Vent-Free Gas Logs and Inserts

    Vent-Free gas logs and inserts operate at 99.9% efficiency due to the closed damper delivering $.99 of heat for every dollar worth of gas consumed.  These units can be used as supplemental heat for zone heating, focusing warmth where it is needed or provide emergency heat during power outages.  They require no vent for ease of installation on any interior or exterior wall with adequate air volume.  A Vent-Free insert can be installed into most existing operable or non-operable wood burning fireplaces adding efficiency and decreasing the cost of expensive flue repairs.  Vent-Free fireplaces use environmentally friendly natural gas or propane – among the cleanest of all fossil fuels, according to the EPA.  There are units available with manual controls, remote controls, and complete electronic ignition function.   Click through to see our selection of high quality gas logs.

Vented Gas Logs

      Vented gas logs are very realistic and cosmetically pleasing flame pattern and glowing embers.  They produce slightly more heat than a wood fireplace due to refractory ceramic logs that radiate heat after warm up.   No ashes, wood chips, or dust to clean and no heavy wood to haul and split.  These gas logs use environmentally friendly natural gas or propane – among the cleanest of all fossil fuels, according to the EPA.  Installation is approved for most operable wood burning fireplaces without modification.  There are units available with manual controls, remote controls, and complete electronic ignition function.   Click through to see our selection of high quality gas logs.
