What are Linear Gas Fireplaces
Linear Gas Fireplaces are one of the most popular designs out there, and for a good reason. They are horizontal in design and are very sleek and modern in appearance. In place of a square firebox that takes up a chunk of wall, these fireplaces span the width of the wall. The result is a panoramic view of the flames as they dance in the firebox. Linear designs work very well in living rooms, master suites, and open spaces. And with remote operation, realistic flame technology, and customizable decorative bases, they provide a high level of convenience and beauty all in one.
Type of Linear Gas Fireplaces
The different types of linear gas fireplaces you can find:
Direct Vent / Vented Linear Gas Fireplaces
Direct vent linear gas fireplaces are some of the safest and most efficient fireplaces you can own. The direct vent system expels combustion gases outside and intakes fresh air, keeping your indoor air quality up to standard. Direct vent linear gas fireplaces are ideal for new construction and remodels, since they have great efficiency, versatile installation, and even heat distribution.
Ventless Linear Gas Fireplaces
Ventless linear gas fireplaces are not connected to an external vent, so you can install one in a room where you may have venting limitations. They push the heat into the home and are easier to install with a lower installation cost. A ventless linear fireplace is a fantastic option for supplemental heat and offers the same sleek modern gas fireplace style as vented units, but with more installation flexibility.

How Linear Gas Fireplaces Work
A linear gas fireplace is a type of gas fireplace that operates by burning either natural gas or propane to create flames. A direct vent model will pull outside air into the fireplace to fuel the combustion process and then vent the exhaust through a separate vent pipe. This ensures that your indoor air quality is not affected while allowing the fireplace to operate efficiently. The end result is dependable performance, safe heat, and an attractive flame display without the mess of wood logs or ashes.
How Far Off the Floor Should a Linear Gas Fireplace Be?
For both safety and visual comfort reasons, most linear gas fireplaces should be installed 12 to 36 inches above the floor. The proper height within this range will depend on the model, size of the room, and furniture placement. Our team can help you determine the height that is appropriate for both manufacturer specs and the ideal viewing experience.
