Multiple Flame Colors

The Forte Electric Fireplace offers customization with three flame color options and five intensity settings. Enjoy the cozy ambiance of realistic flames in orange, blue, or blue-orange hues. The Forte is equipped with 10-color ember bed options that operate separately from flames. The remote control ensures convenient operation for your preferred lighting and heat levels.

Built-in Heater, Year-Round Use

Enjoy the beauty and warmth of a fireplace without the open flame or cleanup. The built-in heater warms up to 400 sq. ft. with 2 heat settings. The heat-free option allows you to enjoy the realistic flames in any climate or season.

Mounting Above and Below the Fireplace 

For safe clearance from heat vents, mount the fireplace at least 8 inches from the ceiling. Leave 8 inches of space between the fireplace and a flat-screen TV for TV mounting. We recommend placing the fireplace at least 6 inches from the floor.

Love our inserts!

We have a fireplace that opens up into the living room and the dining room. We bought 2, forte 80006 40” inserts and just love them. They were just a tad short but nothing a little crown molding painted black couldn’t fix. Everyone that comes over goes nuts over them. Great packaging and super easy install!

Overall good product.

My only feedback is the fire sound device upgrade is a waste of $$. You can’t hear it unless it’s right next to you and also it’s manually controlled which defeats the purpose. I thought it would be integrated with the fireplace somehow.

Love!

We originally had a brick, traditional wood burning fireplace. I was sick of the look and needed a change!! Not to mention how much work a wood burning fireplace is. Who wants to chop wood in the freezing cold, stoke a fire while relaxing and watching a Christmas movie?! My husband built around the brick and completely remodeled our fireplace. The Touchstone Recessed 40 inch 80006 Forte makes it look so modern and love the fact that I can have the fire “burning” without the heat. It makes my living room sooooo cozy!!

Love it

Placed this into my existing wood fireplace. Needed to provide wooden frame, but now looks built in. Used river rocks instead of provided stones for a more natural look! Love it Great alternative to more expensive gas insert!
