  • Is your fireplace WiFi Compatible? Look for the “WiFi” image on your control panel. If you see the logo you are ready to go.

Just a reminder, connecting to the Touchstone Fireplace App or using Amazon Alexa or Google Play is not required for standard operation. Touchstone included remote will handle all the functions of the fireplace.

Have questions about compatibility? Scroll down for a list of compatible fireplaces.

Start here: Get the Touchstone Fireplace App

Set Up the Touchstone Fireplace App

Once you have downloaded the app to your mobile device, open the Touchstone Fireplace App, tap “Sign in” to register an account, and then sign in. (The app can be used as a “guest”, but you may miss out on some support functionality). Follow the app instructions to set up, register an account and sign in to the app.

Notes:

  • Your phone will request permission for the “Touchstone Fireplace” to find and connect to devices on your network.
  • The Touchstone Fireplace App will also request to access Bluetooth devices.
  • This enables simple product pairing through the app’s Bluetooth pairing.
  • The Touchstone Fireplace App will be not fully functional without these permissions.

Add Your Touchstone® Smart Electric Fireplace to the Touchstone Fireplace App 

For Fireplaces purchased AFTER November 2022:

  • After signing in or creating an account, add your device using the simple Bluetooth pairing. The Bluetooth pairing easily finds your powered-on fireplace.

For Fireplaces purchased BEFORE November 2022:

  • Your fireplace doesn’t have Bluetooth connectivity, so you’ll need to pair your fireplace by selecting the “+” from the upper corner of your “All Devices” window. Here, you will be directed to the “Add Device” page, where you will select the Touchstone logo.
  • This will walk you through resetting your fireplace for pairing. In the upper corner select “Bluetooth” and then change your option to “EZ Mode”. Follow the instructions for walking through pairing in EZ mode. You’ll need to be ready with your WiFi login and password.

It works like it should. It's not very realistic but still a good ambience.

Great Product!

My wife and I are very pleased with this product. We spent a lot of time looking for fireplaces and just couldnt find one we liked enough that wasn't gas. I happened to run across this one while searching for ideas on building a bumpout in our wall and sure am glad I did. Shipping was very quick and the follow up from customer service was great.

It’s not a real fire so...

Easy to install. The flames are realistic. The only thing I am uneasy about is there is a slight humming/rattling when the heater is on ? Also the heater is not that powerful.

US Fireplace Store Touchstone Sideline 100 Recessed Electric Fireplace Review

  • Researched and ordered my fireplace from US FIreplace Store. Pricing was a fair value however, the customer service was EXCELLENT! I had an issue with the direct vent venting. I called US Fireplace and the correct items were sent out the next day AND Janessa stayed on top of my return authorization and sent me the permissions and documents I needed to return the incorrect item and no cost to me, including return shipping. Overall, I am a very satisfied customer and my fireplace looks and operates flawlessly. I am glad that I selected US FIreplace to source my direct vent fireplace. Thank you for the great service.

  • I had placed an order, through Lowe's Home Improvement, for an Electric Firebox: Revillusion RBF42. Ordered 1st part of January. Was told I would have it in 3 weeks. When checking to see is it came in, was told it was delayed to 3/15. Was then told is was delayed until 4/25. Waited until 4/27 to check on it. Was then told it was now delayed until August. This firebox was going in a new Sun Room addition. I could not get my final inspection until the Firebox was installed. I went on line and googled for this same product. US Fireplace Store web site was given to me. This was on a Saturday. I call and reached a very nice man. Explain what I was look for. He checked and told me they had 30 of them in stock. I almost fell out of my chair. I clarified with him the product I was wanting. I ask how soon could I get it. He told me it would ship today. Again, was amazed. It arrived on the following Monday. What a pleasure and a relief working with US Fireplace Store and their employees. Exceed my expectations.

  • Great prices, quick delivery and fast hassle free services on the issue I encountered. I had purchased an electric fireplace unit that would not fit into the existing fireplace space. With one email I was able to get the wrong fireplace refunded and picked up at my home at no extra cost and the new one I purchased and delivered free of charge. Great company.
