Vent Free Gas Logs are ventless and good for people who have an existing fireplaces but seldom use it, a set may be the best way to have dancing fire at your fingertips. Provide dramatic realism, from the lifelike ceramic fiber hand painted down to the glow. The real revolution occurred when engineers figured out a way to produce a yellow flame and glowing embers with these sets, while still achieving a clean burn. Many folks are curious how you can burn a fuel in the house and have little or no effect on the air quality in the home. The easiest way to understand is to use your Kitchen Range as an example. A range uses a special burner design to achieve a clean, smokeless flame. Vent free gas logs use a similar technology.
Being Vent Free the damper can remain closed and high degree of efficiency is achieved over 99% because you are free of an open vent removing the heat from the room . The small amount of carbon dioxide and water vapor released into the house (as a by-product of the combustion) is well under the current Federal guidelines. Unvented logs are also economical to use. They burn a rates from 10,000 BTU/Hr to 40,000 BTU/HR which costs from 6 cents to 30 cents per hour (Natural Fuel) to 10 cents to 50 cents per hour (LP). These logs do have yellow flames and glowing embers, but they do not look as real as the Vented Logs. This is due to the smaller BTU rating and the clean burning design.
