About this model
Overview
The Allusion Slim is built around an unusually thin body, about four inches deep, so it can be framed flush into a 2x4 or 2x6 wall instead of needing a deep build-out. It is offered in 40, 50, 60 and 72 inch widths, each ordered as its own model.
LED flame effects run in several colours over a glowing ember bed with adjustable brightness, and the fire is supplied with crystal media and a log set. The built-in heater is rated up to 5,000 BTU for supplemental warmth, and flame-only operation lets the fire run year round. It is worked from the touch controls or a remote, and because it is electric there is no flue, gas line or soot.
Is this right for your home?
An apartment, media wall or bedroom where wall depth is limited and a flue or gas line is not practical.
Check before ordering
- Which of the four widths (40", 50", 60", 72") the wall can take, since each is a separate model.
- Whether it is being recessed into the stud wall or wall-mounted with the optional kit.
- The electrical requirements published for the chosen model, confirmed with an electrician before the wall is closed up.
Worth knowing
- Heat output is up to 5,000 BTU, which is supplemental rather than a room's main heat source.
- Crystal media and a log set come with the fire; the mounting kit is an optional extra.

Installation
The thin body is the point of this model: it is framed into a standard stud wall rather than a built-out chase, so the finish material and the electrical supply are the main planning items.
Brown Chimney can look at the wall build-up, the intended finish and the power supply, and confirm what the chosen width needs before the wall is closed up.
Service availability depends on your location.
What to check before installation
What an assessment of this model would cover:
- Framed opening width, height and depth against the published dimensions for the chosen width.
- Wall construction, and whether the fire is recessed or mounted with the optional kit.
- Electrical supply and circuit capacity for the model, before the wall is closed up.

Frequently asked questions
How deep does the wall need to be?
The body is around four inches deep, which is what lets it be framed flush into a 2x4 or 2x6 wall. Check the published dimensions for the width you choose before framing.
What comes with the fireplace?
Crystal media and a log set are supplied with the unit. The wall-mounting kit is optional and is only needed if the fire is not being recessed.
Which widths are available?
Four: 40, 50, 60 and 72 inches. Each width is a separate model, so the size is settled before the surround is built.
