A real fire look, 365 nights a year—heat optional. Quick Facts • Heating Capacity: 0–500 sq ft • Viewing Area: 26″ • Fuel: Electric. • Controls: Remote, hidden touch controls, or the Glen Dimplex Connect app; built-in timer up to 8 hours. • Fan: Included Who It’s For A gas line or a chimney decides where most fireplaces can go, and plenty of rooms have neither—so the bedroom, the den, or the basement wall stays a wall. You need a fire that runs on the wiring the house already has . If you want flames you can enjoy on a July evening as easily as a January one, with heat when you ask for it and none when you don’t, the Dimplex Vital Spark 26 is that fire. Choose a heat-only unit instead and the fireplace sits dark for most of the year. What Makes It Special The flame runs with or without heat, so it earns its wall space every month of the year. And it adjusts: 13 flame colors, a five-color ember bed, three brightness levels, and three flame speeds —a low amber glow for a movie night, something cooler and brighter for a summer evening. Press the speaker button on the remote and a crackling-fire soundtrack plays along with it. When you do want warmth, the fan-forced heater covers up to 1,000 square feet on demand, and the built-in timer shuts it down after as long as eight hours. Because it needs no chimney and no gas line, it goes in rooms other fireplaces can’t—a 120-volt plug kit comes in the box, and it can be hardwired instead. Possible Downsides • Heat is fan-forced only —there is no radiant option, so warmth depends on the blower running. • The molded logset is the only media style ; there is no glass or crystal alternative. • One-year limited warranty on electrical components. If you want a fire in a room that was never getting a chimney or a gas line, the Vital Spark 26 is the right decision. The room it’s in becomes the room the house lives in—summer evenings included. The Vital Spark comes in five sizes, and every part of the look—flame color, ember bed, media theme, brightness, and speed—adjusts from the remote, the hidden touch controls, or the Glen Dimplex Connect app.

Allure Vertical Prestige 32 NEFVC32H

A full-height fire for a wall barely wider than a doorway. Quick Facts • Heating Capacity: 150–250 sq ft • Viewing Area: 15¼” x 20″ • Fuel: Electric. • Controls: Full-feature remote with thermostat, plus an easy-access panel on the unit. • Fan: Included Who It’s For The wall that could hold a fire in your house probably isn’t a wide one—it’s the narrow stretch in the kitchen, the bathroom, the bedroom, the entry. Most fireplaces run wide, so that wall stays bare and the idea stays parked. You need a fire that runs tall , not wide. If you want real flame presence in a compact space —no gas line, no chimney, no renovation—the Allure Vertical Prestige 32 was built for exactly that wall. Choose a standard landscape unit instead and you’re back to hunting for width the room doesn’t have. What Makes It Special The fire runs portrait—taller than it is wide—so the flames climb the glass instead of spreading across it, and exterior light panels on both sides wash the wall in color. Change the flame, the ember bed, and the side lights independently, and the same unit reads warm and traditional one night, cool and contemporary the next. Installation is the other half of the appeal. It hangs on the wall with the included bracket and plugs in —no gas line, no venting, no construction—or it can be partially recessed into the wall for a flush, built-in look. The flame runs with or without heat, so it earns its place in July as easily as January, and the fan-driven heater takes the chill off the room when you want it. Possible Downsides • It warms one compact room, not the whole floor. Think of the heat as comfort for the space it hangs in, with your furnace carrying the rest of the house. • This size includes crystal media only. If you want a log set in the fire, the 38-inch Allure Vertical includes birch logs along with the crystals. If you want a real focal-point fire on a wall too narrow for a standard fireplace, the Allure Vertical Prestige 32 is the right decision. The wall you used to walk past becomes the one the whole room faces. Flame color (orange, yellow, blue, or combined), six ember bed colors, six side accent light colors, and adjustable flame speed and brightness all set from the included remote or the panel on the unit.

Allure Vertical Prestige 38 NEFVC38H

A full-height fire on a wall that was never going to fit a fireplace. Quick Facts • Heating Capacity: 150–250 sq ft • Viewing Area: 15¼” x 26″ • Fuel: Electric. • Controls: Full-feature remote with thermostat, plus an easy-access control panel on the unit. • Fan: Included Who It’s For Some rooms don’t have a wall wide enough for a fireplace—a bathroom, a stair landing, the strip of wall at the end of the kitchen cabinets—so the fire never happens and the room goes without a focal point. You need a fireplace that runs tall instead of wide and plugs into a standard outlet. If you want a real fire presence in a space where a gas unit was never an option— no gas line, no venting, no construction —the Allure Vertical 38 is the one. What Makes It Special Most electric fireplaces run wide and need a wide wall to match. This one turns the format on its side: a tall, narrow fire that hangs on the wall with the included bracket and plugs in . If you want it sitting flush with the wall for a built-in look, it can be partially recessed instead. The fire itself is yours to tune. The flame burns orange, yellow, blue, or a mix, over a crystal ember bed with a birch log set, and light panels on both sides of the unit wash the wall in a color you pick to match the room or the mood. The flame runs with or without heat , so it earns its wall space in July as much as January— a fire for the evening, not just for the cold . Possible Downsides • The heat is supplemental, not primary. It warms the room it hangs in—approximately 150–250 square feet—and won’t stand in for the furnace. • Flame and heat both need the outlet. In a power outage it goes dark like any other appliance. If you want the fire without the wide wall, the gas line, or the construction, the Allure Vertical 38 is the right decision. The wall you used to walk past becomes the thing people stop to look at. Flame colors come in orange, yellow, blue, or combined, the ember bed and side accent lights each offer white, blue, green, yellow, purple, and red, and the crystal media and birch log set are included.

Astound Built-in NEFB50AB

A convincing fire on any wall in the house—no chimney, no gas line, and a look you can change with the seasons. Quick Facts • Heating Capacity: 250–500 sq ft • Fuel: Electric. • Controls: Remote with thermostat included; Napoleon Home app and Google Home or Alexa voice control. • Fan: Included Who It’s For Some rooms were never built for a fire—no chimney, no gas line, nowhere to run a vent. And most built-in fireplaces commit you to one look for the next twenty years. You need a fireplace that installs where a chimney can’t and changes when your décor does. If you want the fire to be the focal point of a living room, den, or bedroom—and you’d like to restyle it for the holidays as easily as the mantel above it—the Astound Built-In goes on any wall with electricity and never asks you to settle on one look. Count on it to warm the room it’s in while the furnace holds the rest of the house. What Makes It Special The glass front flips down, so changing the fire’s look takes minutes, not a service call. Swap the logs, beads, or crystals the way you swap throw pillows —birch logs for December, blue glass beads for summer, black crystals when the room goes modern. It’s the rare fireplace you can redecorate along with the room it anchors. The upgraded orange and yellow flames carry spark effects that mimic a real wood fire , behind tinted glass that keeps them vivid even in a bright, sunlit room. The angled front glass projects heat out at you rather than up the wall, and the remote’s thermostat holds the room at the temperature you set. From your phone, the Napoleon Home app saves your favorite settings and runs a schedule; Google Home or Alexa handles it by voice, even when you’re not home. Possible Downsides • It warms one room, not the house —treat it as comfort heat for the space it’s in. • Full heat output requires hardwiring at 240 volts ; on a standard 120-volt connection it delivers half the heat. • The birch logs, mineral rocks, glass beads, and black crystals are optional kits ; the driftwood log set is the standard media. If you want a fire on a wall that could never take a chimney, and a fireplace you can restyle as easily as the room around it, the Astound Built-In is the right decision. The room you put it in becomes the one everyone ends up in. The Astound Built-In takes a birch log kit, mineral rocks, black crystals, and glass beads in amber, black, blue, clear, or topaz; flames run yellow, orange, or combined; an adjustable finishing trim is included for a frameless or framed look, and an optional wall mount controller keeps the controls in one place.
