How we handle gas log installation in Florida Center
What our gas log specialists explain to homeowners in Florida Center before a set is ordered.
Sand for natural gas, vermiculite for propane
The loose material in a burner pan spreads the gas and shapes the flame. One maker's vented sets use sand on natural gas and vermiculite on propane, with glowing embers placed on top.
Using the wrong media for the gas type is on the same manual's list of causes for a low flame, and media packed down too tightly can make a burner light unevenly. Our installers use the media your set specifies and spread it the way the manual shows.
Fans, drafts and flame patterns
A vent-free flame is sensitive to moving air. One manual warns not to let fans blow directly into the fireplace and to avoid any drafts that alter the burner's flame pattern, and it rules out installing the heater in high traffic, windy or drafty areas.
Ceiling fans, air conditioning registers and doors to the patio can all send air across a firebox. Our crew looks at what moves air around your fireplace and suggests simple changes when a flame is being pushed around.
Supply pressure the burner needs
A burner needs gas at the right pressure to light and run properly. One maker wants at least 5 inches of water column at the inlet on natural gas and at least 11 on propane, with ceilings of 10.5 and 13.
The same manual says not to install the set if the minimum pressure is not available, since low pressure affects the pilot. Our technicians measure the pressure at the set with the burner running and note the reading in your record.
Flames that start behaving strangely
A set that has run well for a while can change. One maker says that if the flames start to take unusual shapes or the burners fail to ignite smoothly, the burner may need cleaning or servicing.
Our technicians clean the burner and pilot, check the media and log positions and test the pressure. If the problem is a worn part, the estimate names it and shows whether a repair or a new set is the better value.
Keeping the hearth clear
One log set manual asks owners to keep the area around the burner clear of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. Holiday decorations, stacked magazines and stored paint cans all count.
A vent-free manual adds that curtains, furniture, clothing and other flammable objects must stay at least 42 inches from the front, top and sides of the heater. Our crew points out anything too close during every visit.

Asked in Florida Center about installing gas logs
Our gas log team in Florida Center answers the usual questions here. Call about anything else.
Can I still burn wood after gas logs go in?
No. One vent-free manual says solid fuels shall not be burned in a fireplace where an unvented heater is installed, and the same manual says not to burn paper or other objects in it. The log set becomes the fire.
Is the gas log inspection in Florida Center really free?
Yes. We measure and check the fireplace and write up the estimate at no charge, with no obligation. If you go ahead within 72 hours after the inspection, 10% comes off.
