How to Install a Touchstone Sideline Series Electric Fireplace 

*Very easy to set up and use, attractive but be sure you understand the height--it's not tall. The heat is not overwhelming, but steady and pleasant fireplace **fireplace.homes** . It's quiet, too. I like the possibility of easily moving it from room to room in the event we want supplemental heat elsewhere. Definitely a good buy.*

Thank you very much for this install video. I bought a home that had just been remodeled and they installed this exact fireplace. Well they half installed it because it just fell out of the wall!!! They had only inserted it into the fireplace, it was not secured to the wall. I can't believe some of the half assed workmanship I'm finding in this house!!!!!!

My husband couldn't get the front glass off of our new fireplace to install it. Just watching you 'unhook' yours helped him. Glad you posted this because I was getting tired of trying to figure out why unscrewing the screws wasn't enough. These manuals need to be written by people who are not installers.

Awsome quick shipping, with good packeging. Above all outstanding customer service!!!

Hoping a model in the future will have more than 3 color's. White flame with crystals is a really nice look with white framed fireplaces.

Great help.

How close can a TV hang above this fireplace or any electric fireplace for that matter?

Good video thanks.

does a 40" sideline need a dedicated plug?

Hello, if I am using real stone, how many inches should I give on the top of the unit so that the face plate can be installed? If the unit is installed flush with the mounting surface of the cement board or durarock without the face plate, what is the maximum thickness of the stone? The face plate goes in and then down, correct? It would be a disaster if the unit and stone is installed and then I couldn’t get the face plate on. Thanks for your time and answers.

Can you deliver the product in india and how much cost of 60" electric fireplace

That's nice

What was the depth of your recess in this video? I'm framing a basement and trying to decide what to do? Do you have any photos of the fireplace recessed in standard 2x4 walls? I'd like to get an idea of what that would look like, partially recessed.

Interest in the metal frame electric fireplace just above the one you installed. What is the product model for the 50 or 60' in the metal frame? Also, I assume we can order directly from the listed website?

I would have bought and one from you guys except for I only have an 18in wide by 36 and 1/4

Is there a way to mount this to a brick fireplace? We want to install this into the existing opening on our brick fireplace. Or would I need to mount a wooden frame inside the firebox to secure this to?

Can you mouth both the log and crystals at the same time? Or is it one or the other???

Your website shows the fireplace with the crystals AND the logs installed together (logs on top of crystals) - which looks nice

Does it need any type of respiration on the back or sides if placed inside a wall as the video shows?

I am going to ask the same question from below that was never answered. Can someone please answer?

We are considering mounting in a brick fireplace 34" opening. What is the horizontal distance between the mounting screws on the 36" model?

Is non glare glass an option? It looks like lots of reflection from the glass you installed.

why would the heat blow out the top? It should blow out the bottom where the cold air is.

Can you please tell me what type of screwdriver is needed to remove the screws for the glass removal?

are the color options for the flames?

In the video what model is the fireplace right above the one you installed? The matte black one a little smaller than the one you installed

How to price

Do you have any tv remote interference with this fire ?

Can you remove that "ts" logo on the lower right?

The manual says 8” clearance for objects above the fireplace, but the guy in the video said 12”. Is 8” alright for a sound bar?

I purchased the 40" and there is extremely limited access to the two screws for the glass front. What size screwdriver do you recommend? I now have to stop my project and go to Home Depot for a screwdriver. REALLY?

Would love to know where to find that exact fake stone wall material 😃

Are they not real flames?

Does the 40” come in a steel frame?

HOw much dose it cost
