efficient cast iron stove to heat the home, as it is powered by the

heating bills. The real power of GreenSmart system is the entire

Lopi Bostonian SS GreenSmart Gas Fireplace
The Bostonian™ SS (Space Saver) GreenSmart is Lopi's newest gas
fireplace. With the combination of convective heat, radiant heat and
reduced depth dimension the unit is ideal for zone heating in
bedrooms, dens and intimate spaces. The fireplace features 564
square inches of high quality, high clarity, tempered glass with a
removable safety screen.
The realistic "wood like" flame, along with the heat output can be
controlled by the convenient GreenSmart gas valve. The GreenSmart
feature allows you to turn off part of the burner with the push of
the button to really turn down the heat while maintaining the fire
and glowing embers. This allows you to comfortably be able to use
your fireplace year around. And now the Bostonian SS GreenSmart
comes standard with the very popular accent light for an added glow
when the fireplace is on or off really showcasing the fireplace in
every setting.
The Bostonian SS GS features an Intermittent Pilot Ignition (IPI),
which allows you to run your fireplace in either standing pilot
mode - where the pilot flame stays on which is ideal in really cold
climates where it is important to maintain a draft for proper
operation, or in the electronic ignition mode (IPI), where your
pilot flame goes out when you turn off your fireplace saving you
precious fuel and money. This makes the Bostonian SS GS the
most "Green" fireplace you can own.
The Bostonian SS GS gas fireplace allows you the option of adding
the revolutionary "GreenSmart" modulating remote control.
This "ultimate" hands free control gives you the ability to control
virtually every function of the fireplace from the comfort of your
couch. You control the flame and heat output manually, run the
fireplace on thermostat mode or set your fireplace to the"Smart"
mode. The "Smart" mode automatically modulates the fire and heat
up and down to maintain the beauty of the fire and room
temperature. Most fireplaces only have the ability to turn the
flame on and off trying to maintain the room temperature with
the "Smart" mode your room will stay at a more constant temperature
and you will be able to enjoy the beauty of the fire longer using
the same amount or less fuel.
The Bostonian SS GS can be personalized for each room or home décor.
Choose from something as simple as the basic grill to three
different face options in a choice of textured finishes. Add the
reversible brick fireback, choose from a straight brick or
herringbone pattern or basketweave or vertical quilt designs.
Complete the interior transformation with one of the three beautiful
andirons adding even more realism to your gas fireplace. Finally
complete your installation by adding a quiet convection blower that
is ideal for circulating the fireplace warmth quickly and evenly
throughout the room increasing the overall efficiency of the
fireplace.
Practical, efficient and beautiful - The Bostonian gas fireplace
makes the ideal fireplace solution to any home.

Antique Slate Enamel Finish for Berkshire & Sturbridge freestanding gas stoves
Discover classic beauty and proven durability with Lopi's
Berkshire and Sturbridge freestanding, cast iron gas stoves with
our new Antique Slate porcelain enamel finish! An ancient art,
porcelain enamel is applied as powdered glass. When fired in a kiln
at temperatures up to 1650ºF, the powdered glass melts and flows
across the cast iron, firmly bonding with the base metal. Our
Antique Slate enamel is a soft gray-blue tone, the result of a
unique double layer application process. As the color layer flows
over the cream-colored base layer, edges and design highlights are
revealed as a paler tone. The process transforms the Berkshire and
its smaller companion, the Sturbridge, into examples of true hand-
made craftsmanship. These are tomorrow's heirlooms with today's
state-of-the-art gas technology. Comforting warmth never looked so
good.
