Create the inviting look of a traditional fireplace with the SimpliFire SF-BI36-EB Built-In Electric Fireplace. Its expansive 36-inch viewing area, detailed brick-style interior and realistic log-and-grate set produce a warm, dimensional presentation that works beautifully in custom mantels, feature walls and new built-in installations. The clean black surround gives the fireplace a timeless appearance that complements both traditional and transitional interiors.
The included multifunction remote provides convenient control over the flame, thermostat and heating functions from across the room. When connected to a standard 120-volt circuit, the fireplace delivers approximately 4,800 BTUs of supplemental warmth. For greater heating performance, it can be professionally connected to a compatible 208- or 240-volt circuit, producing up to 10,000 BTUs.
Designed specifically for permanent built-in installation, the SF-BI36-EB combines the familiar character of a wood-burning fireplace with the cleanliness and convenience of electric operation. Its flame effects can be enjoyed independently from the heater, allowing the fireplace to provide relaxing ambience throughout every season without wood, gas, smoke or ash.
30" built-in fireplace with zero-clearance install. Heats up to 800 sq. ft., with year-round flames and remote.
