Home Installation of a Propane Fireplace
The fireplace below is a propane burner, self installation with the 2" method, Starfire and Gold on top
Below is the old burner with a smaller flame pattern which we will change to a double burner in our tray propane pan burner
A little bit of cleaning with a wire brush and 1200 degree paint
We filled the bottom with pea gravel and the covered it with sand
Then we installed the propane burner and filler it with pea gravel to the top of the burners.
You can see the pilot light and thermo-coupler exposed
So there it is. A clean burning propane burner, 2" method, no soot, no smells, no carbon monoxide and it puts out a tremendous amount of heat.
We sell the 2" method because it works and if anyone tries to tell you different, they need your money more than you do. We are the only company building propane burners for glass that don't soot or smell!
Aluminum Burner Pan
The pan below is a brushed aluminum pan with sculpted legs. This pan is for propane and now we offer a simple adapter to convert this to remote control from the back side (battery operated).
The glass installed is a Multi Mix for the photo shoot only. The pan is 2" with 3" legs. This pan will be installed in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
The stainless steel tray below has Azurlite in the tray. A very clean and simple look.
Can you honestly say logs look better than this?
Another Ventless Conversion Job.
Below, this is what a ventless burner looks like when you purchase one and we can do with it for you.
All of our sheet metal and welding is now done in house as we acquired a full sheet metal facility.
The ventless burner below is 1 of 3 that were sent to Georgia. The glass that we tested was Multi Mix. We show the burner finished, with the burners exposed, burning and with glass, We will post the pictures of the finished fireplace when the customer send them to us to post. This is a propane ventless burner and these also are made in natural gas as well.
Notice the stainless box tray underneath the upper pan.
If you dream it, design it, think of it, we can build it as we are the innovators in the industry which seem to some how give licence for most to try to copy us and our products and designs. What is important that you know who we are!
The ventless burner below is made of steel and there were actually 4 of these made. We covered the front and sides with 5" skirts. There are being installed in Georgia and as soon as they send pictures we will post them These pictures were taken just after the testing. This is a propane vent less burner and these are available in natural gas as well.
The pictures below are of the same burner as above with Azurlite installed. These 4 ventless burners are being installed in Georgia.
The skirts will hide the the valves and the remote control will be moved to the side of the fireplace. This was a ventless burner the customer sent to us for conversion and they asked for us to add a remote to all 4 ventless burners.
The several pictures below are of a modern coal basket of stainless steel with legs or it can be suspended with chains. This will also be one of our new product lines available in several sizes and finishes.
The burner below has a 300,000 btu controller, 36" triple ring mounted on a 48" aluminum base plate for a fire pit in San Diego. These can be adapted for natural gas or propane with up to a 96" lead pilot light and igniter.
The bowls below are a newer product which we can help you convert your table you have now or build a table around the the bowl we provide you. We can build these for natural gas or propane. Filled with crushed lava rock and ready for what ever you would like to cover it with. We can spin bowls in any size. These come with steel or stainless steel rings, double or single rings. The bowl are very economical and are available up to 24". Anything over 24"will be a custom size, but we can make any size.
These bowls were set up for propane and as you can see the thermo coupler in the picture above.
The propane burner below was made to inset flush to the floor with a remote control underneath the pan. The pan sat 5" below the surface so the glass would appear to be just above the surface. The outer ring was bolted down to keep the glass from falling underneath the burner in the event you ever had to service the burner or remote control. The tower you see is actually for the air mixer to draft fresh air to the propane before it burns.
As you can see we drilled it to look like a ribbon burner. This is what was ordered by the customer.
The two pans below are stainless steel and are propane fueled with 415,000 btu electronic ignitions each.
On this page we will be posting long awaited pictures of pans, burners and baskets along with a few custom burners we are building for our customers.
The pan burner below is for a 2 sided fireplace and this pan is 25" x 45" and controlled from only one side. It is constructed from 16 gauge brushed stainless steel with 3" x 3" x 3" corner legs.
The picture on the bottom left shows you the thermo-coupler and safety pilot light kit which are UL and CSA approved.
This is one side of the two sided fireplace and we will post pictures when the glass is installed of both sides.

The 5 pictures below are renderings of several fireplace burners we were asked to design. The first is a simulation of a pan with glass and a burner like an antique coal basket.
This last one is the same in a smaller version of our pan.

The custom fireplace below has a star burner and a very nice star opening
From the start......
to the finish
Very modern. The fireplace above has Gray, Gray Reflective, Black, and Black Reflective
The fireplace below is in Georgia and we will explain as we move down
The first 2 pictures are of how it used to look, nice logs! I don't think so!
The owners of this fireplace called and told us they couldn't use the fireplace because of the soot (carbon-monoxide) (poison) So we redesigned the fireplace with an air vented pan and our glass (Starfire and Ice) and now a clean burn! The flames are all above the glass and therefore no more carbon-monoxide. Fireplace Shops and dealers won't tell you about this unless you ask, how would you know to ask?
Starfire and Ice on the left
Pan and ring burner on the right.
Really nice fireplace in the middle of the great room surrounded by 3 glass walls.
The pictures below are of John Hanson in Northern California and he did a pan burner we provided and installed it himself.
A Clear base with 3/4" Clear on top
Here is how it all started
The bottom of the pan goes in
The top goes on and you light it
Now the glass
and now the magic
This is how the pan started
There you have it, simple as that. Great job John Hanson!
The pictures below give you an idea on what a pan can do for a larger fireplace.

Our products do not require any certification from the AGA, CSA or UL as it is considered a stand-alone product by these agencies. We are told that we would need a certification if sand and or lava rock would need certification. The agencies are franchise operations and they are privately owned and they are not a government agency. These agencies are hired for mass production testing and AGA, CSA and or UL do not certify custom one of a kind projects. Custom burners need no certification as this only applies to production equipment. Just so you can understand that a certification costs about $15,000.00 and certification was developed for production/ mass production to assure quality. Any parts that would normally need AGA or UL do in fact have these approvals. Parts with function need and should have some sort of approval. The pan burners we sell that do have UL, CSA and or any other listings are produced by other companies. The custom pan burners that we produce are just that, custom. Therefore do not require UL, CSA and or any other agency listings as these are custom. The parts that we use to build these pans are UL, CSA listed as they should be. We would never use any “Third World Country” or any unlisted, untested parts to build any products and or parts to endanger any product performance what so ever.
