Greystone 26" Electric Fireplace as a Replacement Fireplace for 2017 Forest River Arctic Wolf Fifth

Question:

Looking to use this as a replacement for the broken blt999a that is in our Genesis Supreme. The cut out specs of ours is 27 1/4 x 23 x 7 1/2 compared to the 26 1/4 x 20 1/2 x 5 3/8 of the 324-000068. I am not concerned about the height because ours sits so low to the ground in the bedroom that no one will notice the 2 1/2 difference and width is no problem. I am wondering about the length difference of 1 inch. Can you tell me the width of the mounting flange? I am thinking that if it is larger than the one on our current model we can make it work. The length of our current model if the flange length is included is 29.Can you help? Do you think this model will work? The screen is the exact same size as our current one so I am hoping it will work. My husband is handy and can do modifications if necessary.

The Greystone 26" Electric Fireplace with Crystals, # 324-000068 has overall dimensions of 28-3/8" wide x 21-3/8" tall x 5 1-2" deep. From the measurements you provided, this should be a good fit as a replacement for you and require nothing more than some trim pieces to dress out the appearance once installed.
