Gas Logs

A gas log set is a set of artificial logs designed to be installed in a fireplace. When connected to natural gas or propane, the burner creates real flames that mimic wood fire without the mess of wood logs.

Vented gas logs set require a working chimney or flue and offer more realistic, natural‑looking flames. Ventless gas log sets (also called vent free) don’t require a chimney and are more heat‑efficient, pushing most warmth into the room.

Some ventless logs can be used in a vented fireplace, but not all. It’s critical to follow manufacturer guidelines and local codes for safety. Ventless sets produce combustion gases that need proper oxygen monitoring.

Measure your fireplace’s width, depth, and height to find the correct size. A popular option is a 24 inch gas log set for standard fireplaces, but always confirm dimensions before purchase to ensure a proper fit.

For RealFyre gas logs, many users report that using the manufacturer’s recommended burner and valve setup can help reduce issues like excessive sooting, although logs might still function with a compatible system.

Vented logs are typically less heat efficient because much of the heat escapes up the chimney, making them more decorative and ambiance focused than a ventless set.

A double sided/multi sided gas fireplace log set is designed for see through or two‑sided fireboxes, allowing flames to be visible from both sides and enhancing the fireplace’s visual impact.

Annual professional inspections are recommended to check for gas leaks, clean burners, and ensure proper pilot light operation.
