The Superior DRL4048 is a 48 inch linear direct vent gas fireplace for a feature wall in a new build or a major renovation. It runs on natural gas or propane, vents through 4-1/2 inch and 7-1/2 inch Secure Vent pipe, and offers a flush hearth floor with a ceramic glass screen, so it suits an open living room that wants a long flame without an outside-air draft.
