and now you have one very simple but unique fireplace. You almost can't see the remote because of the glass color. The remote was to go inside the left cabinet but the plumber forgot to show up, oh well. But it's done and everyone is happy.
The round pan below is a propane pan with electronic ignition. This is a 36" aluminum pan with a 2" lip all around
The two pans below are stainless steel and are propane fueled with 415,000 btu electronic ignitions each.
The electronic ignitions that were used in the Renaissance Hotel in Arizona were our MVKEI HC-5 units for natural gas. We used flame rod sensors on these torches.
13 of these were installed around the hotel
We use 12" stainless steel rings on the torches.
The fire pit below is in Glendale,
Arizona at the Renaissance Hotel. We installed an electronic ignition
with a 30" stainless steel ring. The glass use was a clear base with starfire
on top and topped with 42 lbs of apricot topper. These pictures were
taken with the edges still exposed which were covered by a layer of starfire.
The two boxes below are our IPI battery operated electronic ignitions which are 100,000 btu
rated. The exterior boxes are for protection from the weather and keep
the unit and batteries safe and dry. These are typically installed
under the glass in a fire pit our doors under the glass or in a sub
panel just like our 110 volt electronic 415,000 btu units.
On the left you can see the gas lines, one in and one out along with a 60" IPI lead (Intermittent Pilot Ignition). This allows the ignition system to be 60" away from the flames if required.
The
stainless steel pan burner below has a 24" stainless steel star burner
installed and it is connected to our 110 volt electronic ignition. This
is a propane burner.
We then covered it with our starfire to test for soot and as you can see, a clean burn.
The pan below is a stainless steel pan with a 415,000 btu electronic ignition installed under the pan. It's what the customer wanted. It's like hooking your car up the the shuttle for more power. This pan was installed in Nipomo/ Pismo Beach California, Shea Homes and we get up there we will take finished pictures as we installed 6 other fireplace which we will take pictures of as well.
The front stainless skirt hide the control box which is 4" tall.
The fire
pit below was another failed attempt from a company called Fire By
Design in Nevada. They helped these customers design a propane fire pit
with an electronic ignition (fair at best) and with the lack of
knowledge about propane here is the failed attempt. The ring was to
placed above the glass according to the manufacture (wrong!). There was
no air mixer/ venturi let alone calibrating for proper air mixture to
insure a clean burn. The company would not even return any calls to the
customer and we repaired the system and made it work properly. This
home was on the beach in South Florida.
Several
thing went wrong here, wrong filler (lava was too large), Bad cage
design over the pilot light/ ignition, they buried the ignition system
under the ring and glass, the ring was left on the surface, no air
mixer, no customer support, the ring that was supplied was a steel ring
for outdoors, wrong! This should of been a stainless steel ring and a
strong recommendation for a cover because it was at the beach! We
would of also given the option of a #304 stainless steel marine grade
ring. We also manufacture our our rings as well.
The twin ribbon burners below are 50" long each and
powered be an electronic ignition. The will be installed in Santa
Barbara California.As soon as the installation is complete we will post
the finished pictures of the burners. They will be installed one in
front of the other to create two walls of fire.
These
we mock up shots with very low pressure in the shop and when they get
installed you will be able to see the potential of these burners.
The ignition system that was powering these burners is a 110 volt 415,000 btu system. The control of the flame height can only be done manually as electronic control is not available as of yet for this unit.
