18" Charred Rugged Split Oak Vented Gas Log Set

The Charred Rugged Split Oak ANSI Vented Gas Log Set contrasts dark, etched bark against light oak heartwood for a true-to-life split-and-charred appearance with striking tonal depth. That two-tone realism is its signature, reading convincingly as recently split and lightly burned timber. Built on the certified G45 platform, it pairs rugged looks with a safety-tested, ready-to-install system.

Why we carry it

We carry Real Fyre because Peterson has hand-painted ceramic refractory logs in the USA since 1949 with realism no competitor matches. Each log is individually cast from a real sample, hand-painted to capture the dark char and pale heartwood, and steel-reinforced for durability.

Specifications

• Fuel: Natural Gas or Propane
• Vented: requires a working chimney/flue with an operable damper

How to size & measure your fireplace

Measure your firebox front width, rear width, depth, and height before selecting a size. Compare all four measurements with the minimum fireplace dimensions for the selected burner and controls. Because the burner is vented, your fireplace requires a functioning chimney and operable damper.
