Sold and installed from our Ballard showroom · SKU RL50
A wood fire as wide as a modern gas linear, with heat sent where you want it.
Quick Facts
- Maximum Log Size: Up to 24"
- Fuel: Wood.
- Lining: Refractory brick, included.
- Heat Distribution: Heat recovery system with two outlet ducts and grills, included.
- Door: Glass door and screen on a counterweighted guillotine.
Who It's For
Long, linear fireplaces are almost always gas. If you want the wide, modern look and a fire that crackles, the choices get thin fast. You need a linear fireplace that burns real wood. The Renaissance Linear 50 is for the homeowner building or remodeling a contemporary room who won't give up wood to get the look. Choose a gas linear and you get the shape without the fire; choose this one and you get both.
What Makes It Special
The fire runs 50 inches wide, wall to wall, with a refractory brick lining included and room for logs up to 24 inches.
The glass door and the screen are counterweighted and lift upward, disappearing into the facing above the fireplace. Close the door for a sealed fire with no heat loss up the chimney, or close only the screen to hear the crackle and pop.
Every Linear 50 comes with a heat recovery system: two 10-inch outlet ducts, five feet long, plus two inlet and two outlet grills, so the heat travels through the home instead of pooling in front of the glass.
Possible Downsides
- Refractory brick is the only lining. The vermiculite panels offered on the Rumfords are not available for the Linear 50.
- It is a wood fire. You bring wood in and take ash out.
If you want the long, modern look of a linear fireplace with a real wood fire, the Renaissance Linear 50 is the right decision. The fire stretches across the wall, and the whole room turns toward it.
Options include long linear intake and outlet grills, square grill vents for lower ceilings, extra duct, and an outside air kit.

Can you get an instant online estimate for the Renaissance Linear 50?
Yes—right on this page. Configure the Renaissance Linear 50 and get a free, no-obligation instant estimate covering the unit as configured, a fitting vent kit, and professional installation labor. No phone call required.
What's included in the online estimate?
The unit with the options you selected, a real vent kit matched to your venting, and the installation labor for a typical setup. Your free one-to-two-hour in-home visit confirms every detail before anything is ordered.
Who pulls the permit?
We do, on every job, in every jurisdiction we serve—and we meet the inspector. It's built into the process, not an upsell.
Can you see the Renaissance Linear 50 in a photo of your own room?
Yes. The Visualizer tab on this page renders the Renaissance Linear 50 into a straight-on photo of your wall, scaled to the room, so you see it in your space before you price a thing. Phone photos are fine. It's a faithful preview, not an architectural drawing; sizing, venting, and trim get confirmed at the free in-home visit.
Is the online estimate real, or a rough guess?
Real, and honest about what it is: a price for the Renaissance Linear 50 as configured, a fitting vent kit, and professional installation labor, built from real Seattle installs. It is not binding. The free one-to-two-hour in-home visit checks your actual house before the price is final, and nothing is ordered until then.
Do you install and service the Renaissance Linear 50 yourselves?
Yes, both. Our own in-house installers set the Renaissance Linear 50, run the venting and the gas, pull the permit, and light the first fire before leaving. Afterward the service desk looks after every unit that came from Sutter, with factory-trained technicians and a real date when you call.
