Know before you buy
Yes, this is a vented gas log set. It must be installed in a fully functional, wood-burning fireplace with an open damper to vent combustion byproducts safely outside.
RealFyre log sets are typically fuel-specific. You must ensure you purchase the version compatible with your home's gas supply, as natural gas and propane burners are not interchangeable.
Because they are gas-powered, you do not need to clean up ash, soot, or wood debris. We recommend an annual inspection by a professional to ensure the burner and pilot assembly remain clean and in good working order.
While these logs provide radiant warmth and create a cozy atmosphere, they are primarily designed for aesthetic appeal rather than as a primary heating source. Most of the heat generated will escape through the chimney due to the vented design.
The 18/20-inch designation refers to the burner size and the recommended fireplace width. Ensure your firebox has at least 20 inches of width at the front and sufficient depth to accommodate the burner and log placement without crowding the fireplace walls.
