Gas Log Sets
If you have a gas fireplace in your home or building then it’s probably going to have a gas log set that can be changed out or replaced. The right gas log sets can add more function to your fireplace and help you achieve the right “look” for your interior decorating.
Gas Log Sets are divided into two categories. There are Vented gas log sets and then un-vented or vent free log sets. Both of these options have their own advantages and disadvantages. Before you make the final choice with a new gas log set it’s always best to contact a professional fireplace specialist.
