Ortal Front Facing 77 Gas Fireplace

Six and a half feet of fire, and the TV hangs right above it. Quick Facts • Viewing Area: 77½” wide—over six feet of flame. • Fuel: Natural gas, with a propane conversion available. • Controls: Handheld remote with thermostat, timer, and eco settings; wall switch and app control also available. Who It’s For You’ve planned the room around one wall—the sofa faces it, the TV belongs on it—and a standard fireplace would leave most of that wall blank. You need a fire wide enough to carry the whole wall. If you’re building or remodeling and you want the fireplace to read as architecture instead of an appliance , the Ortal Front Facing 77 is the one to plan around. It builds into a framed wall with finish work as part of the job; choose a standard-width unit instead and the fire becomes a window in the wall rather than the wall itself. What Makes It Special The fire is 77½ inches of uninterrupted flame , and the frameless European design lets your tile, stone, or plaster run right to the edge of the glass. The fireplace doesn’t sit in the wall—it is the wall. Ortal’s passive cool wall technology keeps the surface above the fireplace cool enough that a TV or artwork can hang directly above the fire . The one wall everyone faces gets to do both jobs: movie on, fire on, same wall. Possible Downsides • The double glass version and the interior lighting run on household power and won’t operate during a power outage; the mesh-screen version with no add-ons can run on batteries. • Interior lighting is an add-on, not included —only the taller High Glass models in this line come with it standard. • The black reflective interior is an upgrade , not the standard finish. If you want the fire to run the width of the wall and the TV to hang right above it, the Front Facing 77 is the right decision. The wall you designed the room around becomes the reason everyone ends up in this room. Choose the protective mesh screen or double glass heat barrier, pick from five included log sets—standard, weathered driftwood, refractory clay, and short or long English logs—or upgrade to bonfire, campfire, aspen, or charred-branch media, and finish the look with the black reflective interior or interior lighting.
