VENTED GAS LOGS
Nothing compares to the realism of a high quality vented gas log. All of our vented sets have high detail ceramic or refractory casting and multicolored painted logs that look like real wood. Glowing embers are the base for an active flame. Accessories like crackling embers, raised ember beds, and burner extensions are available for some sets. Even though they burn more cleanly than wood, vented decorative gas logs must be fully vented (damper completely open) and they are not sold as a heating appliance. If you are a traditional wood-burner and are unwilling to sacrifice realism for heat, vented decorative gas logs may satisfy your needs.
