Touchstone Sideline Elite 60-Inch Electric Fireplace

Realistic Electric Fireplace Flame

The Sideline Elite is designed to provide the visual appeal of a traditional fire without wood, smoke, ash, or the need for a chimney or gas line. Its large flame display creates a relaxing focal point while giving you control over the appearance of the fire.

Choose from six flame colors, adjust the flame intensity and speed, and customize the appearance of the media bed to create the look that best fits your room.

The fireplace includes:

• 6 flame color options
• 10 media bed color options
• 5 flame and media brightness settings
• 3 flame speed settings
• Realistic flame display
• Flame-only operation

Customizable Flame and Media Bed Colors

One of the standout features of the Touchstone Sideline Elite is its ability to customize both the flame and ember bed lighting.

With multiple flame and media bed colors available, you can create everything from a traditional warm-fire appearance to a more contemporary look. The fireplace provides 60 possible color combinations, giving you plenty of flexibility when designing the atmosphere of your space.

Built-In Electric Heat

The Sideline Elite isn’t just for looks. Its integrated heater provides supplemental warmth for rooms up to approximately 400 square feet.

Two heat settings allow you to choose between lower and higher heat output, while the built-in thermostat provides additional temperature control.

Heating Features

• 750W low heat setting
• 1,500W high heat setting
• Up to 5,118 BTUs
• Built-in thermostat
• Adjustable temperature from 68–88°F
• Heat can operate independently from the flame
• Supplemental heat for rooms up to 400 sq. ft.
• Up to 8-hour timer

The heater is designed as a supplemental heat source rather than a replacement for your home’s primary heating system.

WiFi Smart Electric Fireplace

The Touchstone Sideline Elite WiFi adds convenient smart-home functionality to a traditional electric fireplace.

Connect the fireplace to your smartphone and control key functions without needing to be in front of the unit. The Sideline Elite is also compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Home, allowing you to use voice commands to turn the fireplace on or off.

Smart features make the Sideline Elite particularly well suited to modern homes and connected living spaces.

Recessed Electric Fireplace Installation

The Touchstone Sideline Elite 60 is primarily designed as a recessed electric fireplace, allowing it to be installed into a framed wall for a clean, built-in appearance.

Its relatively shallow 5 1/2-inch depth makes it a practical option for many interior installations.

The fireplace can be:

• Recessed into a wall
• Plugged into a standard 120V outlet
• Hardwired
• Installed as part of a custom fireplace wall or media feature

When installing near a wall-mounted television, Touchstone recommends positioning the fireplace at least 8 inches below the bottom of the TV because of the heater.

Enjoy the Fireplace Without the Heat

One of the biggest advantages of an electric fireplace is year-round flexibility. The Sideline Elite allows you to operate the flame display without turning on the heater.

Enjoy the realistic flame effect on a cool summer evening, use the heater during colder weather, or turn on both features when you want additional warmth.

No wood. No ash. No smoke. No gas line. Just the ambiance of a fireplace at the touch of a button.

Included Media

The Sideline Elite 60 includes a combination of decorative media so you can customize the appearance of the fireplace.

Included:

• Log set
• Driftwood
• Decorative crystals

Arrange the included media to create a traditional or contemporary appearance that complements your interior design.
