Discover The Convenience Of Gas Logs

By Miranda Sweeney


It is snowing outside and you are already in a very comfortable position reading in the couch. Moments later, you do not feel warm anymore. Then you knew, the fire is dying so you get up and add more wood. Then you go back to the couch and resume your reading. Moments later, the fire is dying again and you have to get up and add more wood before you go back and read again. You do that again later and the cycle goes on and on.

A wonderful solution to these lazy days are gas logs Dallas. These are widely used as substitute to real firewood across US in providing warmth for the home without the hassle of starting and maintaining a fire. All it takes is a click in the remote. These come in two types, vented and unvented.

Vented logs is the more realistic among the two types. It burns a yellow flame, typical with that of a wood fire burning. Also, there are glowing embers that add to the effect and that which makes it more realistic.

However, there is a down side to this. Vented logs, as much closer to reality as it looks, only provide ten percent of the heat it generates to the house. The rest is exhausted outside the house through the chimney. It is not the ideal kind of log set for people who are really looking for enough warmth in their home.

On the other hand, the unvented type, even with the yellow flame and glowing embers, do not look as much realistic as the former. However, the efficiency of these type exceeds that of the vented, nine times over. Almost ninety five percent of the heat is returned to the house.

As vented logs represent the looks, the unvented represent the heat a real wood fire can provide. Although to provide warmth is the primary function of the unvented type, this can pose a threat to safety. Because of the degree of heat this log set is able to provide, any object that is capable of burning that is within the range of the set can potentially cause fire. Because of this, precautionary measures should be observed all the times.

People with asthma or weak lungs might also suffer from the effects of this. One potential danger of this log type is that it causes the oxygen level to drop and another is that it expels a weird odor. However, you need not worry because this type has a built in sensor that will detect when the oxygen level reaches a critical level. If it happens, the sensor will then shut down the power.

Although the unvented type pose more potential danger than the vented, it is the ideal type of gas logs that will provide more heat for your home. However, it all depends on your needs. If the heating system in your home is running perfectly fine and you just need something that will complete the atmosphere, the vented one will do. However, if your purpose is to really make your house cozy and warm, the unvented one will do the job best.

With winter just round the corner, make sure you will be able to stay warm while sipping that cup of coffee and reading that good book, without disturbances. Just put the remote for the gas logs in the table next to you and you are ready for a cozy and relaxing afternoon ahead.
