Real Fyre Charred Aged Split Oak: vent free gas logs with a burned through front log
The Real Fyre Charred Aged Split Oak is a vent free gas log set. The logs copy weathered split oak with charred wood detail. The burned through front log lets the ember bed and its glowing coals show through. It is vent free, which means the burner burns clean enough to run with the damper closed, so the heat stays in the room. It still goes inside a real fireplace, and vent free logs are not allowed everywhere, so check your local code first. It comes in 16, 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 G10 burner, plain or stainless steel. You also pick how it lights: with a manual control, with a remote that sets the flame height, or with that remote plus electronic ignition. A Fyreback, a steel panel that stands behind the fire, is optional. For another look on the same burner, see the Real Fyre Charred Frontier Oak vent free gas log set. The Real Fyre Charred Aged Split Oak ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What is the burnt-through front log on this set?
It is the G10 series signature: the front log is sculpted as if the fire has eaten clear through it, exposing a glowing hollow that flickers with the ember bed behind. On the Charred Aged Split Oak, that pairs with weathered split-wood detail, so the stack reads as a fire well into its evening.
How do ventless gas logs work?
The burner is engineered to combust gas so completely that it needs no flue: it draws air from the room, and nearly all of the energy returns to the room as heat. The G10 adds a large ember bed with Bryte Coals and a lively flame pattern on top of that heater core.
How can I tell if a log set is vented or ventless?
Check the burner designation. Real Fyre vent-free systems, like this set’s G10, carry an oxygen depletion sensor and a fixed, safety-certified log placement, while vented sets pair with open burners meant for a working flue. On an unknown existing set, the rating plate or manual settles it; never guess.
Can a ventless set go into a regular vented fireplace?
Yes. Installing a vent-free set inside a working masonry or prefab fireplace is common, and you may keep the damper shut to hold heat in the room. The reverse is the dangerous direction: a vented-only log set must never run in an unvented firebox. Local codes have the final word either way.
Which sizes do the CHAS charred oak logs come in?
Three: CHAS-16/18 for compact fireboxes, CHAS-24, and CHAS-30. It is one of four log styles offered on the G10 platform, alongside the Charred Frontier Oak, Charred Alpine Birch, and Charred Gnarled Split, so the same burner footprint supports several different looks.
Why does a ventless fireplace sometimes smell?
Because it breathes room air, a vent-free burner will announce whatever is in that air: dust after a summer off, pet dander, candle residue, fresh paint. A clean set in a clean room should produce very little odor. Vacuum the logs and ember bed each season; the whole Real Fyre vent-free line follows the same routine.
Is this set natural gas or propane?
The G10 burner is built for one fuel or the other at the factory. You choose natural gas or liquid propane when ordering, matched to your supply, and there is no field conversion, so double-check which line feeds your hearth before you buy.
