Modern Flames Orion Multi 3-Sided Built-In/Wall-Mounted Electric Fireplace - V2 / 120" Wide

The Orion Multi Raises the Bar for Realistic Electric Fireplaces

The Modern Flames Orion Multi is a built-in or wall-mounted electric fireplace designed for shoppers who want a more realistic flame presentation than a standard electric fireplace can offer. With HELIOVISION™ Flame Technology, multi-sided viewing, customizable flame styles, and flexible installation options, it is a strong fit for modern living rooms, feature walls, media walls, and other spaces where the fireplace is meant to be a focal point.

The Orion Multi is especially well suited for homeowners, designers, and builders looking for a 3-sided electric fireplace with a more immersive viewing experience. Its multi-dimensional flame presentation is designed to maintain visual consistency from different angles, making it a compelling option for projects where the fireplace will be seen from more than one side.

Who Is the Orion Multi Best For?

The Modern Flames Orion Multi is best for shoppers who want a premium electric fireplace with a more realistic flame presentation and flexible installation options. It is a strong fit for:

• Homeowners creating a modern feature wall or media wall
• Shoppers looking for a 3-sided, 2-sided, or single-sided electric fireplace design
• Buyers who want a wall-mounted or built-in electric fireplace with app control
• Projects where flame realism and visual impact matter more than choosing a basic budget model
• Designers and builders specifying a modern electric fireplace for living rooms, great rooms, and open-concept spaces

If you prefer a simpler front-facing installation, you may also want to compare it to the Orion Slim.

Looking for an electric fireplace with extremely realistic flames?

You may feel torn between the convenience of a ventless electric fireplace and the visual appeal of a real fire, but the Orion Multi is designed to bring those two goals closer together. Its 3-sided view and multi-dimensional virtual flames create a more lifelike presentation than traditional flat flame effects, making it a great choice for shoppers prioritizing realism.

HELIOVISION™ Flame Technology helps the flames appear more consistent from multiple viewing angles, unlike standard LED flame effects. For shoppers comparing premium electric fireplaces, this is one of the Orion Multi’s biggest differentiators.

Flame Styles and Customization

The Orion Multi gives you multiple ways to tailor the look of the fire to your space and style. It features 3 flame styles: Hybrid for strong, vibrant flames, Wood for a wood-burning look with sparks, and Gas for a cleaner gas-burner appearance.

With 9 flame color options and multicolor ember bed lighting, the Orion Multi is a strong fit for buyers who want both realism and design flexibility. Whether you are creating a cozy atmosphere or a more modern visual effect, the flame presentation can be adjusted to better match the room.

Flexible Installation Options

One of the Orion Multi’s biggest advantages is its installation flexibility. It can be configured as a 3-sided bay-style fireplace, a 2-sided corner fireplace, or a single-sided electric fireplace depending on how the sides are finished.

Enjoy a stunning bay view with all sides exposed, or leave one side open for a 2-sided installation. If you prefer a more traditional front-facing appearance, cover both sides for a single-sided look similar to the Orion Slim.

For an easier wall-mounted installation without a full remodel, pair it with the Orion Multi Floating Mantels. This is a great option for shoppers who want the Orion Multi’s larger visual impact in a more finished, furniture-style presentation.

Heat and Convenient Controls

The Orion Multi is built for both ambiance and supplemental heat. It offers powerful heat output for an electric fireplace and includes controls designed for everyday convenience. Enjoy ambient crackling sounds, thermostat control, and flexible operation through touch controls, the included remote control, or Wi-Fi controls through the Modern Flames app.

This makes the Orion Multi a strong choice for buyers who want a premium electric fireplace that combines realistic flames, flexible installation, customizable visuals, and easy control in one unit.

Orion V1 vs. Orion V2: What Changed?

Version 1 and Version 2 of the Modern Flames Orion Multi share the same core platform, including HELIOVISION™ flame technology, multi-sided viewing, and strong heating performance. Version 2 is not a full redesign, but a meaningful upgrade focused on realism, customization, and overall user experience.

The biggest improvements are in flame presentation and display quality. V2 features sharper contrast, deeper blacks, and adaptive brightness for better visibility in both daytime and evening settings, creating a more lifelike and dimensional flame effect.

Version 2 also adds the new Modern Flames+ app with enhanced controls and over-the-air flame updates, allowing users to access new flame styles after installation. V1 can still get flame updates, but it requires shipping a new USB unit.

To complete the experience, V1 and V2 include crackling fire sounds, but V2 has an enhanced sound and Bluetooth streaming, along with upgraded TruWood™ lit logs and an active ember bed for a more realistic fireplace appearance.

Orion Multi V2 is outdoor rated with a more efficient heater - perfect for upgrading a covered patio.

Overall, Version 1 delivers the signature Orion experience, while Version 2 builds on it with better, even more realistic flame display performance, smarter controls, upgraded sound, and enhanced realism.
