Overview

Modern Flames built the Orion Multi as a three-sided electric firebox that installs into a wall, so the flames show from the front and both ends. A forced air heater blows warmth into the room, and the flame display, ember bed and downlighting run from the remote or a phone app over WiFi.

Viewing from three sides is the reason to choose it: a peninsula wall or room divider shows the flames from more than one seat. Flame pattern, color, speed and ember lighting are all adjustable, and the heater can supplement a large open room. Installation is a built-in job, and the listing leaves out wattage, so an electrician should confirm the circuit.

Who it's for

Homeowners framing a new media wall or peninsula get a long firebox visible from the sides as well as the front. Renters and anyone without a place to build in the unit should look at freestanding mantel models instead.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Flames visible from front and both ends
  • Three flame patterns and six flame colors
  • WiFi app control alongside the remote
  • Multi-color ember bed and downlighting
Cons
  • Requires built-in installation work
  • Wattage and voltage not listed
  • Warranty term only described as limited
  • App features depend on home WiFi

Performance notes

Heat comes from a forced air element that recirculates warmed room air, so warmth spreads faster where air moves freely through the space. The flame look depends on the HELIOVISION display settings: pattern, color and speed change the effect, and the ember bed and downlighting add depth. Room insulation decides whether the heater serves as main or supplemental heat.

Frequently asked questions

Can I adjust the flame display on the Modern Flames Orion Multi after installation?

Yes. Flame pattern, color and speed are adjustable, along with a multi-color ember bed and downlighting, from the included remote or the app over WiFi. Running the flames with the heater off is not described in the listing.

Is the Modern Flames OR60-MULTI a freestanding fireplace?

No. It is a built-in unit meant to be installed into a wall or surround. It ships with a remote and wall-mounting hardware, and no mantel or stand is listed.

What electrical circuit does the Orion Multi need?

The listing gives a 5,000 BTU heater but no wattage or voltage. Confirm the circuit with the manufacturer's install guide before framing the opening.

What does three-sided mean on the Orion Multi?

The glass viewing area covers the front and both ends, so the flames show from the sides as well as straight on. That suits peninsula walls and room dividers.
