A plug-in linear fire that recesses into an everyday wall or hangs on it—without a wide black glass frame. The 50-inch Spectrum Slimline finishes with a slim trim, so tile or wood can run right up to the flame.

- Viewing Area: 46" wide
- Fuel: Electric.
- Controls: Remote and a touch-button panel with digital thermostat and timer.
- Fan: Included
Who It's For
Adding a fireplace usually means a contractor, a deep wall, and a big frame around the glass. You need a fire that goes in like a picture, not a remodel. If you want a linear fire in a bedroom, an office, or a condo wall and want it to plug into an outlet, the 50-inch Spectrum Slimline is the one. Pick a deep built-in and you're opening up the wall; pick this one and the job is a recess in an ordinary wall, or a wall mount.
What Makes It Special
Modern Flames took away the large black glass surround that most recessed electrics carry and finished it with a slim trim, so more of what you see is fire and your hardwood or tile meets the opening. The flame and the ember bed take their colors independently, over driftwood logs and an acrylic crystal ember bed that both come standard.
It plugs into a standard 120-volt outlet, comes with do-it-yourself installation instructions, and can be installed beneath a TV. The fan-forced heater is variable with a thermostat, a timer turns it off when you choose, and the flames run with the heat off.
Possible Downsides
- The manufacturer rates it for supplemental heat only; it warms the space you're in, not the house.
- It faces straight out only; for corner or three-sided installs, look at the Landscape Pro Multi.
- The flame is LED-lit, not drawn on a screen; for a screen-drawn fire in a slim wall, look at the Orion Slim.
If you want a linear fire without a remodel—recessed into an ordinary wall or hung on it, and plugged in—the 50-inch Spectrum Slimline is the right decision. The room gets a fire you turn on for ten minutes or the whole evening.
There are no add-on kits for this size; flame color, ember bed color, heat, and timer are all set from the remote or the touch panel.

Can you get an instant online estimate for the Modern Flames 50" Spectrum Slimline Wall Mount/Recessed Fireplace?

What's included in the online estimate?
The unit with the options you selected, a real vent kit matched to your venting, and the installation labor for a typical setup. Your free one-to-two-hour in-home visit confirms every detail before anything is ordered.
Who pulls the permit?
We do, on every job, in every jurisdiction we serve—and we meet the inspector. It's built into the process, not an upsell.
Can you see the Modern Flames 50" Spectrum Slimline Wall Mount/Recessed Fireplace in a photo of your own room?
Yes. The Visualizer tab on this page renders the Modern Flames 50" Spectrum Slimline Wall Mount/Recessed Fireplace into a straight-on photo of your wall, scaled to the room, so you see it in your space before you price a thing. Phone photos are fine. It's a faithful preview, not an architectural drawing; sizing, venting, and trim get confirmed at the free in-home visit.
Is the online estimate real, or a rough guess?
Real, and honest about what it is: a price for the Modern Flames 50" Spectrum Slimline Wall Mount/Recessed Fireplace as configured, a fitting vent kit, and professional installation labor, built from real Seattle installs. It is not binding. The free one-to-two-hour in-home visit checks your actual house before the price is final, and nothing is ordered until then.
Do you install and service the Modern Flames 50" Spectrum Slimline Wall Mount/Recessed Fireplace yourselves?
Yes, both. Our own in-house installers set the Modern Flames 50" Spectrum Slimline Wall Mount/Recessed Fireplace, run the venting and the gas, pull the permit, and light the first fire before leaving. Afterward the service desk looks after every unit that came from Sutter, with factory-trained technicians and a real date when you call.
