whatever weather the season brings.
What does the glass wind guard actually do?
It keeps the flame pattern steady and strong. Outdoor flames naturally lean and gutter with every gust, and a long linear ribbon of fire shows that disturbance more than most. The glass guard shelters the burner line so the display stays composed on breezy evenings, which are precisely the evenings an outdoor fireplace gets used the most.
Which accessories protect it from debris and moisture?
Two optional ones. A screen adds a layer of safety and keeps debris from finding its way into the fireplace, useful under trees or in leafy seasons. A drain pan moves moisture away from the unit, helping ensure an even longer service life outdoors. Neither is required, but both are sensible insurance for a fireplace that lives outside.
Can you add logs to a fireplace with a crushed-glass bed?
Here you can. Optional ceramic stone or driftwood logs are offered for a touch of customization over the standard crushed-glass firebed. Driftwood logs ease the contemporary linear flame toward a natural, coastal character, while ceramic stone keeps things sculptural. It is a simple way to shift the personality of the fire without changing the fireplace itself.
How easily does it fold into an existing patio design?
Very easily, because no chimney or venting is needed; the fireplace blends anywhere into your space, in 48 or 60 inch widths. Existing fuel matters less than you might expect, too, since an LP conversion kit is listed among its accessories. That siting freedom is a signature strength of modern outdoor gas fireplaces, and this one uses it well.
