Overview
The Charred Oak Vented Gas Log Set captures oak that looks freshly burned, with rich, rustic char detail layered over crisp bark for a fire that appears well underway from the first flame. It is a versatile, broadly flattering set that suits both traditional and transitional fireplaces. Available across an unusually wide size range, it fits everything from compact to generous fireboxes.
Why we carry it
We carry Real Fyre because Peterson has hand-painted ceramic refractory logs in the USA since 1949 and leads the industry in realism. Each Charred Oak log is individually cast from a real wood sample, hand-finished, and reinforced with internal steel rods to prevent cracking and hold detail under high heat.

How to size & measure your fireplace
Measure the front width, rear width, depth, and height of your firebox before selecting a size. Choose a set about 6 inches narrower than the front opening so the flames clear the surround. With three burner styles and four ignition systems offered, this vented set adapts to most fireplaces, provided you have a functioning chimney and damper.

FAQ
Why is the size range so wide? Charred Oak is offered from 16 to 30 inches, including a 19 inch option, so it fits tight fireboxes other sets cannot.

Natural gas or propane? Both; configure your fuel at checkout.

Frequently asked questions
Vented vs. ventless gas logs — which is right for me?
Vented gas logs require a working chimney/flue (open damper during use). They produce a more realistic, taller flame and expel combustion byproducts outdoors. Ventless (vent-free) gas logs burn cleaner so they don't require a flue — but they release combustion moisture and trace byproducts into the room. Vented = more realistic look + fully outdoor exhaust. Ventless = higher heat efficiency + flexible install but check local codes (some jurisdictions restrict ventless).
Are ventless gas logs safe?
Ventless gas logs sold in the US must include an oxygen depletion sensor (ODS) by design — the unit shuts off automatically if room oxygen drops below safe levels. Most also include built-in carbon monoxide protections. To use safely: install a CO detector in the room, follow the BTU sizing limits for your room volume, crack a window if running for extended periods, and don't run continuously for more than the manufacturer's stated maximum (typically 4 hours). Some states and municipalities do not permit ventless installation — check your local code.
Can I use gas logs in my wood-burning fireplace?
Yes — vented gas logs are designed to drop into a working masonry or pre-fab wood-burning fireplace. The chimney/flue must be inspected and verified working (open damper during use). You'll also need a gas line run to the firebox if one isn't already there. Always have a licensed gas plumber install the line and have a hearth professional install and test the burner.
How do I light gas logs?
Most modern gas log sets use a millivolt valve with a wall switch or remote, or a match-light system where you ignite a pilot manually with a match. Check your specific set's manual. For first lighting after install, follow the manufacturer's burn-in procedure (typically 4–6 hours total of staged burns) to cure the logs and burner coatings before regular use.
Free shipping and warranty?
Free freight shipping on all orders, contiguous US. Most gas log sets carry a 5-year warranty on the burner and a limited lifetime warranty on the ceramic logs against defects (warranty terms vary by manufacturer — full details on each product page). 30-day return window on unused, uninstalled gas log sets.
