Ortal Three Sided 51" Gas Fireplace

The fire people see from every seat in the room. Quick Facts • Viewing Area: 55 5/8″ wide × 15 3/4″ tall, glass on three sides. • Fuel: Natural gas; propane conversion kit available. • Controls: Handheld remote with thermostat, timer, and program modes; wall switch and app control available. • Glass Style: Protective mesh screen or double glass. Who It’s For A fireplace set flat into the wall shows its fire to the seats directly in front of it and nothing else—step to the side and it’s gone. You need a fire you can see from every seat. If you’re building or remodeling and want the fireplace to work as architecture—a peninsula, a room divider, the end of a long sightline—the Ortal Three Sided 51 is the one. A single-face unit does the job from head-on; this one holds the room from three directions. What Makes It Special The fire sits behind glass on three sides with no frame around it—your tile, stone, or plaster runs right to the edge of the fire . It’s a built-in, so finish work is part of the job, and the payoff is a fireplace that reads as part of the wall, not an appliance set into one . Ortal’s passive cool wall technology keeps the wall above cool enough to hang a TV or artwork right above the fireplace —no mantel, no gap between the fire and what sits over it. The remote is a thermostat: set 70 and the fireplace holds the room there on its own , adjusting the flame as needed. Timer, program, and eco modes are built in, and app control runs it from your phone. Possible Downsides • The double-glass version requires household power and won’t run during an outage; the screen version without add-ons can run on batteries. • Interior lighting and the black reflective interior are add-ons , not included. • It ships set up for natural gas; propane takes a conversion kit installed by a qualified technician. If you want the fire to be the first thing people notice from anywhere in the room, the Three Sided 51 is the right decision. The room it anchors becomes the one everyone ends up in. Five log sets come included—standard, weathered driftwood, refractory clay, and short or long English logs—with bonfire, campfire, aspen, and charred-branch sets also available, plus single accent branches in black, grey, or white, an optional black reflective interior, and interior lighting.
