Superior Golden Oak: light ceramic fiber vent-free logs that glow like charred wood
The Superior Golden Oak is a vent-free gas log set that fits in the fireplace you already have. The logs are made of ceramic fiber, which is light and porous. When flames move across them, they glow orange, like logs that have burned down to coals. Two rows of yellow flames dance between the logs. The logs come in lengths of 18 or 24 inches, and the set puts out up to 36,000 BTU. Pick the size on the page.
Vent-free means you can run it with the damper closed, so nearly all the heat stays in the room. It keeps heating when the power is out because the burner needs no electricity. The burner is not included. On the page you pick the log size, the fuel, and the burner. Order it for natural gas or propane. The manual burner has a knob that turns the flame up and down. The millivolt burner is remote ready, so you can add an on and off remote, a thermostat remote, or a wall switch. Check your local code first, since some areas restrict vent-free heaters. Prefer heavier concrete logs? See the Superior Crescent Hill vent-free gas log set. The Superior Golden Oak ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
How are the Golden Oak logs different from the Crescent Hill sets?
They are ceramic fiber rather than concrete: lighter logs that glow like charred wood when the flames play across them, which the Features tab notes as their realism advantage. Everything else is the Double-Flame platform: 18 or 24 in sizes, two rows of yellow flames, 99 percent efficiency and a manual or millivolt burner.
Is the burner included?
The burner is a required choice on the Burner selector after size and fuel: Manual with variable high-low flame control, or Millivolt, which is remote-ready for the remotes, wall thermostat and switch on the Accessories row. The listing price is the log set alone.
How much heat and what fireplace size?
36,000 down to 19,000 BTU for both sizes. Minimum fireplace width is 24 in for the 18 in set and 28 in for the 24 in set, with 17 in of height and 13-1/2 in of depth per the Specifications tab. Size the input to the room with the burner manual’s ventilation-air calculation. See more Superior gas logs.
Can it be used in a vented fireplace?
Yes. It runs vent-free with the damper closed for full heat, and is also listed for vented use with the damper clamp from the Accessories row keeping the damper open. Vent-free use depends on local code and on the room supplying ventilation air per the manual.
Natural gas or propane?
Both, on the Fuel Type selector; the Burner row then shows the natural gas or propane version of the Manual or Millivolt burner at the same price so the correct burner ships. There is no conversion kit on this listing, so confirm your fuel before ordering; the Golden Oak ceramic fiber logs themselves are the same for either gas.
Does it need electricity?
No. Both burner versions use a standing pilot, so the Golden Oak set lights and heats with no household power, which the description highlights for power outages. Optional remotes on the millivolt burner use their own batteries.
