Monessen Twilight: one gas fire for the living room and patio
The Monessen Twilight is a see through direct vent gas fireplace set in an outside wall. See through means one side faces the living room and the other faces the patio. It comes 36 inches wide, with a window about 36 by 21 inches on each side. The included logs and glowing embers give it a wood fire look. The vent runs out the back, leaving the wall above free for a window. It puts out up to 38,000 BTU.
Order it for natural gas or propane. Direct vent means a sealed pipe runs to the outside. It brings in air for the fire and carries the exhaust out, so the fire never uses the air in your room. IntelliFire Touch ignition lights it with a button. With the Wi-Fi module you can run it from the IntelliFire app or with your voice. On the page you pick the fuel and the control. You can add a black firescreen or modern front, a fan, or a wood mantel or mantel shelf. Prefer a different look? See the Monessen Twilight Modern gas fireplace. The Monessen Twilight ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
Can you start the fireplace before you even get home?
Yes. The IntelliFire app runs this fireplace from anywhere, so lighting it from the car, the office, or the far end of the house is the same simple tap. Pull into the driveway with the fire already established and the patio already warming, a small luxury that ends up used far more often than it sounds.
Can a gas fireplace be turned on with your voice?
This one can. Alongside the IntelliFire app, the Twilight supports voice control, so you can ask for the flames without touching anything. Hands full of dinner plates on the way out to the patio, you still get the fire started, which is precisely the situation this feature turns out to be built for.
What actually connects the fireplace to a smartphone?
A Wi-Fi module ties the fireplace into your home network, and the IntelliFire app takes over from there; Monessen publishes a quick-start guide that walks through the pairing. It is worth setting up during installation week rather than someday, because once the connection is live the app tends to become the control you actually reach for.
Do the logs and embers cost extra on this model?
No. The gas log and glowing ember set comes included with the fireplace, which is not a given in this category, where media is often priced as a separate accessory line. The firebox arrives dressed and ready, so the number you budgeted at the start stays much closer to the number you finish with.
What kind of fire greets you when it lights?
A classic one. The included set stacks gas logs over glowing embers, so the flames rise through what reads as a settled wood fire rather than a bare line of burner. It is a warm, traditional presentation of gas fire, and it delivers that character from the first minute the ignition brings it to life.
Can a mantel or shelf finish the wall around it?
Yes. Monessen publishes mantel, shelf, and surround options suited to this fireplace, and the design also leaves the wall directly above the firebox workable, which is why some owners run windows over the flames to stretch the fireside view. Between a mantel below and daylight above, this wall can carry more design than fireplace walls usually get to.
Which fits a patio wall better, the Twilight or the outdoor Lanai?
Depends which side of the wall you live on. The Twilight is an indoor/outdoor see-through, made to serve a room and a patio through one wall. The Lanai See-Through stays entirely outdoors, splitting two open-air areas with a low line of flame the way linear fireplaces do best. House-plus-patio points to Twilight; patio-plus-garden points to Lanai.
