Our approach to gas logs in Parramore
Useful to know before you approve a log set for your Parramore fireplace.
An ash lip or recess at the firebox front
Some fireboxes have a raised lip or a dropped recess just inside the opening. One log set maker does not allow its burner in a fireplace where that lip or recess is deeper than 3/4 inch.
The same manual measures the firebox depth from inside the lip, so a lip can make a deep-looking firebox too shallow on paper. Our installers measure the lip and the true depth before choosing a burner size.
No wood fires once a vent-free set is in
A vent-free set turns a wood-burning fireplace into a gas appliance for good. One manual says solid fuels shall not be burned in a fireplace in which an unvented room heater is installed, and that the heater must not be used as a wood-burning heater.
The same manual says to use only the logs provided and never to place objects in the heater or on the logs. If you still want an occasional wood fire, our specialists explain what that means for the choice of set.
Choosing a burner size for the firebox
A bigger burner is not a better fire if the fireplace is too small for it. One maker lists a fireplace too small for the unit among the causes of a burner shutting down during operation, and its fix is to meet the minimum size requirements.
Our pros choose the burner by the firebox measurements first and the look second. When two sizes fit, we explain the difference in flame, gas use and damper opening so you can pick with the facts.
Keeping burner ports and air passages clean
Dust, lint and fallen media find their way into a burner. One maker says all control compartments, burners, air shutters and air passageways must be kept clean and free of obstructions.
The same manual also calls for periodic examination and cleaning of the fireplace venting system by a qualified professional. Our service visits cover both, the burner in the firebox and the flue above it.
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.

Asked in Parramore about installing gas logs
Thinking about gas logs? Start here, and remember the fireplace inspection in Parramore is free.
Can a vent-free log set go in a bedroom?
One vent-free manual says its heater shall not be installed in a bedroom or bathroom. The Florida fuel gas code allows only small wall-mounted unvented heaters in those rooms, under strict conditions. We recommend a different option for a bedroom fireplace.
What makes gas logs turn black?
Steady black soot on the logs is a sign of incomplete combustion. One maker says to move the affected logs so flames touch them less, following the placement diagram. If the soot keeps coming back, have the set checked.
