Fuel Options and Safety Features

Flambeaux gas lights are compatible with natural gas or propane, depending on your setup. You can also add a thermocouple safety shutoff, which automatically stops gas flow if the flame goes out — ideal for windy or coastal areas.

While we offer electronic ignition systems, most clients prefer manual operation for reliability and ease of maintenance. Learn more about ignition systems →
