Oh! To clarify: the flames are not actually _on_ the units themselves, but are being rendered (from the burning building) on top of the units?

Thank you for your reply.

I did some testing and I found out that it only happens with heros.  
For non-hero units it works just fine.  
(it has nothing to do with the elevation btw, I removed the elevation before I created the rec)
