Stunning Design, Innovative Technology, and Unmatched Flexibility

The Dimplex IgniteXL Bold Built-In 88-inch Linear Electric Fireplace is a masterpiece of contemporary design, offering both versatility and industry-exclusive display options that transform any space into a modern, inviting environment. With its impressive 88-inch width, this fireplace commands attention, making it a perfect focal point for living rooms, bedrooms, offices, or commercial spaces. Designed for flexible installations, the IgniteXL Bold can be configured as a front-facing, right or left corner, or bay-style fireplace, giving you the freedom to create a custom look that suits your space. For an even more dramatic statement, multiple units can be connected together, amplifying the effect of the flames and creating a cohesive, stunning visual feature.

The Multi-Fire XD™ flame technology ensures that the flames are not only vivid but also incredibly lifelike, delivering a realistic flame effect that is enhanced by a modern media bed of acrylic crystals and driftwood. The flames flicker and dance, creating an atmosphere of warmth and comfort, while the distinctive mirror effect adds depth to the firebox, making the fire seem even more dynamic. You can further personalize the look with media accent colors and top lighting, selecting from a range of preset colors or cycling through the Prism mode to find the perfect hue for your mood or décor.

Beyond its visual appeal, the Dimplex IgniteXL Bold is a powerful and energy-efficient heater, capable of warming spaces up to 1,000 square feet. The Comfort$aver™ heating system uses 11% less energy than traditional heaters, while the Eco mode and Heat Boost function give you even more control over your room’s climate. Whether you need fast heating or a consistent, energy-saving temperature, this fireplace has you covered. For year-round enjoyment, you can deactivate the heater and simply enjoy the ambiance of the flames.

Key Features:

  • Multi-Fire XD™ Flame Effect: The Multi-Fire XD™ technology creates brighter, more lifelike flames that mimic the appearance of real fire, whether viewed during the day or night. The flames appear to rise and flicker over the modern media bed, creating an immersive fire experience.
  • Modern Media Bed: The stylish media bed includes small and large acrylic crystals combined with natural-looking driftwood, giving the fireplace a contemporary look that complements any décor. The media bed adds texture and depth, further enhancing the realism of the flames.

This concealed heater ensures that your room remains comfortable and cozy while saving on energy costs.
  • Air Circulation Mode: Keep your space feeling fresh and comfortable with the air circulation mode, which moves room air around even when the heating function is not in use.
  • Eco/Heat Boost Modes: The Eco mode reduces the wattage to maintain a comfortable temperature with minimal energy consumption, while the Heat Boost function delivers maximum heat output for up to 20 minutes, ensuring your room is quickly warmed when needed.
  • Heat Management: Enjoy the ambiance of the fireplace year-round by deactivating the heater via the controls or disconnecting the heater during installation for spaces where heat is not required. This feature allows you to use the flame effects without heat, making it perfect for any season.
  • Media Accent Color/Top Light: Customize the interior of the fireplace with media accent colors and top lighting. Choose from a variety of preset colors or use the Prism mode to cycle through different hues, freezing on the color that best suits your room or occasion.
  • Ambient Light Sensor: The ambient light sensor automatically adjusts the brightness of the firebox depending on the room’s lighting, ensuring that the flames look stunning whether it’s bright daylight or a dim evening.
  • Smart Self-Diagnostics: The integrated smart self-diagnostics system provides feedback on the fireplace’s performance and maintenance needs, ensuring that it runs smoothly and efficiently.
  • Edgeless Design: The edgeless design of the IgniteXL Bold allows it to be installed flush with stone, brick, tile, or other solid finish materials, creating a clean, seamless look. A trim kit is included for drywall and tile surfaces, offering even more flexibility in installation.

  • Built-In Timer: Set the built-in timer to automatically shut off the fireplace after a preset time, up to 8 hours, providing convenience and peace of mind.
  • Seamless Installation: The low-profile design allows for full recess installation into 2″ x 6″ wall construction or 2″ x 4″ framing with the optional trim kit. The unit can be hardwired using 120V or 240V, giving you flexibility in both installation and heating power.
  • Mood-Maker Remote: The included multi-function remote control allows you to adjust the flame color, intensity, and heat settings from the comfort of your seat, letting you create the perfect atmosphere at the touch of a button.
  • Cool-Touch Glass: Safety is paramount with the IgniteXL Bold. The cool-touch glass ensures that the surface remains safe to the touch, even when the heater is on, making it ideal for homes with children, pets, or commercial spaces.
