Why The Napoleon Trivista Primis 50 Is Worth The Investment
This isn't just an electric fireplace, it's built with the same true three-sided viewing and highest heat output in its category as the larger Trivista Primis 60, giving homeowners with smaller rooms or tighter peninsulas the full multi-side experience without an oversized footprint.
The Trivista Primis 50 specifically addresses the needs of homeowners with smaller open floor plans, room dividers, or peninsula-style layouts who want a fireplace visible from multiple angles in a size that fits a more compact space.
Full Trivista Performance In A Smaller Footprint. When hardwired for 240V, the Trivista Primis 50 outputs the same robust 9,000 BTU and 2,800 Watts as its larger sibling, capable of quickly heating rooms up to 800 sq. ft., all while remaining visible from three sides, or reconfigured to two-sided or single-sided viewing using the included end panels.
Built For A Fully Customizable Display
Choose from the included crystal cube ember bed or add the realistic Northern Woods log set for added visual impact
Select from 7 flame colors and 6 ember bed colors, use the cycle setting, or let the display fade in and fade out
LED top lights double as luxurious ambiance lighting or a practical night light for movie nights
Engineered For Effortless, Unobtrusive Control
The touch control panel illuminates when you need it and dims to hide when not in use, keeping the fireplace's look clean while relaxing
The included remote offers full control without needing to approach the unit
The motion proximity sensor activates the touch panel automatically as you approach
Real Savings
The ability to reconfigure between one, two, or three-sided viewing avoids the cost of purchasing a different fireplace if your layout changes
The luminous flames can operate with or without heat, letting you enjoy the fireplace year-round without unwanted warmth in summer
A smaller footprint than the 60" model may reduce framing and installation costs in tighter spaces
Free shipping and no sales tax through Summit Forge Supply keeps the total cost down compared to buying elsewhere and paying tax and freight separately
The Bottom Line Homeowners with smaller rooms or tighter peninsulas who want a fireplace visible from multiple angles can't get that flexibility from a standard single-sided unit sized for larger spaces. The Napoleon Trivista Primis 50 is built with reconfigurable three-sided viewing, the highest heat output in its category, and a fully customizable flame and lighting display, so it becomes a true architectural feature at a size that fits smaller rooms. For anyone designing a compact space where the fireplace still needs to work from more than one angle, this is the unit built to deliver it.
