What Is Included and What You Will Need

  • Dimplex XHD26G firebox with remote control
  • Optional ember media or log sets when chosen as a variant
  • You will need: a fireplace opening, mantel or cabinet at least the minimum opening size, and a 120 V, 15 A outlet (a dedicated circuit is preferred)

Optional Accessories

Installation Notes

Seal drafts and vents in an existing masonry fireplace with non-fibrous insulation before sliding the firebox in, and do not install it in an opening prone to dampness. Leave air space beneath the unit and at least 1/2 in behind it, and plug it directly into a wall outlet; Dimplex says a dedicated circuit may be needed if the breaker trips when the heater runs.

In New York City, a plug-in electric fireplace needs no gas line, venting or permit, which is why it suits apartments; a hardwired connection or a new circuit should be done by a licensed electrician.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it fit my fireplace opening?

The XHD26G needs an opening at least 24-3/8 in wide, 18-1/2 in high and 8 in deep, per the Dimplex manual.

Can I run the flames without heat?

Yes. The flame effect runs on its own, and the heater can be disabled from the touch panel.

Does it need a dedicated circuit?

It plugs into a standard 120 V, 15 A outlet. Dimplex prefers a dedicated circuit and requires one if the breaker trips with the heater on.

What is the difference between the G and L models?

G models have an acrylic ice ember bed; L models have a molded log set.
