You want a modern fireplace with a wide, clean-lined look and bold flame presentation, but most linear fireplaces fall short with shallow flames, dim lighting, or limited customization. When a modern fireplace doesn't deliver strong, vibrant flames or a high-quality media bed, it makes the entire wall feel flat and lifeless. A unit that looks impressive in size but lacks flame performance becomes a wasted investment, and you lose the contemporary focal point your space deserves. The Empire McKinley 60-Inch Linear Direct Vent Gas Fireplace combines modern minimalist styling with powerful, high-impact flames. With a wide 60" viewing window, customizable interior panels, and your choice of fire glass or logs, it creates a striking contemporary centerpiece that brings warmth and visual drama to any room. Advanced direct-vent technology ensures clean, consistent performance with impressive flame height and clarity.
