Monessen 42" GCUF/GRUF Series Vent Free Circulating Gas Firebox with Refractory & Cottage Clay Firebrick

GCUF/GRUF Series Vent Free Gas Firebox

The GRUF/GCUF series fireboxes provide the option to choose a louvered design or a radiant, clean face design. Choose from a selection of firebrick options and accessories for a fireplace perfectly suited to your tastes. 

The G(C/R)UF series of vent free fireboxes from Monessen offers flexibility with 3 sizes - 32, 36, and 42 inches - and the option of circulating or radiant design to suit your requirements perfectly.

Available with your choice of firebrick as well as a range of optional accessories, the G(C/R)UF series is easy to incorporate into your design requirements.

It has all the features that you certainly need in order to suit all of your preferences quickly and conveniently. It is also available along with your choice of firebrick including the range of other optional accessories. Among the key features of this item includes zero clearance design for straightforward installation and convenience while doing so.

A Monessen vent free firebox is the perfect way to display and operate your Monessen vent free log set. While our log sets can be utilized in an existing approved wood-burning fireplace (converted with a gas line), if your home does not already have an existing fireplace, a vent free firebox is an economical way to add a fireplace to your home. Installed in either your wall or a free-standing cabinet, a vent free firebox is simply the metal combustion chamber of a traditional fireplace system, without the log set and engine. You then add the vent free log set (with engine) of your choice to complete it.

Monessen offers one of the most diverse lineups of vent free gas fireboxes available, making it easy to find the right look for your home. Enjoy beautiful flames, excellent heating, and a customized look with the addition of your choice of Monessen log sets.

Because vent-free fireboxes and log sets are designed to be installed and operated without a chimney, flue, or vent, they can be installed in locations in your home where it would be impossible or cost-prohibitive to install a vented fireplace. They provide the most economical installation, only requiring a connection to a gas line.

Monessen vent free fireboxes allow for zero clearance installation, which means they may be installed flush against any combustible surface such as drywall or wood. This gives you added flexibility and helps save installation dollars when deciding where to install your fireplace, whether on an interior or exterior wall. (It is important to remember that the appliance should be sized to fit the area in which it is to be installed and must meet any additional regional or local requirements.

Monessen offers a large selection of vent-free log sets (sold separately) that are a perfect complement to your new fireplace. 

GCUF/GRUF Series Vent Free Circulating Gas Fireboxes are available in 32", 36", and 42" sizes with Refractory & Cottage Clay Firebrick standard.
