Real Fyre Gnarled Split Oak — Homeowner Guide
The Real Fyre Gnarled Split Oak is designed for a rugged, natural fire with twisted wood textures and a more irregular, realistic log structure. Inspired by naturally aged split oak, this set creates a dynamic flame pattern with depth and variation, making it ideal for homeowners who want a less uniform, more authentic wood-fire appearance. Designed for vented wood-burning fireplaces, it delivers a strong flame presence with a balanced ember bed and natural log spacing.

3. Important: Your Gas Type

4. Fitment Guide (Minimum Fireplace Dimensions)
If your measurements are within 1 inch of the minimums below, do not go up a size. It is always better to choose the next size down to ensure proper airflow and prevent overheating your gas valves.

5. Need a Custom Setup?
If your fireplace is shallower than required, is a see-through or peninsula setup, or is uniquely shaped, this standard system may not perform correctly. We carry specialized burner systems designed for these situations—use the chat and we’ll help you build the correct setup.
