A Lava Heat Italia Heater is not only a statement of style and elegance but is the virtue of functionality as well. Standing nearly eight-feet tall, the impressive engineering and design is second only to the heat and ambient lighting provided by the unit. Radiating up to 41,000 BTU and showing off an adjustable, elegant flame in its weather-tight Borosilicate shatter-resistant glass tube, the Lava Heat Italia Lite provides comfort and light throughout the year, no matter the weather. The tube is secured within the "Safe to Touch" powder-coated steel safety grill to keep hands at bay. The Flame height and heat output are adjusted from the easy-start manual push ignition and control panel located on the device. Constructed of all metal parts and components. Operates on a standard propane tank (purchase separately) which stores in the base. Safety "tip-over" switch disconnects the gas supply should the unit be knocked over. "Flame Failure" protection means if the flame is blown out or extinguished, the gas supply is automatically disconnected. CSA certified. High quality metal body in a hammered bronze finish.
