FAQ

What makes the Ascent 56 Linear a ‘linear’ fireplace?

Its proportions: a 51.75 x 16.75 in band of flame over four feet wide and deliberately low, designed to stretch across a modern feature wall rather than mimic a traditional square firebox.

Do I need a chimney for the Ascent 56 Linear?

No — the BL56 vents through a sealed direct vent pipe out a wall or through the roof, so it installs in great rooms and additions with no chimney or existing flue.

What is the hourly running cost of the Ascent 56 Linear?

Its 28,000 BTU maximum equals roughly 0.28 therms of natural gas per hour — typically 40–45 cents at average U.S. rates, less on lower flame settings.

What framing does the Ascent 56 Linear call for?

A minimum opening of 56.50 in wide x 39.25 in high x 18.50 in deep. Confirm all cavity and venting details against the installation manual in the Catalogs and Manuals tab before construction.

Can a television hang above the Ascent 56 Linear?

Frequently yes — the included internal blower drives heat into the room rather than up the wall, and the manual’s clearance tables tell your installer exactly how much separation the wall above needs.

Will the Ascent 56 Linear light without electricity?

Yes, the ignition’s battery backup keeps it usable in a power outage — the fire lights normally, and only the blower waits for household power to return.

What warranty covers the Ascent 56 Linear?

Napoleon’s President’s Limited Lifetime Warranty, included in full with the BL56 through our authorized Napoleon dealer status.
