Which Gas Logs are Best for my Fireplace?
Choosing gas logs involves more than selecting the set that looks best. The logs, burner and controls must fit the fireplace and be suitable for the available fuel and venting system.
Before recommending a product, Nova Fireplace & Stove can evaluate:
- Firebox width, height and depth
- Front, middle and rear fireplace dimensions
- Chimney and damper condition
- Available ventilation and draft
- Natural gas or propane supply
- Existing gas-line capacity
- Burner clearance requirements
- Desired flame appearance
- Supplemental heating goals
- Preferred ignition and control method
- Manufacturer installation requirements
- Applicable building and safety codes
Gas logs that are too large, incorrectly positioned or paired with the wrong burner can perform poorly and may create unsafe operating conditions. Professional selection and installation help ensure that the complete system works as intended.

Convert a Wood-Burning Fireplace to Gas Logs
Tired of purchasing, carrying and storing firewood? In many homes, an existing wood-burning fireplace can be converted to a gas log system.
A typical conversion may require:
- Fireplace and chimney inspection
- Firebox measurements
- Gas-line installation
- Damper evaluation or modification
- Selection of a compatible burner
- Log and control-system installation
- Operational and safety testing
The correct solution depends on the fireplace construction, chimney condition, available gas supply and how you plan to use the fireplace.
Schedule an evaluation to learn whether vented gas logs, vent-free gas logs or a gas fireplace insert would be the better option for your home.

What are gas logs?
Gas logs are ceramic or refractory log reproductions installed over a compatible gas burner. They create the appearance of burning wood while operating on natural gas or propane.
Do gas logs produce heat?
Yes, but the amount of usable heat depends on the system. Vented gas logs are generally selected for flame appearance and atmosphere, while vent-free systems typically return more heat to the room. Product selection should be based on the fireplace, room and intended use.
Do I need a chimney for gas logs?
Vented gas logs require an approved fireplace and functioning chimney or venting system. Vent-free gas logs do not use the chimney during operation, but they must meet product, room and local installation requirements.
Can gas logs be installed in any fireplace?
No. The fireplace must have the correct construction, dimensions, clearances, ventilation and fuel supply for the selected system. A professional evaluation is necessary before installation.
Can I put gas logs in a wood-burning fireplace?
In many cases, yes. The fireplace and chimney must first be inspected, and a properly sized gas line and compatible burner system may need to be installed.
Are vented or vent-free gas logs better?
Neither is universally better. Vented gas logs usually offer a taller, more natural-looking flame. Vent-free logs generally provide more supplemental room heat. The right choice depends on your fireplace, priorities and local requirements.
Can gas logs use propane?
Many gas log systems are available for either natural gas or propane. The burner, pilot, valve and related components must be specifically configured for the selected fuel.
Can I control gas logs with a remote?
Many safety-pilot and electronic gas log systems offer remote-control options. Features vary and may include on/off control, variable flame adjustment, thermostat operation or timers.
What size gas logs do I need?
Gas logs are selected using several fireplace measurements, not only the width of the front opening. The rear width, depth, height, gas connection and required clearances must also be considered.
Do gas logs need professional installation?
Professional installation is strongly recommended. Gas connections, burner compatibility, ventilation, log placement and operational testing must all be completed correctly.
How often should gas logs be serviced?
Gas fireplaces and gas log systems should generally be inspected and maintained annually, particularly before the heating season or whenever ignition, flame or performance problems appear.
