Remii 55" Extra Tall Deep Electric Fireplace 102755-XT

Product overview

The Remii Extra Tall is a 55-inch built-in electric fireplace with a viewing area close to 18 inches high, so the fire fills the wall like a true focal point. Black glass side panels and a mirrored media tray add depth and reflection, making the flames look bigger and brighter.

Two flame sets glow in blue, yellow and orange, and canopy lights wash the media in 13 colors. Canyon Brown and Ocean Blue fire glass come standard, and the deep media tray has room for Remii log sets when you want a more natural fire.

A two-stage heater warms rooms up to about 500 square feet, and the flames run on their own whenever you only want the glow. One remote runs the flames, the canopy lights and the heat. Finish the wall right to the glass or use the included surround, indoors or in a covered outdoor space protected from direct rain.

Specifications

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. Plug in and test the fireplace before you build it in. Two people are recommended to remove the surround and set the unit.

To install, remove the surround, refit the framing plates and bend them up, set the fireplace in the opening and screw it to the studs. Test it again, cover the glass with plastic, then finish the wall and refit the trim. To add media, remove the front glass bracket and glass first. Hardwiring must be done by a qualified electrician, and a bathroom install needs GFI protection.

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.
