GAS LOG PLACEMENT
The beauty and design of the Real-Fyre
®
gas logs
are the result of skilled craftsmanship, research, and
engineering. The fi ne-quality materials used to mold
the logs are formulated from kiln-fi red ceramics,
superior refractories, and the best expanded shales
and aggregates, all exactly proportioned. Added to this
material are steel reinforcing rods, precisely sized and
designed to prevent breakage. This creates realistic,
long-lasting logs. Their durability has been proven by
over a half century of use in family homes. Real-Fyre
®
logs are guaranteed for as long as you own them.
Hairline cracks are common and may appear after the
fi rst use. This will not affect the integrity of the logs or
the operation.
Each log is skillfully designed and crafted to duplicate
natural wood. Deep, rugged bark textures and hand-
painted highlighting challenge the viewer to tell whether
they are looking at real wood logs or Real-Fyre
®
logs.
Knotholes, branch stubs, and peeled-away bark in
many styles also add to the realism of the Real-Fyre
®
gas log set.
DESIGNER AND CLASSIC SERIES LOG
PLACEMENT
(For Charred Series log sets, see the following
page.)
1. Log placement is very important for the proper
operation and performance of the Real-Fyre
®
gas log set. Although you have some fl exibility in
the log arrangement, it is necessary to follow the
log placement instructions carefully to fully enjoy
the log set.
2. The second-longest log (Item #2) is placed on the
rear of the grate with the bark of the log facing
forward. If you have a heat chamber built into the
log style, it can face forward or to the rear of the
fi replace as you desire.
4. The top logs should be placed diagonally with
space between the logs so that the fl ames are
not choked off. Top logs may be moved to achieve
the desired fl ame pattern. Some carbon buildup
(sooting) may be observed where the fl ames
impinge on the logs.
Unless the sooting is excessive, this should not
be a concern. If sooting is excessive, rearrange
the top logs so there is less fl ame impingement.
Examples of log stacks are shown in Fig. 11-2.

3. The longest log (Item #1) is placed on the front of
the grate with the bark of the log facing forward.
If you have a heat chamber built into the log style,
it should be facing the rear of the fi replace (Fig.
11-1).
Be sure to provide a minimum of 3" between the
front and rear log (Fig. 11-1). This will create the
energy effi ciency and heat-radiating effect of the log
set and will also reduce carbon buildup.
