Choose between electric and gas fireplace logs

Written by Editor on March 7th, 2010

Ok, it’s officially winter. It’s freezing cold with temperatures in the single digits and wind chills running 20-30 below zero. Brrr. But what if you don’t have a true built in fireplace? Sometimes you’re left looking for an artificial method for producing that comforting flame.

Vent-free gas fireplace logs produce a flame that is more blue than yellow, not unlike the flame found with many gas space heaters. One of the advantages of using vent-free logs is that they will produce less soot than the vented varieties. Be careful about burning waste paper and fireplace logs in your fireplace. The commercial logs have wax in them. The overall result is that when burning the log set appears far more realistic than is normally the case with fireplace logs.

With gas fireplace logs you can rest assured that you will have the perfect fire any time of day or night, 365 days a year. And if your set doesn’t require any electricity to start the initial flame then you’re assured to have a heat source if you lose electric power during a severe storm. Some of the country’s regions have experienced power losses that run for several days so having a good source of heat is essential.

For many fireplace log sets no natural gas lines or electrical outlets are necessary In fact, with many there is no permanent installation of any kind. Simple math tell you that with proper use of your vent free fireplace, you can achieve a 30% or more reduction in your gas consumption! This can also be a great way to heat your house, shop, or garage.
