Logs or Insert?
 
 


For people who have an existing fireplace but seldom use it, a set of gas logs may be the best way to have dancing flames at your fingertips. Gas logs provide dramatic realism, from the lifelike ceramic fiber, concrete or refractory logs down to the glowing embers. These log sets have a burner that uses either natural gas or propane.

Gas log sets have a spectacular flame pattern, but are decorative only. Whether you want the look of a small split oak or massive charred oak logs, there is a gas log set for you.

Gas logs are relatively inexpensive and are easy to retrofit. Most fireplaces now include a built-in provision for running the gas line and flexible piping saves time and money.

Gas Inserts


Fireplace inserts are heating units that retrofit into an existing fireplace (masonry or factory-built). They burn gas with superior efficiency. Inserts utilize the existing chimney, with a flue liner.
Most have blowers to circulate the heat. Inserts are used to change an existing non-efficient fireplace into an efficient, heat producing zone heater.
