Dimplex Revillusion 36" Built-In Electric Firebox (next-gen REV) - Model REV36
Overview
The Dimplex 36" Revillusion (REV36) gives you the shape and presence of a traditional fireplace without a chimney, a gas line or a permit. The firebox measures 37-1/8 x 26-1/2 x 12-1/8 in and sets into a framed opening of 36-5/8 x 26-1/4 x 12-1/2 in. Nothing is vented.
Choose your backer
This is the decision that changes the room. The backer is the panel you see behind the logs — all four cost the same, and nothing else about the fireplace changes with it.
- Black — a solid black backer that lets the flame dominate — the most contemporary of the four.
- Herringbone — a laid herringbone brick pattern; the most traditional look in the range.
- Neutral Brick — soft brick that reads as original masonry. Worth knowing: it reads gray in the room — Dimplex's own owner's manual calls this finish "Grey Brick".
- Weathered Concrete — muted gray concrete for a minimal, modern surround.
What Dimplex builds into it
- Revillusion flame effect with Optiflame technology, 4 flame speeds, and flame base color adjustable from red to orange.
- Realogs — logs handcrafted from real wood, with LEDs inside them so they glow the way embers do rather than being lit from below.
- A translucent acrylic reflective panel that kills reflections and lets flames appear from within the logs.
- A 270-degree firebox surround.
- Steel sheathed heater, rated to 1,000 sq. ft. — 1300 / 1975 / 2575 W / 4436 / 6739 / 8786 BTU at 120 / 208 / 240 V.
- Hardwire (a 120 V plug kit is included in the box). A dedicated, properly fused 15 A circuit is recommended.
- Flame-only mode draws just 40 W, so it runs all year. There is also a heater-only mode and Eco Boost.
- Mood-maker remote, hidden-touch controls, LED display, timer and an ambient light sensor.
- In the box: firebox, front glass, glass trim, tumbled glass embers, plug kit, remote and the manual.
Before you frame
Rough opening 36-5/8 x 26-1/4 x 12-1/2 in. For a corner installation allow front 60 in, left 42-1/2 in, right 42-1/2 in. These come from the Dimplex technical specification for this exact size — open it under Manufacturer Documents and build to that drawing, not to the product dimensions.
Listed to UL 2021 / CSA C22.2 No. 46 (UL file E71416). Warranty: 2 years on the firebox, 1 year on surrounds and trims.
Free freight shipping. Send us your opening dimensions and we will check the framing before you order.
