What could be better than sitting in front of a nice, warm fireplace on a cold winter evening? Relaxing in front of dancing flames while you unwind from a hard day at work?
Besides the obvious charming benefits of propane fireplaces, they also serve another purpose: a viable backup heat source should power be lost.

From realistic features to an attractive design, this Astria fireplace is one that you’ll love to add to any room in your home.
We’ll take a closer look at the Astria Orion LR, its manufacturer and information about other Astria fireplace products, and how you can become the proud owner of this modern gas fireplace.
About Astria Fireplaces

Safety
Though propane is considered a safer heating fuel than natural gas, mainly because it is easier to detect a propane gas leak as compared to a natural gas leak, there are still safety topics that should be discussed when you’re considering the installation of propane fireplaces or any other propane products.
It is always important that you use professionals, like trained technicians from Diversified Energy, to properly install propane gas lines. These experts in the gas line and gas product installations will adhere to safety codes and product specifications so your fireplace, grill, stove, or other units will operate efficiently, properly, and safely.
With its distinct “rotten egg” odor, and added chemical to propane for leak detection purposes, you can easily identify a propane gas leak. Be aware of this smell and immediately contact your propane supplier or fire department to handle the issue.
Adding a carbon monoxide detector or detectors, checking periodically to ensure that your pilot light is lit, using professionals to re-light a pilot light, and making sure that your propane storage tank does not run out of gas are all safety practices that you should incorporate that will keep you and your family safe when using propane-powered fireplaces and other products.
