This is our newest product as of today.







 
 
 
 
 

The 3 lower pictures have a clear base with Ice on top. This fireplace also has a new surround frame that we now manufacture also found in the Surrounds page.



The fire pit below has ford blue topped with ice.







The fireplace below has azurlite with ice as a topper.
This was a 2" installation with lava rock and sand as a base.
 
 
 
The pictures below we will be showing how to do a 3" install (all glass), a surround painted black and a triple burner with ice and starfire.

Above and below are a typical of what most fireplaces look like (yuk)1


Above and below with a triple burner, some cleaning and a little bit of paint.



Above and below we installed an aluminum surround painted black. Only starfire is installed for now.



It's hard to see but we did install Ice on top of the starfire. If you noticed we had to pile a small mound in the front to cover the massive pipe connection. Did you even notice it in the first few pictures?

With the surround it make the room. We are proud of our inventions and ideas because our customers are always pleased.


The fire pit above and below have gray, gray reflective, Ice and red topper.

Here is a fireplace before and after with clear and a splash of Ice
 
The 2 fireplaces below are the same fireplace! This fireplace started out with a brick face and clear glass

After a little black granite and some clear ice, we have a very nice fireplace!
This fireplace belongs to Carl Herkes

The fireplace below has evergreen, evergreen reflective and topped with Ice.
Before and after, big difference?


This next self install is a 10 picture install with :
Azurlite, Clear, Blue Green, Blue Green Reflective, Ice Clear, Ice Blue. Very nice fireplace.










The fire pit below was a traditional lava rock fire pit
 
Now filled with lava rock (crushed 1/4" 3/8") over 3/8" 1/2" crushed. Remember the larger is under the smaller to keep the glass from falling through.
 
Above a flex line was installed to raise the ring to the surface. You don't want to leave the ring at the bottom unless you want an explosion or if you want to get rid of the significant other.
Below
Pour more crushed lava to make the desired shape of the fire pit and test burn for flame pattern.
 
Starfire base and a few other colors were added
Azurlite, Scarlet Topper, Red Topping, Ice, Copper Blue Topper, Copper Blue is a chameleon as when it gets hot it turns green and when it cools it turns back to blue!
 
Patterns, can you do better?
Pretty creative!
 
 
 
Great job and very creative.
 
The fireplace below has starfire and ice. This is a complete makeover and turned out very nice.





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 fireplace below has bronze, bronze reflective, Ice, gold and yellow amber topper. This fireplace is in Shawano, Wisconsin at the Cotton Patch Restaurant. E mail Patti and tell here you saw her fireplace.
Now for the after pictures! This was a custom propane burner which was under all of the glass!
This is what Patti had to say:
Hi Ed,
Well, it's been about two weeks since I installed the new fireplace, and it is the talk of this sleepy little town. Because of the "ice" on the top, it has been nicknamed the "Fire and Ice" fireplace. I just placed an order for a pound each of 1/4" gold, yellow amber topper and clear ice. I think it needs a smidgen more color, and since the ice is the big feature, I decided to add a little more. I have to say, I didn't think I would like the ice, but it looks amazing!
Thank you Ed and Jimmy for all of your help and hand holding over the past few months. I will take more pictures when I add the new products.
Thanks again,
Patti
The fireplace below is a propane burner, self installation with the 2" method, starfire and gold on top
 
Above we have 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! The fireplace below is in San Diego, California and the colors used were: Cobalt Blue Topper Steel Blue Topper Cranberry Pink Topping Purple Topper Lilac Topper Deep Royal Topping Clear Base Solex and Solex Reflective Azurlite and Azurlite Reflective Blue Green and Blue Green Reflective and a little bit of Ice Ice Ice on top wow! The end pictures show that the burner was too close the wall which was an easy fix by moving the burner forward. This
is where is went a little bit wrong, oops. We just had them move the
burner forward and now its fine and the back wall was repainted.   The unique display of ICE is just that, cool. You have to admit, our ICE looks like ICE! Another creative idea. The fireplace below is a direct vent self install by Norm. The colors used were: Starfire base, Cobalt Blue Topper, Pale Cobalt Blue Topper, Ice Ice Ice, Pale Gray Topper, Gray Topper and Copper Blue Topper. We use a piece of stainless steel in the front to contain the glass to cover the burners and keep the glass level. The fireplace below is in Mexico where we seem to be
sending more and more propane burners and glass for the new homes being
built there. The fireplace below has a black base glass with ice ice
ice on top of one of our propane pan burners. Which later a remote
control was added by the custom that we sent to them.   
The fire pit below has azurlite, 1/2" azurlite, Ice Ice Ice, starfire and platinum in the center. Lava rock was used to minimize on the use of glass to keep it in the budget.   The fireplace below is in Glendale Hills California. We installed starfire
as a base with about 1 lb of Ice Ice Ice on top. Then to finish it off
we installed a brass surround with bronze frosted glass. The customer
loved it! She is the CEO of Fredrick's of Hollywood! Awesome house by the way.          The
fire pit below is a new product line from TC, one of our newest
dealers. These come with a fibre optics feature, fire and water feature
included.The glass that was use was a clear base with Ice Ice Ice and a
splash of dark red orange topper, copper ruby red topper and several
diamonds through out for a pretty nice look. We will have pricing on
these as soon as we start to distribute their newer products.

The fireplace below is in Beverly Hills California.
We use a black base glass with Clear Ice Ice Ice on
top. The customer wanted to use their original burner to keep the
flames localized in the center area. This fireplace goes from "Log
Ugly" to very nice and contemporary in about an hour. If you really
take a look at your fireplace place in the beginning it almost looks
like an incinerator for long ago.
Not very nice? Nice Logs? I don't think so!
Now it's painted and ready for the glass.
A black base glass and 5 lbs of our Ice Ice Ice.
You can't see the Ice on still pictures but what it
is doing like looking into a spoon, it reflects backwards and appears
to be melting. Ask for a sample and you will be amazed.
