Not for every room
Vent-free gas logs are limited in where they may go, and one maker names bedrooms and bathrooms among the rooms to avoid. Local rules can go further, and some areas do not allow vent-free heaters at all. Guest rooms that double as bedrooms count as bedrooms for this purpose.
Room use and local rules are checked before a vent-free set is chosen, and where either says no, a vented set is the answer. Fireplace in a bedroom at your Sawgrass house? Ask which gas log options fit at (904) 920-5495.

From wood fireplace to gas logs in Sawgrass
-
Measure firebox and room
Firebox, chimney height and, for vent-free sets, the room are checked against the manual.
-
Clean and clamp
Soot and debris come out of the fireplace, and vented sets get their permanent damper clamp.
-
Connect and test
Once gas reaches the valve, the set is connected, leak tested and its pressure read.
-
Place logs and light
Logs and embers go where the manual shows, and we light the set with you.
Coastal homes and vent-free logs in Sawgrass
Vent-free logs add water vapor to the room. In a coastal home in Sawgrass, as anywhere, a room that already feels damp is a poor match for them.
We weigh the room's air before recommending vent-free.

Gas log installs in Sawgrass come 10% off, with the logs placed to the maker's diagram.
Water vapor from vent-free logs
Water is one product of burning gas, and with no vent it stays in the room. One vent-free maker estimates roughly an ounce of water per 1,000 Btu of input each hour, and cautions that a poorly ventilated room can grow mildew.
The same maker suggests sizing the set properly for the room, using a dehumidifier where humidity is high, and not relying on the set as the main heat. We weigh this with you, since a room that already runs damp is a poor match for vent-free logs. Rooms that already fog their windows are a poor match.
Minimum firebox size for a vented set
Log set burners come in sizes, and each needs a big enough firebox. One maker's vented burner in its smallest size needs a fireplace at least 26 inches wide at the front, 20 at the rear, 15 deep and 17 high, and its larger sizes need more.
The rear width is measured at the depth the burner needs, and where the fireplace has a front lip, the depth is measured from inside it. We measure your firebox at those points and set the numbers against the table for the set you like, before anything is ordered.
The gas on the rating plate
Each log set is built for one fuel, and its rating plate names it. One vented burner's manual states that it is not field convertible for use with other gases, and says not to install it if the house's gas differs from the plate.
Some vent-free sets are built to run on either gas, shipped set for propane and converted to natural gas by the installer following the maker's instructions. We read the plate before installation and make sure the set matches the gas at the house, since a mismatch is not something to adjust around.
Firebox, room and damper on paper
- Damper clamp fitted permanently and the opening measured
- Supply pipe sized by the gas trade, with inlet pressure read at the valve
- Glass doors and frame checked for airflow and opening size
- Outside air ducts and ash doors closed off under vent-free sets
Gas log questions from Sawgrass
Can I convert my log set to propane?
It depends on the set. Some are not convertible in the field at all, and others convert with the maker's instructions. The rating plate and manual decide.
Can I burn wood with the gas logs in place?
No. The logs and burner are not built for a wood fire, and one vent-free maker bans solid fuel in a fireplace with its set installed.
