Wilderness Front Facing 77H Gas Fireplace

The Wall-Wide Log Fire A driftwood fire the length of the wall—no logs to haul, no ash to sweep. Who it’s for Most linear gas fireplaces give you the scale but not the fire—a ribbon of flame over glass or stones, and from across the room you can tell it’s a gas appliance. A wood fire looks right, but nobody builds one six and a half feet wide. You need a fire that reads as wood at the scale of the wall. If the fireplace is meant to be the first thing people notice in the room, the Ortal Wilderness Front Facing 77H is the one: a 77½”-wide fire burning through a full set of long driftwood logs, all of it run from a remote. Quick facts Viewing area: 77½” wide, with standard-height (21⅝”) or tall (29½”) glass Fuel: natural gas or propane Controls: remote with thermostat; app and wall switch control optional Fan: none What makes it special Ortal built the Wilderness burner to give a gas fire the look and feel of a real hearth fire, and at this width it becomes a full scene: flames rising through and around a set of long driftwood logs that run the length of the firebox. From the couch, the fire is the point— not the appliance around it . You also choose how the fire meets the room. The standard front uses a protective screen so fine it’s almost invisible , and the double glass front keeps the outer pane cooler with small, silent fans moving air between the two layers. Either way, set the remote to the temperature you want and the fireplace holds the room there on its own, adjusting the flame as it goes. Possible downsides Needs household power to run, so it won’t operate during a power outage. Long driftwood is the only log style at this width; the chopped wood and dark brown sets are offered on smaller Wilderness models. The tall-glass version comes only with the double glass front; the protective screen is offered on the standard-height glass only. If you want a fire that reads as wood at the scale of the wall, the Wilderness 77H is the right decision. The wall becomes the fire, and the room it’s in becomes the room the house lives in. The 77H comes with a protective screen or double glass front, in standard or tall glass heights, with a long driftwood log set in natural gas or propane.
