Please note that it is not intended to be the primary heat source but rather to supplement your existing heating system. Control the heat settings using the remote, app or the built-in heat timer.

Mounting and Use

The versatile Sideline Elite electric fireplace can be inserted into or mounted on your wall. Follow the provided instructions for easy installation. For optimal placement, position the fireplace at least 8 inches below the ceiling or below a mounted flat screen TV, considering its heating feature. We recommend placing the fireplace at least 6 inches from the floor.

      42" Sideline Elite Fireplace

      We purchased the 42" Sideline Elite because it had the features we wanted and fit the opening for our existing gas fireplace. The unit arrived quickly, but had a problem with the glass panel that wouldn't easily come out. They immediately replaced the unit. I installed the replacement unit and we're completely pleased with both Touchstone as a company and with their fireplace.
