Dynasty Melody 3-Sided Built-In Linear Smart Electric Fireplace

A Built-In Electric Fireplace You Can Install Three-Sided, Two-Sided or Single-Sided

The Dynasty Melody is a built-in electric fireplace with glass on three sides and a deep flame bed, framed into a wall so it shows from the front and both ends, from the front and one end, or from the front only. It plugs into a standard 120-volt outlet or can be hardwired, needs no venting, and runs from its remote, the Dynasty app, or Alexa, Google Home and Siri.

Best for a Room Divider, Peninsula Wall or Open Corner

Three-sided suits a short wall that juts into a room or divides two spaces, where the flame shows to seating on either side. Two-sided turns the corner of an L-shaped wall, and single-sided makes it a deep conventional built-in. The configuration is set by the framing, so decide it before the wall is built.

Every Configuration Frames 12 1/2 Inches Deep, With No Side Clearance

Dynasty's installation guide gives the same 12 1/2-inch framing depth for one-, two- and three-sided installs, and asks for no clearance at the top, bottom or sides in any of them. That is more than twice what a 2x6 wall gives you, so the Melody needs a built-out wall or a purpose-built enclosure. Edging strips attach to whichever ends are left open. Keep furniture and drapery at least 3 feet from the front.

Red, White and Yellow Flames Over a Bed You Can Set to Any Color

The flame mixes red, white and yellow at adjustable intensities, the bed underneath can be tuned to any color with six flicker speeds, and a white top light adds its own glow. Crystal and log media both come in the box. The flame works with or without heat, and on heat Dynasty rates it at about 5,000 BTU and 400 square feet.

Three Sides of Glass, but the Heat Only Comes Out the Front

The heater faces forward whatever the configuration, so in a peninsula or room-divider install only the front side gets the warmth. Put the main seating there and treat the ends as the view. At full heat it draws about 12.5 amps, so keep other heavy appliances off its circuit.
