Birmingham Wood Fireplace
Bring timeless warmth and authentic charm home with the Birmingham Wood Fireplace from Chicagoland Fireplace & Chimney Restoration. Classic styling, powerful performance, and lasting durability.

The C8 Double Burner offers a refined balance between flame output, glowing embers, and heat distribution—making it an ideal system for showcasing Oak or Birch gas log sets. With two burner tubes running parallel, this setup creates wide flame coverage that curls around the logs, generating a fuller, more immersive visual experience. When combined with richly textured oak or delicately detailed birch logs, the C8 brings out the best of both materials—adding life, depth, and warmth to any fireplace.
This burner is built for vented installations and is most commonly used by homeowners who want a fireplace that looks like it has always been part of the home. Oak logs offer a timeless, firewood aesthetic with medium-to-dark bark tones and robust log shapes. Birch logs, on the other hand, bring a lighter, Scandinavian-inspired charm, with their white bark and natural striations. Whichever log type is selected, the C8 Double Burner delivers a strong ember bed and flickering flames that mimic the natural progression of a wood fire.
Pairing the C8 Double Burner with Oak or Birch logs allows for exceptional flexibility across a wide range of design styles. For a traditional fireplace feel, Oak logs are an easy match with brick hearths, stone surrounds, and heavy mantels. They lend visual weight and historical authenticity to any room. In contrast, Birch logs give off a brighter, airier impression—perfect for modern farmhouse interiors or transitional spaces with white or gray tones.
The dual-flame system provides a consistent base that allows either log set to stand out. Add decorative ember beds, reflective fire media, or charcoal-toned crushed rock to add dimension at the base. Birch logs shine in minimal settings where color contrast and bark texture become focal points. Oak logs fit beautifully in dens, great rooms, or cabins where the fireplace acts as a central architectural anchor.
The C8 Double Burner is engineered to deliver consistent performance while elevating the appearance of any log set it supports. Made from durable, heat-resistant materials, the burner is built to handle extended use over time. Its design ensures that flame coverage is evenly distributed across the logs, providing a natural, enveloping look that feels genuine—whether viewed head-on or from across the room.
It is available in various sizes and configurations, and can be combined with match-lit or electronic ignition options, giving homeowners flexibility depending on their installation. When used in tandem with vented gas fireplace systems, the C8 provides beautiful flame action, supplemental heat, and a long-lasting ember glow. It’s a dependable, visually rich solution for anyone seeking a fireplace centerpiece that honors tradition with modern convenience.
