What are the advantages of vent-free log sets?
They normally use less gas than vented logs and produce more heat since no venting is required. They can be used in homes that do not have a masonry fireplace. Can I install vent-free gas logs in my masonry fireplace? Yes. They can be vented or the damper can be closed and be burned as vent-free for an excellent source of heat. Can I move or change the log position in my vent-free gas log system? No. Each log has a specific position and is certified by a testing agency such as C.S.A in this position. Refer to the installation instructions for the correct set up of your log set. Should I turn off the pilot when not burning the gas logs? This is not necessary. Pilot flames burn very little gas and serve as a convenience for easy relighting of the gas logs. If using a remote control or thermostat model, it would be necessary to leave the pilot for the log set to function as it is designed. Do vent-free gas logs require any type of maintenance? Yes. Gas logs should be serviced at least ann
