Can you use the heater without the flames on? I noticed it said you can use the flames without heat, but couldn't find anything vice versa.

I don't know for the first but I wouldn't use it near an open flame regardless. For the second I don't think so. I used it with the windows closed and had no problems.

Yes, but without the fan which goes off with the flame effect the unit will overheat. The flame is intended to be on whenever the unit is on.

You must use a lighter. This unit does the job of heating but it is cheaply made. We have had ours for three years. just be careful with it

We have used ours for 2 years now. So far no problem w/ the heater. We did have a problem where something got stuck and melted much of the unit. I contacted the manufacturer and they were very good about repairing my unit. I have actually had a couple of problems, the other was some board went out. Again, they were very good about replacing the board. I have not had a problem in a while, so I don't know if they would still be so good, but we do LOVE our machine!

actually never had any problem with the flame. I let grill heat up with lid on then reduce heat to low or medium to cook. Grill works great and I'm very satisfied with it's operation.

Yes.....the fireplace does not get hot...just hot air comes out of the blower! Great product!

Hello Beatrice. You can run the humidifier without using the heat. With the MODE button on the remote control set the heater to FAN setting, then using the HUMIDIFIER button on the remote turn the humidifier on. You will be good to go.

There are multiple settings and u can turn the flames on without the heat. I like it flames look pretty real.

I would not attempt to use the unit without electricity. The unit works like a forced air heating system. You have the burner train and air is force through the flames to produce heat at the outlet.

Botts,This has been edited, sorry... I originally posted that it COULD be run without heat, sorry for any confusion, I was thinking about one of our other ultrasonics. The unit can NOT be run without the heat, but you can adjust it.Hope this helps.Robert

There is no need to use a lighter. The ring is NOT meant to ignite the heater!This heater ignites when you turn the temp / gas valve ALL THE WAY open. It will click then.Ignore the ring on the side of the heater. I have never used it at all! (I believe it is some kind of primer, but it is entirely unneccecery. Turn the heat knob all the way up and keep clicking that until it lights. If you wait about half a second while it is on high before clikcing the igniter (by turning it farther) it should light instantly. Don't leave it on without igniting it of course, it will puff and flame up when it does ignite if you do. There is no need to use a lighter.

Probably best with a gas stove only... with no flame, you only get hot-stove contact on the -bottom- of the balls.... your pan won't get hot enough is my guess.

While I am sure it would work without burning anything below the burner, you would be insane to have this anywhere but the ground. There is a reason those safety guidelines exist. Because some moron some time sat this thing on an unstable table or bench or something and burned themselves. Then probably sued the company because there wasn't a little line in the manual saying that you shouldn't do stupid stuff with fire. Twit.

Yes the flame has great movement and adjustable color all with the remote. At night when I go to bed I turn off the flames with the remote. I keep the heater running without flames at night on low, it's in the low 40s outside and it keeps my 12x20 room warm and thats on LOW. I do have good insulation. Hope that helps

Hi there,Yes, the fireplace can be used without expelling any heat. The thermostat on it can be changed, as well as the brightness of the flames.Thanks for your question-Wishack

I own this heater and have been very, very pleased with it. I recommend it highly. I can't find my instruction manual at this moment, but I do recall reading that it can only use kerosene. I am not 100% certain that is true, but okay....I'm 99% sure I read that when I got it. I noticed some reviews on other websites that said "Wish it could use farm diesel fuel," so that tends to make me think it will not, even without finding my user manual and reading it for myself. However, as I mentioned, this is a great heater. For my applications, it's the best thing I have found.
