Know before you buy
No, the Real Fyre Split Oak Designer Plus logs are specifically engineered for vented fireplaces only. They require a chimney or flue to exhaust combustion byproducts safely.
Measure the width of the front opening, the back wall, and the depth of your fireplace floor. You should select a size that allows for at least 3 to 6 inches of clearance on each side to ensure proper airflow and flame aesthetics.
Yes, these logs are compatible with both fuel types. However, you must specify your fuel source at the time of purchase, as the burner and valve assembly must be configured correctly for either natural gas or propane to operate safely.
The ignition options range from a basic match-lit system, which requires manual lighting, to advanced electronic pilots that allow you to ignite the fire via a remote control. Choose a standing pilot if you prefer a constant flame ready to light, or an electronic system for maximum convenience and energy efficiency.
These logs are low-maintenance, but you should periodically inspect the burner ports for debris and ensure the logs are positioned exactly as shown in the manual. Avoid using cleaning chemicals on the ceramic, as a soft brush is usually sufficient to remove any dust.
With a heat output of 90,000 BTU, these logs provide significant warmth, often exceeding the heat output of a standard wood fire. Because they are vented, much of the heat will be directed up the chimney, so they are best used for ambiance rather than primary home heating.
