    Empire thinks that when it comes to creating a heating unit that provides heat to your living quarters, it would also be nice if it possessed some visual appeal. The Visual Flame Gas Room Heater runs off Propane and is designed to give to both you and your family the appearance of a fire. After all, having a unit keep you warm in the winter months is nice but also it is equally nice if it is able to provide a bit of a visual enhancement that creates a dramatically different atmosphere.

    Is there a manual on-off switch for the blower on the unit?

    1 Answer
    No, the fan control is automatic and cannot be manually adjusted. The fan control will require between 5 and 10 minutes of main burner operation before the fan control “closes†and activates the blower. The blower will continue to run between 5 and 10 minutes after the main burner shuts off before the fan control “opens†and deactivates the blower.

    May 26, 2019
    Is there a separate on/off switch for the blower OR does the blower always have to be on when the stove is on?


    1 Answer
    The automatic fan control is located in the switch box. The switch box is attached to the front of the blower assembly. The switch box is adjacent to the combustion chamber. The fan control is a non-adjustable automatic type. The fan control will require between 5 and 10 minutes of main burner operation before the fan control “closes†and activates the blower. The blower will continue to run between 5 and 10 minutes after the main burner shuts off, before the fan control “opens†and deactivates the blower.

    What is largest crock I can hook this to without installing a liner?
    1 Answer
    This unit should not be vented into a tile that is more than 1 inch over size. As such, a liner should be used with anything over a 6 inch I.D.

    Love this heater!!!
    I recently bought a new house and needed to replace the old freestanding vented heater. This heater is awesome and heats my whole house which is small. I am very pleased. The only thing that needed to be changed was the size of the pipe which was a 4 inch on the old one

    just as advertised
    Our Empire vented room heater model RH-65-7 was shipped promptly and arrived in great condition. Following the instructions the hook up went smoothly and after the first several cycles to burn off the oils etc from manufacturing it has run great. It is much quieter than I had anticipated and distributes the heat evenly. Truly just as advertised.

    Excellent Product
    Glad we bought this one from this dealer, the price is reasonable compared to others out there. We bought another stove yrs ago at twice the price, it was only guaranteed for 10 yrs. When it went out, then couldn't buy parts for it. This is the one for you!
    Was everything it show online, has been working excellent, would recommend to others to buy this one. The only thing is when you lite this stove, hold down button while someone else lites it in front, it would be so much easier if the two was closer together.

    Good value for a good gas heater!
    This is a very good buy on a home gas heater, the price was excellent along with service. The only complaint(?) is when you go to lite it, it is hard to lite with one hand in front the other in back, that would be the only improvement for this heater I could recommend. Glad I bought one!
    The look & value of this product! Not a better looking one for this price anywhere. It is hard to lite for us, ( we are in our late 50's) , but hopefully they will do some modifications to it so it will easier to lite.

    Excellent Upgrade
    This is definitely an excellent upgrade from the previous fifty year old unit. I hope it is able to last a good long while.
