Video Transcript for Furrion RV Fireplaces - Recessed Mount Fireplace - FF34SW15ABL Review

Speaker 1: Today we're taking a look at a Furrion 34 Inch Electric Fireplace. This electric fireplace has this simulated wood and provides additional heat in your RV. It features intuitive heat management system, so it's able to switch power off automatically when the unit becomes overheated. It also has a close proximity sensor, which will switch power off automatically when the presence of nearby objects is detected. The close proximity cutoff range is six inches or less. It also features slide out safety technology, which is a really cool feature.

I haven't seen that before on a fireplace system. If you're installing this unit in an RV slide out wall, it is recommended that you connect the slide out safety cutoff wires to the slide out 12 volt DC activation system. This will prevent operation when the slide out is in, so when it's in travel mode or storage mode it will prevent operation of the unit, so it basically cuts off power.Overall, really nice design. It's a great looking unit. We have the standard wall plug here on the back side of the unit with a long power cord on it.

We've got our specifications right here. The rating is 120 volt 60 hertz. Total input is 1500 watts. It is designed for indoor use only. Here's that connection point for that switch for the RV slide out.

It goes right in there and then wires into your system. Also included is a remote control and mounting hardware.It does feature the simulated wood with four level LED flame technology. This fireplace is great for heating up an area of about up to 500 square feet. Again, it has those smart technologies built into it so it ensures that the fireplace works whenever you want it to. It features a technology called climate smart, which keeps the fireplace running in even the most extreme climates, and vibration smart technology, which helps the fireplace resist vibration.We're going to go ahead and hook it up to power.

That way you can see what it looks like, and we will be able to go through a lot of the different settings that the unit has to offer. To make it easier to see I'm going to turn off the overhead lights. Now right now it's just in an off mode. Our buttons are located right here, so I'll hit the on button. It kicks on, has a really nice soft glow to it. Then right next to that we have our timer button and we can set it. You can see it's flashing right here. It's flashing 30 minutes right now. Then it goes to one hour, two hour, three hour, four hour, five hour, and then off. So 30 minutes to five hours is the timer. Then we have a little flame button right here. That's level four, so that's going to be the most intense, level three, level two, level one, and then back to level four.Then we have our thermostat. We have a high setting on our blower, and we have a low setting on our blower. So you have high, low and off. If you hold down for five seconds, it switches over to numbers, which will allow you to set the desired temperature, so 65 degrees, 70 degrees, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, and then back to 65. It's nice. Now the front is tempered glass. It's easy to clean. The glass can be removed. All you have to do is grab on the sides, lift up, and there's three prongs that are holding it in place. Lift up and then pull back, and that's all there is to it. Then you can clean that glass as needed.Very sleek unit. Again, adjustable thermostat. Remote control included. This is a recess mount installation in the wall of your RV, so an installation cut out is required. Here in a moment I'll go over those cut out measurements for you, but overall this unit from edge to edge right here measures 33 7/8 of an inch, top to bottom is 17 3/4 inches tall, and then the overall depth is 6 1/4 inches deep. Now here in the installation instructions I do want to go over, it has a couple different cut out options for you. This setting right here is a wall mount installation, flush mounted design. The reason why I want to show you this is because in here, and it's really hard to see, but basically you have two depth measurements and two width measurements that you need to cut. I'm trying to mention these for you real quick. For the wall mount installation flush mount, this is the 34 inch series fireplace, we need a width of 33 3/16 with a height of 17 13/16. Then C is that secondary width measurement of 30 9/16 of an inch, D is a depth measurement of 2 inches, and then E is another depth measurement of 7 3/16 of an inch.now if you want to do the wall mount installation with the half flush mount design, then for the 34 inch series fireplace you need a width measurement of 30 9/16, and then you need a height measurement of 16 1/4, and then you need a depth of 5 inches. If you paid attention when I spun this around earlier, you'll notice that it has kind of like a step design to it, which is where those two depth measurements come from. This would be a width measurement here, and this would be a width measurement here. This would be a depth measurement, and then this little notch would be a depth measurement. But all that's indicated in the instructions. It's easy to follow, shows exactly how to cut. It also comes with a wiring guide for that slide out technology that this unit features.That's going to do it for today's look at the Furrion 34 Inch Electric Fireplace.
