Ventless gas-log question(s)
Previous owner claims 2 gas-log units in the house are 'ventless'. I
can't find a manu. name/part no./mode no./ on these darn things and am hoping to at least verify they are indeed ventless. I've been told that the very light thin-ceramic-over-fiberglass logs are a sign of a 'ventless' unit. Any other thoughts? Has anyone ever seen a ventless unit installed into a woodstove? I've heard ventless units have a CO2 detector built-in. Is this true? If true, when did they start doing this? Also, has anyone ever been able to find replacement logs? Some in my unit are cracked/broken. And last, a rant: how can a gas-log unit not have a manufacturer's name clearly stated on it? Maybe if I disconnect the gas line and look under the thing... Dave |

Dave The list of manufactures that do not label their products is long and growing. I have never seen a ventless set of logs with a CO detector. To many variables, seek local professional help. |

You should ask your gas supplier to perform a service check. ==== |
