The present invention generally relates to a use of a thermoelectric module in conjunction with a fireplace or stove to generate electricity to run certain features or peripheral devices related to the stove or fireplace. The thermoelectrical module may be positioned between interior and exterior walls of the stove or fireplace outside and protected from the fire generated in the combustion chamber of the stove or fireplace. Power generated by the thermoelectric module may be used for various purposes such as powering a blower, a control unit such as a microprocessor, lights, back-up systems, ignition systems, and flame control devices. Furthermore, the power generated by the thermoelectric module may be saved in a power storage device such as a rechargeable battery or capacitor for a later use by various devices associated with fireplace or stove.
