AMERICAN PANEL | EMBER DEFENDERS TYPE-1 TEXTURED BLACK
The American Panel Hearth Products Ember Defender has seen tremendous growth in the last few years and for more reasons than simply being less expensive. We build our Ember Defenders with a heavy gauge steel (10 gauge) to prevent bowing, a common issue, in addition to curling, that occurs with cheaper hearth pads. We also powder coat both sides. If your hearth pad does arrive with a scratch, it can be flipped over to what we hope will be a flawless finish.
Many customers move to this hearth pad, as it is easy to get along with in your home. Since it is only 1/8" thick, it is not a trip hazard, especially for an installation that may require your hearth pad to extend into a natural walkway. This is also helpful if your home has family members in a wheelchair or using a walker.
This is a Type 1 (Ember Protection Only) product and will not work if your stove requires the hearth pad to provide thermal protection. Fortunately, more and more stove manufacturers are building products that require Ember Protection.
NOTE: The steel hearth pads have two small holes (approx. 5mm in diameter) along the back edge due to the manufacturing process.
Features & Benefits
- Provides excellent Type 1 protection.
- Heavy gauge powder-coated steel.
- No removal of carpeting required.
- Listed to UL 1618 tested protection for your family’s safety/security.
- Ground strap kit available if needed.
- Manufactured in the USA.
Color Options
The Ember Defender steel hearth pad is available in black, which is slightly textured and the same on both sides. The Ember Defender is also available with an Artisan finish, done by lightly grinding the steel and applying heat to one side. When complete, a clear powder-coat is applied to both sides. The result is one side will have more of a Bronze/Blue color, and the other will have more of a Blue/Bronze color. No two will ever be the same.

the main gain is my boss is happy. I have been planning for three months with my circle and they suggest this one. It took month to arrive but it was safe after all, my boss was happy. thats it. thank you belleflame.
I bought a few items for my outdoor kitchen, including access doors, drawers, power burner and a grill cover. Belle was having a sale, had no tax and free shipping, make them the best online price I could find. Moreover, after placing my order, I wanted to make a couple of changes to my order - add another item, and change an item. Their online chat help was exceptionally responsive and helpful.
Everything arrived well packaged. Will definitely order from them again.
Belle Flame not only had the best price for the unit I wanted, they also sell many of the parts and upgrades. When my unit was delivered, there were 2 issues in shipping and they stepped up and immediately handled them to my satisfaction after getting details, photos and working with carrier. I would recommend working with them and the Osburn stove is beautiful and excited to get it installed.
Price was way better than anywhere i looked, i was a little nervous about it but everything i ordered came fast and perfectly packaged. There was a slight miscommunication with the delivery company but that was on them not the fireplace store. Overall highest recommendations to use them. Thank you.
Great communication during shipping process, item arrived damage free, was well packaged to prevent damage. Could not be more pleased!
I was looking at the Montlake 300 wood insert on the internet and found Belle Flame. The price were less around $200-$300 from other stores and also they had a sales ongoing. I find this to be a better deal and talked someone named Moni on the phone. He confirmed everything was in stock and will be shipped next day after my order. I was really interested and put the order #4483 with them. We received the insets perfectly on time and make it installed within 3 weeks of purchasing. This is my best purchase ever and I will come back again to belle flame for their outstanding customer service. Thank you very much.

Great company! Very helpful in explaining the Stove before purchasing and the extra features. I ordered it way ahead of the scheduled project and did not install in until 7 months later. Customer services is definitely earned a 5 Star in my book! Many thanks to all there! We'll be calling again soon for our next project.
Excellent, sturdy, good looking product. Property packed for shipment. Arrived undamaged. Convenient scheduling of freight delivery to my home.
Knowledgeable staff, returned phone calls when requested, worked hard to find the correct stove for my needs and applied discount. Just amazing service. It's nice working with a company that really cares.

Order shipped quickly. Good price
The Monesson Linear Ventless Fireplace was shipped as expected. However, one item, had some damage in shipment. I contacted Lionel to let him know. He was very kind and understanding and said that I should send photos of the issue. About a week later a new shipment was received. Unfortunately, another piece was faulty; the fragility of the "driftwood" was hard to keep safe. I contacted Lionel again he requested another shipment, this time with a placard identifying it was fragile. Fortunately the third try was successful. Thanks to Lionel for his great customer service our fireplace is now complete.
Very pleased with the Buck stove that we ordered. Unit was in excellent condition upon receipt. Unit works perfectily and will be added comfort during the long winter nights.
Belle Flame not only had the best price for the unit I wanted, they also sell many of the parts and upgrades.

Belle Flame worked tirelessly to ensure that my complete order was fulfilled. One of the driftwood pieces was broken in shipment and it took 3 tries to get the job done.
