Mendota ML54 Linear Gas Fireplace Décor/Timberline

The Mendota ML54 is a linear gas fireplace with a long, clean fire line. Its 55 1/8 by 19 1/2 inch viewing area stretches the flame across the wall, which is why people pick a linear in the first place.

You choose how it looks. Timberline sets logs over the burner for a classic fire, and Décor uses modern media for a contemporary finish. Behind the glass, dual blowers come standard, electronic ignition works with a thermostatic remote, and it's approved for Mendota power vent kits.

What Makes the ML54 Different

• Long fire line. A 55 1/8 by 19 1/2 inch viewing area gives a wide, linear flame.
• Timberline or Décor. Logs for a traditional look or modern media for a clean, contemporary one.
• Blowers standard. Dual blowers rated at 190 CFM in free air come with it.

Ownership & Maintenance

Mendota's manual doesn't list which functions work on backup power, so ask us before relying on it during an outage. Keep the battery holder and harness with the fireplace. We offer ongoing service for our customers.

A linear fireplace changes the whole wall, so it's worth planning together. Visit our Auburn, Brunswick, and Yarmouth showrooms for help with framing, venting, clearances, and installation.
