Product overview
Majestic MER42MN is a 42-inch Meridian Modern indoor direct-vent gas fireplace. The contemporary fire bed uses separately ordered approved crushed glass.
Key features
- Sealed direct-vent combustion system.
- IntelliFire Touch intermittent-pilot ignition with emergency battery backup.
- Model-specific interior and heat-management choices.
Included components
Included: ceramic glass, two-sided black ceramic-glass liner and 12-foot wall-switch wire.
Required components
A model-compatible decorative barrier front, approved vent system, appropriate gas connection and electrical supply are required. Operate only with the fixed glass and barrier installed.
Approved crushed glass is required: 2-1/2 five-pound bags (12-1/2 lb); purchase three bags and retain the excess. Mixed approved colors must be mixed before placement. Spread only the prescribed thin layer, leave the pilot-protection area clear and follow the placement diagram.
Optional accessories
Optional STONES-NATURAL uses three bags and the supplied positioning jig; stones do not replace the required glass. A compatible remote, fan and Wi-Fi control are optional accessories unless a chosen powered-vent configuration specifically requires additional controls.

Installation and safety notes
This is supplemental room heat, not a primary whole-home heating system. Plan the vent route, approved termination, gas connection, electrical supply and required barrier before ordering. Minimum side and rear clearance is 1/2 inch; keep 36 inches clear in front. Mantel, ceiling, finishing-material and optional heat-management clearances depend on the exact installation; use the manual diagrams. Installation and service must follow manufacturer documentation and applicable codes.
