Let’s just say that I no longer will be using a propane fireplace.
I bought it a few years ago, and I used it for the past two winters.
It honestly did a great job of heating the downstairs of my house. It was really nice having some extra heat, especially during the really cold winter months that we have around here. It gets down below zero degrees quite a bit, and sometimes, my furnace has trouble keeping my house nice and warm. I actually would have said that I loved my propane fireplace if you would have asked me just a few weeks ago. I only used it while I was at home because I was worried that it would catch my house on fire whenever I left. There were only a few times when I left the house and forgot to turn it off. My friends used to make fun of me for being worried about my fireplace catching my house on fire. I don’t think they will ever make fun of me again because my fireplace actually did catch my house on fire a couple of weeks ago. I had a fake plant next to my fireplace, and it fell into the flames and caught on fire. The fire traveled down the plant and caught the rug near it on fire. It was so scary. Thankfully, I was home, so I caught it rather quickly. I was able to put it out, but I will certainly never use that fireplace again. After I put the fireplace out, I text the two friends that made fun of me for being afraid of my fireplace catching the house on fire, and I told them what had happened.
