Vented gas logs give you the look of a real wood fire without the hauling, stacking, or cleanup. Our technicians install vented gas log sets in your existing fireplace, connect the gas supply, and confirm the flue is drafting the way it should before we leave. Every installation is done with safety first and in line with local codes.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between vented and ventless gas logs?
Vented gas logs burn with a tall, realistic yellow flame and send combustion byproducts up the chimney, so the damper stays open during use. Ventless logs burn cleaner but release heat and byproducts into the room. Vented sets are the closer match to a real wood fire, and they require a working flue, which is exactly what our installation process verifies.
Can vented gas logs go in any fireplace?
Vented gas logs are designed for fireplaces with a functioning chimney or flue, typically existing wood-burning fireplaces. Before installing, we inspect the firebox, damper, and flue to confirm everything can vent properly. If the chimney needs attention first, we will tell you exactly what and why before any work begins.
Do vented gas logs put out much heat?
Vented gas logs are chosen mainly for ambiance. Because the damper stays open, a portion of the heat goes up the chimney along with the exhaust. They still warm the room you are in, but if maximum heat output is your priority, ask our team about other options during your visit so you get the right fit for your home.
