If you love romantic evenings by the fireplace but it’s smack dab in the heat of summer, this item is for you! I love it. My new ClassicFlame heater provides the fireplace ambiance without using the heat feature. First thing you’ll need to do is attach the legs. Easily done! Then attach the handle to the picture window door and it’s ready to be used. The system uses infrared quartz heat to keep from reducing the humidity. It can provide supplemental heat up to 1,000sq ft. The control panel is in the front. There’s a thermostat to adjust heat comfort levels. The dancing flame over the log effect is so romantic! It’s such a pretty piece to keep out all year long.
