The Superior VRL3055 is a 55 in. linear vent-free gas fireplace (VRL3000 series) with a two-tier burner, platinum glass media, interior lighting, electronic ignition and a full-function remote. Because it needs no vent or chimney, it is aimed at homes outside New York City where a long linear flame is wanted on a wall that cannot be vented. It is certified as an unvented gas-fired room heater with an oxygen depletion sensor, and room size rules apply.

Book a free design consultation and we will help you plan the layout, utilities and installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install the VRL3055 in New York City?
No. Vent-free gas appliances are not allowed under the NYC Fuel Gas Code. Consider a direct vent linear fireplace or an electric model instead.
How much heat does it make?
22,000 to 28,000 BTU/h on natural gas and 21,000 to 27,000 BTU/h on propane.
Is the ignition millivolt or electronic?
The VRL3000 series uses electronic ignition with a full-function remote.
Does the room size matter?
Yes. The manual requires enough room volume for the combined input of all gas appliances in the space.
