To help you find the perfect Monessen fireplace for your home, we've put together this in-depth guide detailing some of their amazing hearth products.

Monessen Gas Fireplaces

Like all their offerings, Monessen's gas fireplaces are vent-free. Vent-free hearth products are highly prized because they offer greater heat output than their vented counterparts, and the lack of ventilation requirements makes them easier to install. It should be noted that vent-free fireplaces are restricted by some building codes, so be sure to check your local regulations before buying a great Monessen gas fireplace.

Monessen Built-In Gas Fireplaces

A built-in gas fireplace is perfect for newly built homes or major remodels because they often require special framing or a complete mantel build. Whether you're a homeowner or home builder, you'll want to take a close look at the great built-in ventless gas fireplaces made by Monessen. One popular choice is their impressive Artisan collection, with great features like:

• Multiple trim kits to suit any style of decor
• Extraordinary 99.9% efficiency rating
• An IntelliFire Plus ignition system that can be controlled from your phone

Monessen Gas Fireplace Inserts

If your home has an existing fireplace that you're looking to update, a gas fireplace insert is the way to go. They slot right into the masonry firebox, making them easy to install, and because Monessen's gas fireplace inserts are vent-free, you won't have to worry about ventilation concerns either. Our most popular Monessen gas fireplace insert is this handsome Solstice model, which provides:

• A wide variety of customization options to suit your tastes
• Realistic log set and traditional design for a classic look
• Your choice between a millivolt or intermittent pilot ignition

Monessen Gas Log Sets

Another great option for those looking to refresh an existing hearth space is a gas log set.
