As for safety features, HPC Fire is known as the industry standard. Their burners include flame sensing technology, which automatically shuts off the gas supply if the flame is extinguished, and emergency gas shut-off valves for quick and easy gas shut-off in the event of an emergency

This burner can be converted to propane and if desired, comes with a propane conversion kit, which includes an air mixer, coupler, and nipple. When installing the burner, make sure it's at least 6" smaller than the inside dimensions of your enclosure, and that the burner ports face upwards. 

Aside from Bluetooth hi/lo, there are three other options for ignition depending on your application and preferences: (1) Match Lit, (2) FPPK Push Button and (3) Electronic On/Off.

How to choose between a Bowl Pan or Flat Pan Insert?

Let’s start with bowl style pan, or spun pan. HPC Fire Inspired™ bowl pans are made through a manufacturing style called spinning. Metal spinning does not involve removal of material, as in conventional wood or metal turning, but forming (molding) of sheet material 18ga. 304 stainless steel over an existing shape.

This results in a much more ridged finished product than a flat pan as it has the sides and the lip for added rigidity and does not rely on the burner for rigidity. HPC Fire bowl style pans also incorporate a 1-3/8” lip, or collar that is perfect for a floating installation into an opening.

The bowl style pans are perfect for glass media as well, due to the sides and the cleaner install with the lip of the pan. The bowl pans will not hold water due to the ¼” weep holes in the pans. All of the HPC Fire CSA certified appliances: electronic ignition (EI), push-button flame sense (FPPK), and match-lit (MLFPK) are available with the bowl style pan. 

As you look through bowl style sizing keep in mind that the size of the pan reflects the inside diameter (ID) of the pan, and does not include the 1-3/8” lip.

The flat pans are a little more economical than the bowl style pan, but they do not have a lip for easy installation.

The installer must find a way to support the flat pan within the opening, with support lips, rebar or supports on the sidewall of the opening. Because the flat pans do not have sides or a lip they rely on the burner being mounted to the pan to provide rigidity the pan needs to support the added weight. Any type of media can be used with a flat pan including glass, but the gap between the edge of the pan and the opening must be within a 1/8” to keep the glass from falling below the pan, so the larger the pieces of media the better for a flat pan. As above, all of our flat pans also have ¼” weep holes to mitigate any water that may stand on the pan. Due to heat from the flame, the flat will deflect a bit as they are burned but this hidden by the media being used over the burner. Each flat pan is cut out to size from a sheet of 18ga. 304 sheet of stainless steel. Keep in mind, all of HPC flat pans are cut ¼” smaller than the listed size. For example, our 36” flat pans measure 35-3/4” to help with perfect sizing.
