Empire Stoves are available in two types of ignition:  Millivolt (MV) and Intermittent Pilot (IP). The Millivolt system lights a standing pilot with a pushbutton piezo ignitor. Once the standing pilot is lit, the MV system operates with an on/off switch concealed on the back of the burner or with one of the optional remote control systems listed on the back of this brochure. The standing pilot allows your Empire stove to provide heat during power outages. IP systems eliminate the standing pilot for even greater energy savings. Pressing the on/off switch ignites the pilot, which then ignites the main burner. IP systems can also operate with an optional remote control system. Includes AC adaptor with battery backup. The continuous pilot switch allows your Empire stove to provide heat during extended power outages.

All Empire Cast Iron Stoves ship assembled in one carton, for easier set-up.
