Will this fireplace still work if the power is out?
1 Answer
Because this unit is a standing pilot, millivolt unit, the fireplace will indeed operate when there is a power outage. Unless an accessory blower is installed, the unit requires no power for operation.

I would recommend this item to a friend.
Overall good experience
I was surprised how difficult it was to find a fireplace the size I needed to fit in an old coal fireplace (shallow depth); this store was far more detailed than other websites I visited and I soon was able to find a fireplace with the BTU's I wanted that would fit in my space. I compared that product with other vendors and found this store to be also cheaper than other places. I placed the order and was further impressed with the speed of shipping, and the customer service I received. Item was well packaged, complete, and good quality. I would highly recommend this fireplace, and this seller.
ProsShallow depth to fit in tight spaces. Great looking flame, realistic looking logs
ConsNone I have found yet.
