No fuss, no muss – a convenient choice

Modern gas fireplace inserts are an increasingly attractive hearth option for most homeowners. There are a wide variety of styles, ranging from sleek, modern and sophisticated to quaint old-fashioned or traditional designs. They have the charm of a ‘real' wood-burning fireplace along with the convenience of natural gas or propane. Gas fireplace mantels in oak, cherry and other fine woods are also available to complement your gas fireplace.

The most attractive characteristic of a gas log fireplace is its “instant-on” ability. There are those who love the experience of chopping kindling, building a small pile on some paper, and painstakingly lighting a wood fire – but for the rest of us, an instantly warm gas log fireplace allows the enjoyment of dancing flames on our own schedule.

Gas logs are gas fireplace inserts that burn brightly through glass fireplace doors or screens. These inserts can be turned on and off just as quickly and easily as a complete gas fireplace and they allow the use of your existing fireplace with minimal modification. Most gas fireplaces require electricity in order to automatically ignite. However, many come with the ability to manually start the fire with a match or other source of ignition in case of power outages. Although such operation comes with greater risks, it can be a lifesaver in a power outage or emergency scenario.

Gas fireplaces are available for recessed or wall mounted installation, which means that they can be installed as a retrofit in a traditional fireplace enclosure, or in some cases even installed ON a wall with minimal penetration. This can be extremely important in some applications, such as apartment installations where space is at a premium, and cutting large chunks out of walls may not be an acceptable option. Gas fireplaces are so small and modular that some are even approved for installation in mobile homes.

Gas log fireplace inserts are available in either vented or ventless models. Vented gas log insert models use either a traditional chimney/flue or else a purpose-built vent pipe, while ventless gas log models would be more accurately termed “room-vented”. They require no special venting, which means that they can be installed in apartments or other locations where outside ventilation simply isn't a choice. As well, since there are no hot gases escaping through the chimney, maximum heat radiates into the room. Conversely, any gases which are released go into the room in which the ventless gas fireplace log is located, which makes ventless fireplace log inserts a questionable choice for some extremely airtight homes. However, ventless gas fireplace logs are completely safe and healthy as long as your home has adequate air exchange in place – ask your installer if you have any questions about your home's air-replacement ability.

A blazing gas log fireplace without the wood or mess!

Gas logs deliver the cozy ambience of a fire in the fireplace without any of the preparation, maintenance, and cleanup that real wood fires demand. They provide stunning realism and warmth, as well as safety features to put your mind at ease. You can add gas logs to an existing fireplace or installed in ventless versions very inexpensively and can also be used as a back-up heating source during power failures because they require no electricity. 

What do vented gas logs use for fuel?

Gas logs use either natural gas or liquid propane. Natural gas logs are the most popular option and typically generate more heat than logs that use liquid propane, which are generally used only in places where natural gas is not available.

How are vented gas logs different from ventless gas logs?

The primary difference is that ventless gas logs can be operated with the chimney damper closed, which keeps significantly more heat in your home while vented gas logs operate with the damper open to produce a flame that looks more similar to a real wood fire flame. Basically, ventless gas logs provide more warmth than ambiance and vented gas logs provide a more realistic flame with stronger ambient firelight.

How much does installation cost?

The cost of installing gas logs varies by the particular job and installer. While there is no standard cost for installing gas logs, it is highly recommended that you use only certified professionals to install gas logs. Check with your local fuel provider for a  list of qualified installers in your area.  Read our "Converting my woodburning fireplace to Gas".

Are vented gas logs expensive to operate?

Because they are about 25% efficient, vented gas logs are generally quite expensive to operate.  A gas log's BTU (British Thermal Unit) output determines how much fuel it will use. Contact your local gas provider for current information regarding specific gas and operation costs.

Which produces more heat, vented or ventless gas logs?

Because most of the heat generated by vented gas logs is lost through the open chimney damper, they are more ideal for ambient light and a realistic flame. Ventless gas logs are much more efficient, and therefore use less energy to generate more heat in the home.

How do I determine the right size vented gas log for my fireplace?

Use your fireplace's measurements to help find gas logs that do not fit too tightly along the side and back walls or us our easy sizing guide to determine what vented gas log will best fit your existing fireplace.

Can I adjust the flame on vented gas logs?

Typically, gas logs do not have adjustable flames but some models with rotary control valve options allow you to regulate the flame.

 

How do I know that my vented gas log is safe?

The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) maintains strict standards for many heating products, including ventless gas logs. A gas log that complies with the ANSI standard Z 21.11.2 is considered safe for residential operation.

How are vented gas logs constructed?

Gas logs are made up of the burner and the fireproof "log" that conceals it. These logs are usually made of molded refractory cement, fired ceramic clay, or molded ceramic fibers. 

What is the difference between standard and see-through vented gas logs?

Standard gas logs are for standard, front-view fireplaces. See-through style gas logs are specifically designed for multi-sided fireplaces. These gas logs have a special burner system that directs the fire in such a way that it looks appealing and natural from various angles. 

Should I use a carbon monoxide detector in conjunction with a vented gas log?

Any energy source can produce carbon monoxide, which is why a detector is recommended in every home. 

Do vented gas logs require any special maintenance?

Outside of periodic professional inspection of its gas lines, valves, connections, and pilot, gas logs require no particular maintenance to remain in proper working order. 

If you wish to clean your gas logs, first make sure they are off and have cooled to room temperature. Brush gas logs with a soft bristled brush or duster to remove any dirt or dust. Do not remove gas logs from the burner or the fireplace and never use water or other solvents to clean gas logs. 

Can I burn wood in my gas log fire?

Never attempt to supplement a gas log fire by adding any combustible material to it, including wood. Nor should you remove gas logs from the fireplace to burn wood. The additional heat created by burning wood can damage gas logs and void your warranty. 

What are some optional controls for my vented gas log?

Base models of gas logs include controls inside the fireplace to ignite the gas logs. Some models can be operated by remote control or wall switch while others can be controlled by thermostat or timer to increase efficiency.

What is the purpose of a safety pilot on a vented gas log?

A gas log safety pilot stops the flow of gas in the event that the pilot goes out or the normal flow of gas is irregular. This automatic shut-off valve prevents the buildup of gas in the home or stops the flow of gas to the gas log if the fire becomes too hot. 

Should I shut off the pilot on my vented gas log during the summer?

It is not necessary to shut off your gas log pilot during summer months when your gas log is not in use but doing so may save money on fuel costs. 

Do the embers around my vented gas log burn and will they ever need to be replaced?

The glowing accent embers that complete the look of many gas logs do not actually burn and therefore do not need to be replaced. They are made of a mineral called rock wool that is organic and fireproof.
