Carol Rose 48" Outdoor Linear Gas Fireplace OLL48FP12S

Product overview

The Carol Rose OLL48FP12S is a 48-inch, single-sided outdoor linear gas fireplace. Choose the natural-gas or propane model to match the installation. Its illuminated crushed-glass bed and manually adjustable flame create a contemporary outdoor fire feature.

Key features

• Three flame settings: high, medium and low.
• Multicolor LED lighting operates independently of the flame.
• Lighting offers three brightness levels, rapid or gradual color cycling, a paused cycle and seven individual colors.

Included components

The appliance includes its burner and manual controls, LED lighting, AA ignition battery, supplied non-combustible panels, mounting hardware, receptacle and burner service supports. One glass wind panel is supplied for the single-sided model.

Required components

The manufacturer requires approved crushed glass covering 8 square feet for the burner and lighting area; each manufacturer bag covers approximately one square foot. DG1CLF Clear Frost is specified as the required base media; DG1BKP Black Polished and DG1BUC Blue Clear are listed for accent use. The manual permits mixing approved colors and limits the total crushed glass to 8 bags. Glass is selected separately. Decorative droplets cannot substitute for the required crushed glass.

Optional accessories

Decorative droplets are optional accents placed on top of the crushed glass, outside the burner flame. The manual allows no more than one bag in total.

The manual lists WD48LSS weather doors and WG48LT1 taller glass wind deflectors. Remove weather doors before operating the burner. Fuel conversion must use the correct manufacturer kit and qualified service: 33815 converts natural gas to propane; 33814 converts propane to natural gas.

Specifications

Installation and safety notes

This is an outdoor-only appliance, not an indoor unvented heater. It must not open into a residence and is not equipped with an oxygen-depletion-sensor pilot. The manual does not specify a chimney or flue connection; adequate outdoor combustion and ventilation air remains essential. Covered and partially enclosed installations must satisfy the manual’s wall/open-perimeter diagrams. Where a covered enclosure has three side walls, at least 30 percent of its horizontal periphery must remain permanently open; screening requires an adjustment for the mesh open area. Minimum porch area is 96 square feet and minimum ceiling height is 90 inches.

Maintain at least 6 inches from the inside fireplace opening to a combustible side wall and 24 inches from the top opening to the ceiling. Minimum alcove width is 60 inches and maximum alcove depth is 24 inches. Combustible mantels require the depth-dependent clearances in the manual diagram. These dimensions do not replace the full installation drawings.

Provide drainage beneath the fireplace. DT48LSS is an optional drain-tray accessory; a drainage path is still required when that tray is not used. The manual calls for at least 6 inches of additional enclosure height when installing the drain tray to accommodate its connection and tubing. The unit sheds moderate water but is not waterproof and does not function as an exterior weather barrier. Plan flashing, sloped drainage surfaces and shelter from direct wind.

A separately accessible external gas shutoff and the correct fuel supply are required installation provisions.

Keep burner ports, air intake, controls and ventilation paths clear. Arrange inspection before use and at least annually by a qualified service person; inspect more frequently where insects or debris accumulate. Allow the appliance to cool before service. Stainless steel can develop an outdoor patina or surface oxidation; use a non-abrasive stainless-steel cleaner as directed. Never operate with the weather door fitted.

Warranty summary

The manual provides a limited five-year parts warranty for appliance components, excluding remote controls, thermostats, accessories and replacement parts, which have a limited one-year parts warranty. Coverage is for the original purchaser, subject to proper installation, use and maintenance and the full manufacturer terms. Travel, diagnosis, freight, removal and reinstallation costs are excluded as detailed in the warranty. Installation and service must follow the exact manufacturer manual and applicable codes.
