Gas Fireplaces: Remote Control Flames

Reviewed by:

Rekindle this old flame with nothing more than a remote control. These gas logs produce up to 65,000 BTUs, using a remote-controlled milli-volt gas valve, so no electricity is needed for start-up or operation.

A ceramic burner system (complete with charcoal embers) creates a flickering flame that replicates the real deal. The set includes cast-iron andirons and grate.

Gas log sizes are 18", 24" and 30". Offered in natural gas or LP. (Vent required.)

Price range is $545 (18") to $755 (30") (October 2005).
