Monessen 42" Lo-Rider LCUF Clean Face Vent Free Firebox with Traditional Refractory Firebrick

Bring home the charm of a traditional masonry fireplace—without the chimney. The Monessen Lo-Rider Vent-Free Firebox features a low-profile flush hearth that creates the illusion of a true wood-burning setup, complete with one of the tallest firebox openings available. This expansive view puts your Monessen vent-free log set (sold separately) on full display, delivering warmth and ambiance in a clean, modern design.

Designed for maximum versatility, the LCUF Series offers zero-clearance installation, meaning it can be placed flush against combustible materials like drywall or wood. Whether you're working with a new build or a renovation, this firebox installs virtually anywhere a gas line can be run. Choose between circulating or radiant models and customize with your choice of firebrick panels and optional accessories.
