The CrossFire Vented Gas Logs collection delivers an exceptional flame experience that recreates the look and feel of a natural wood-burning fire. Engineered for open-vent fireplaces, this system provides wide, full-bodied flames with radiant heat output and lifelike movement. At Chicagoland Fireplace & Chimney Restoration, we offer vented gas log systems designed for maximum realism, durability, and consistent performance — giving homeowners the beauty of a classic fire with modern reliability.
The CrossFire system features a specially designed burner that directs flames across multiple angles to simulate the random flicker of a true wood fire. This innovative design produces depth and dimension within the firebox, allowing flames to flow naturally between, over, and around the logs. The result is a visually captivating display that enhances both warmth and authenticity in any traditional fireplace setting.
Each log in the CrossFire set is individually molded from real wood specimens to capture intricate bark texture, grain, and natural splits. Skilled artisans hand-paint every piece with attention to tone, shading, and charring — ensuring that every log looks genuine, even up close. When the system is in use, the interplay between glowing embers, soft shadows, and bright flames creates a rich, natural fire aesthetic that fills the room with comfort and ambiance.
The vented configuration allows for full combustion and unrestricted flame movement, producing tall, lively fire patterns and realistic color variation. The system’s design promotes clean airflow while safely venting exhaust through the chimney. This setup is ideal for homeowners who value flame realism and don’t require vent-free heat efficiency — offering a traditional fire experience with modern engineering precision.
Built from high-quality refractory ceramic materials and stainless steel components, the CrossFire system is designed for reliability under continuous high-temperature conditions. The refractory logs resist cracking and fading, while the burner assembly provides consistent gas flow and corrosion resistance. Together, these components ensure a long-lasting, safe, and visually stunning fireplace experience.
At Chicagoland Fireplace & Chimney Restoration, we install and calibrate each CrossFire system for proper venting, flame height, and balance. Our technicians ensure the log arrangement complements your fireplace’s dimensions while maintaining safety and performance standards. From setup to testing, every step is handled with precision — ensuring the perfect combination of beauty, efficiency, and reliability.
