Forte Steel Mesh Screen Non Reflective 40 Inch Recessed Electric Fireplace 80048

The Forte™ Steel 40 Inch Electric Fireplace combines classic aesthetics with modern functionality. Its matte black metal mesh screen front evokes a traditional fireplace feel, while its innovative design allows for flush mounting into the wall. Installation instructions are simple and provided, and it is recommended to place the electric fireplace at least 8 inches below the ceiling or mounted flat screen TV for safe clearance. We recommend placing the fireplace at least 6 inches from the floor.
