Remii 45" Extra Slim Electric Fireplace 102745-XS

Product overview

The Remii Extra Slim is a 45-inch built-in electric fireplace only 4 inches deep, made for walls where a deep firebox will not fit. Its full-frame viewing area lets drywall, stone or tile run right up to the glass for a clean, modern face, or you can finish it with the black steel surround that comes in the box.

Three LED light strips color the flames blue, yellow and orange, and you can turn each one up or down to blend the look you like. A bed of Canyon Brown and Ocean Blue fire glass sits under the flames, and the effect runs with or without heat, so the fire can stay on in every season.

When you want warmth, a two-stage fan heater takes the chill off rooms up to about 500 square feet. One remote runs the flames and the heat. It plugs into a standard outlet or can be hardwired, and it is approved for covered outdoor spaces protected from direct rain as well as indoor rooms.

Installation and safety notes

Keep furniture, curtains, bedding and other combustibles at least 3 feet (0.9 m) from the front, and keep them away from the sides and back. Avoid spots where sunlight from a window or door falls on the glass. Plug the fireplace into a grounded 120-volt outlet and test it before you build it in.

In a bathroom the fireplace must be on a GFI-protected circuit and well away from tubs and showers, since it is not watertight. Hardwiring and any new wiring must be done by a qualified electrician to local and national codes. If the overheat cut-off trips, disconnect power for at least 10 minutes before switching it back on.

Outdoors, install it only where it is protected from direct water. The overhang must extend to the front and each side by at least half the roof-line height, measured from the base of the fireplace, so an 8-ft roof line needs a 4-ft overhang. Remii's warranty requires the stainless-steel cover and/or suitable shelter for outdoor or high-moisture installs, and proof of purchase for it.
