Monessen Lyric: a gas burner with flames over glass instead of logs

The Monessen Lyric is a vent free gas burner for the fireplace you already have. It comes 18, 24, or 30 inches wide. Pick the size on the page. It needs only 11 inches of firebox depth. Flames rise through shining glass instead of logs for a modern look. It puts out up to 37,000 BTU to help warm your room.

Order it for natural gas or propane. 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 heaters. It is millivolt with auto spark ignition: push the button and it lights, with no electricity, so it works when the power is out. The price covers the burner and the onyx glass. On the page you pick the size, the fuel, and the glass color. You can add a hand held on and off remote or a touchscreen remote. Prefer the look of logs? See the Monessen Mezmer gas log set. The Monessen Lyric ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ

Can you have a gas fireplace with just fire glass and no logs?

Yes – that is exactly what the Lyric is built for. This vent-free set skips logs entirely: flames erupt through a bed of shimmering fireglass for a clean, contemporary fire. Among gas fireplace burners, it is one meant to be looked at rather than hidden beneath a log stack, which changes the whole character of the hearth.

What gives the Lyric its contemporary character?

It is all shimmer and movement – flames that flicker over shining glass instead of a traditional log stack. Monessen designed it to add romance and richness to a room while staying in harmony with modern decor, and it looks great whether it is on or off, so the fireplace reads as a design feature even between fires.

Is Onyx the only fireglass color offered?

No – Onyx is simply what comes standard. The burner is offered with four fireglass media colors in total, so you can keep the deep black bed or set a different tone under the flames. Since the glass is the entire stage for this fire, the media color changes its personality more than any other option you will pick.

What does millivolt control mean on this burner?

Millivolt is a self-powered gas control system – it does not rely on your home’s electrical supply at all. That is the Lyric’s quiet advantage: when a raging winter storm knocks the power out, the fire keeps right on working. There is nothing to plug in, so the burner’s operation never hinges on an outlet or a breaker panel.

Can a burner set really heat 1,850 square feet?

The 24 and 30-inch models are rated for exactly that: up to 1,850 square feet of heating capacity from 37,000 BTU on natural gas, 36,000 on propane. The 18-inch model covers up to 1,400 square feet at 28,000 BTU. Vent-free operation is what makes those figures realistic – none of the warmth is lost to a venting system.

Will it fit under a low, modern fireplace opening?

Very likely. The 18-inch burner needs an opening of only 12 inches of height, 25 inches of front width, and 11 inches of depth – unusually low requirements. The 24 and 30-inch models ask for 13 inches of height with 30 or 34 inches of width. Long, low openings are exactly where a bed of fireglass looks most at home.

What is auto-spark ignition?

It is how this burner lights: a built-in spark ignites the flame for you, no matches and no fuss – Monessen calls the operation effortless. Auto-spark works hand in hand with the simple millivolt control, and because the set is remote ready you can add a remote and start the fire without leaving your chair.
