Choosing a SimpliFire linear electric fireplace for an existing wall
If you are choosing a SimpliFire Allusion electric fireplace, start with wall depth. The Slim, in four widths from 40 to 72 inches with glass 12 inches tall, fits a 2 by 4 wall or hangs on its included wall bracket. SimpliFire Allusion Platinum, in three widths from 50 to 72 inches with glass 15 inches tall, can be fully recessed in a 2 by 6 wall so it sits flush with the wall. It can also hang with an optional wall mount kit. The Allusion Edge, in four widths from 50 to 100 inches, slides into a finished wall and needs 2 by 6 framing. SimpliFire Format, a 36 inch fireplace with mantel widths from 43 to 60 inches, comes with a floating mantel and hangs on the wall without construction. Every unit comes with a remote control. You can run the flames with or without heat, except on the Forum, which has no heat. Compare our wall mounted fireplaces and linear electric fireplaces across brands.
For a wall your builder is framing
The SimpliFire Scion electric fireplace, in two widths from 43 to 55 inches, suits a framed wall. This built-in electric fireplace lets wall finishes meet its edge. SimpliFire Scion Trinity, also in two widths from 43 to 55 inches, installs in a flat wall, corner or three sided bay. SimpliFire Triton, in three widths from 50 to 78 inches, has 20 inch tall glass and timber logs. A linking kit joins several Tritons end to end. Scion and Triton require hardwiring and offer Wi-Fi, phone and voice control. Explore three sided and multi-sided fireplaces for more layouts.
For a covered porch or patio
SimpliFire Forum, in two widths from 43 to 55 inches, suits a covered porch or patio. It gives no heat at all, so you can put a TV above it. It comes with clear crystals and driftwood logs. Keep it out of direct sun for better flame visibility. Compare outdoor electric fireplaces.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the SimpliFire Allusion Slim, Platinum and Edge?
The Slim is about 4 inches deep and fits a 2 by 4 wall or hangs on its bracket. Platinum fits flush in a 2 by 6 wall and has taller glass. Edge needs 2 by 6 framing, slides into a finished opening and adds phone and voice control. All three plug in or hardwire.
What is the downside of a SimpliFire linear electric fireplace?
The flame is an electric effect, not real fire. Heat takes the chill off one room, not a house. Triton gives about twice the heat on a heavier circuit, while Forum gives none. You need a dedicated outlet or an electrician to hardwire it. Built-in units need framing, but there is no gas line or chimney.
Can I put a SimpliFire linear electric fireplace outdoors?
Yes. Forum suits a covered porch, patio or outdoor kitchen wall, with coated parts and logs that withstand sun and rain. It gives no heat and looks best out of direct sun. Scion and Triton need a covered outdoor room protected from rain. Check these placement requirements when choosing your SimpliFire linear electric fireplace.
