Real Fyre American Oak See Thru: a vented gas log set for two rooms
The Real Fyre American Oak See Thru is a vented gas log set for a fireplace that opens into two rooms. The logs copy split American oak with deep grain. Their weathered look suits a shared living and dining space. It is made for a see through fireplace, one that opens into two rooms, and the logs are finished on both sides so both rooms get the same fire. It is a vented set, so it needs a real fireplace with a working chimney and burns with the damper open. You get the tallest and most natural flames, and most of the heat goes up the chimney. It comes in 18, 24, or 30 inch sets. Measure your firebox at the front, at the back, and front to back, and if you land between two sizes, take the smaller set.
Each log is molded from a real piece of wood, cast in a ceramic made for high heat with a steel rod inside, and painted by hand. The price is for the logs only. On the page you pick natural gas or propane and add the G45-2 see through burner, in plain or stainless steel. You also pick how it lights: by hand with a match on natural gas, with a knob and a pilot light that stays lit, or with a remote. A Fyreback, a steel panel that stands behind the fire, is optional.

FAQ
Why pick the AO-2 for a fireplace that opens into two spaces?
The AO-2 was sculpted for dual-opening fireboxes, with its weathered split-oak character finished on every visible surface. In a divider-style fireplace between a living room and a dining area, each side gets a complete, intentional log picture instead of staring at the plain rear of a one-sided stack.
Does the flame look right from both openings?
Yes, because the AO-2 rides on the G45-2, a see-thru burner offered in standard or stainless steel that spreads its flame for two viewing faces. Combined with oak logs detailed front and back, the fire keeps the same depth and movement whichever room you happen to be watching it from.
What widths are available for this see-thru oak?
The run covers 18, 24, and 30-inch sets, SKUs AO-2-18 through AO-2-30. Because a dual-sided firebox is approached from opposite directions, confirm the opening width on both faces before choosing. The broader range of Real Fyre vented gas logs covers single-sided fireboxes in additional widths.
Is the stack arranged differently in a see-thru installation?
The principle is the same, follow the placement diagram, but symmetry matters more. The AO-2 layout positions the main logs so neither face reads as the back of the fire, and the crossers must not block burner ports on either side. Photograph the finished arrangement so reassembly after cleaning is painless.
Does a two-sided firebox change the venting rules?
No. The AO-2 is a vented set from either side of the wall: the damper stays open whenever it runs, and the flue carries combustion products away exactly as it would over a single-opening fireplace. It must never be operated as though it were a vent-free product.
Can this set be run from a remote?
Remote operation is a valve-and-burner decision rather than a log decision. Order the AO-2’s G45-2 burner with electronic ignition or a remote-ready valve and you can start, stop, and adjust flame height from across the room; a match-lit configuration keeps things simple and manual instead.
What if my fireplace only opens on one side?
Then the standard American Oak set is the smarter buy. The AO-2’s mirrored detailing and two-sided G45-2 burner exist specifically for fireboxes that are open front and back; in a conventional fireplace you would be paying for a second show face that nobody can ever see.
