We would like to have vented gas log set in fireplace. I've seen a few that look very real while out and about. I went to a dealership and looked at their offereings. they all seemed pretty fake looking (the logs, I mean) The flame looked good on all the different manufacturers, but the logs didnt look as real as I had hoped.

What company makes the most realistic logs for Vented Gas logs? .

the fireplace is a real fireplace capable of buring wood. The hearth box is 36" wide and stays pretty wide as it gets deeper into the firebox.

thanks!
 
Living in New Hampshire, you'd be better off with an insert that will heat your house. A vented gas log set will send all your fuel dollars right up your chimney.
A DV gas insert can be used as a single room heater, or worst case will heat a portion of your home in a power outage. That being said, I always liked the looks of the Petersen Logs Sets:

YMMV...
