Be sure your gas log set is properly sized for your
fireplace. Improper sizing may negatively impact the
proper drafting of the fireplace. Additionally, too large
a log set will adversely affect the burn and hamper
the proper operation of the control system. Too small a
log set will diminish the beauty of your hearth setting.
Figure 1 illustrates the critical dimensions of your
firebox.
This gas log set must be installed by an NFI
Certified or other qualified, professional installer.
The installation, including provisions for combustion
and ventilation air, must conform with local codes, or in
the absence of local codes, with the latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223-1 and NFPA54.
IMPORTANT: To comply with listing and building code acceptances and for safe operation
and proper performance ONLY Peterson parts and accessories may be used with this gas
log set. Robert H. Peterson Co. valves, controls, parts and accessories have been designed,
tested and certified for use with Real-Fyre gas log sets. Use of other controls, parts and
accessories which are not designed for use with Real-Fyre gas log sets is prohibited and
will void all warranties, certifications, listings and building code approvals, and may cause
property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
FIREPLACE REQUIREMENTS
Testing the Gas Supply System: The gas log set
and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply piping system while performing
any tests of the piping system at pressures in excess
of ½ psig. The gas log set must be isolated from the
gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of
the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal
to or less than ½ psig. This is accomplished by closing
the gas supply line valve, which is required by NFPA
54, section 5.54. A fireplace screen must be in place
when the log set is burning. When glass fireplace
doors are used, operate the gas log set with the
doors open.
Your Real-Fyre gas log is to be installed only in a fully
vented, noncombustible fireplace with an open damper.
The chimney must be free of any obstructions. The
fireplace must be designed and approved to burn wood.
The fireplace flue must be at least 8” at its smallest
dimension.
Your fireplace must have a gas supply line that has
been installed by a qualified technician in accordance
with all local codes. The gas supply line must have a
½” minimum interior diameter. If the gas line to your
fireplace is longer than 20’, a larger diameter line may
be necessary.
Be sure to clean your fireplace floor of any ashes or
other foreign materials. It is recommended that the
fireplace and chimney be inspected by a chimney
sweep or other qualified person before you install your
Real-Fyre gas log set.

INSTALLING YOUR REAL-FYRE BURNER SYSTEM
8. Created to provide the maximum in both safety and
durability, your Real-Fyre burner pan is constructed
of high-quality steel and coated with a specially
formulated high-temperature paint to prevent rust.
It is welded securely at all corners and where the
burner pipe passes through the pan to ensure that
gas does not escape. The burner pipe has portholes
that are precisely sized and spaced to ensure
maximum flame height, balance and distribution. It
provides for quick and quiet ignition. The portholes
are facing the bottom of the burner pan, which
prevents granules from clogging the holes and
promotes gas dispersion throughout the burner pan.
13A. Installing your Real-Fyre gas log set (PROPANE)

Connecting the Gas Supply
10. Your burner pan is supplied with an air mixer for
propane gas or a fuel injector for natural gas. The
air mixer or fuel injector must be used in ALL
installations. The air mixer/ fuel injector has a
precisely sized orifice to ensure only the proper
quantity of gas enters the burner. This allows
maximum performance and gas conservation.
a. Attach the large adapter (Item 9a) to the gas
supply stub in your fireplace. Use teflon tape or
pipe compound on the stub. Tighten securely.
b. Attach the smaller adapter (Item 9c) to the fuel
injector or air mixer on the burner pan. Use Teflon
tape or pipe compound. Tighten securely.
11. When installing your log set, use Teflon tape or
pipe compound resistant to the action of
propane gas on all threaded male connections
except brass to brass connections.
2. Your Real-Fyre gas log set is supplied with a
connector kit. The connector kit has been designed
to ensure dependable, reliable performance. The
tubing is sized for optimum gas flow and quiet
operation. The connections are flared for leak-free
operation.
c. Connect the two adapters with the flex tubing.
Tighten both ends securely.
d. Use a long-necked butane lighter, or lay a lighted
match next to the burner pipe, and carefully turn
on the gas supply until the burner ignites.
e. Test for leaks at all connections with a soapy water
solution. Never use an open flame to check for
leaks.
f. Turn off gas supply.
g. Proceed to “Granule Placement” on page 7.
For proper connection and log set placement, the
tubing may be bent manually or with the aid of a
tube bender. Be sure you do not kink the tubing.

For all valves, the air MUST be purged from the gas line before the pilot will light properly. The time taken to do this
will depend on the length of gas line from the meter to the unit and the length of time since the unit or gas line was
last used (in the case of non-use during warm weather for example). It may take from 3-15 minutes before all the

Granule Placement
1. With the burner pan off and properly positioned
in your fireplace, fill the burner pan completely
with the granules. Avoid spilling the granules
on your Peterson control, if one is in place.
2. Slope the granules at the same angle as the burner
pan. This is important to ensure quiet lighting and
even flame distribution.
1. Sprinkle the Real-Fyre ember glow lightly and evenly
over the entire surface of the granules (Figure 9).
For Charred Series log sets see page 9.
Grate Replacement
1. Reposition the grate in your fireplace over the burner
pan. The grate should be as far back in the fireplace
as possible; the back edge of the burner pan should
be approximately at the halfway point of the grate
(Figure 9).

PLACEMENT OF REAL-FYRE GAS LOGS
The beauty and design of your Real-Fyre gas logs
are the result of skilled craftsmanship, research and
engineering. The fine quality materials used to mold
the logs are formulated from kiln-fired ceramics,
superior refractories and the best expanded shales
and aggregates, exactly proportioned. Added to this
material are steel reinforcing rods, precisely sized and
designed to prevent breakage. This creates realistic,
long-lasting logs. Their durability has been proven by
over a half century of use in family homes. Real-Fyre
logs are guaranteed for as long as you own them.
Hairline cracks are common and may appear after the
first use. This will not affect the integrity of the logs
or the operation.
Be sure to provide a minimum of 3” between the
front and rear log (Figure 11). This will create the
energy efficiency and heat radiating effect of the log
set and will also reduce carbon buildup.

Each log is skillfully designed and crafted to duplicate
natural wood. Deep, rugged bark textures and handpainted highlighting challenges the viewer to tell
whether they’re looking at real wood logs or Real-Fyre
logs. Knotholes, branch stubs and peeled-away bark
in many styles also add to the realism of your RealFyre gas log set.
4. Top logs should be placed diagonally with space
between the logs so that the flames are not choked
off. Top logs may be moved to achieve the desired
flame pattern. Some carbon buildup (sooting) may
be observed where the flames impinge on the logs.
Unless the sooting is excessive, this should not
be a concern. If sooting is excessive, rearrange
the top logs so there is less flame impingement.
Examples of log stacks are shown in Figure 12.

the log arrangement, it is necessary to follow the
log placement instructions carefully to fully enjoy
your log set.

2. The longest log is placed on the front of the grate
with the bark of the log facing forward. If you have
a heat chamber built into your log style, it should
be facing the rear of the fireplace (Figure 10).
3. The second longest log (Item No. 2) is placed on
the rear of the grate with the bark of the log facing
forward. If you have a heat chamber built into your
log style, it can face forward or to the rear of the
fireplace as you desire.

TECHNICAL DATA AND SPECIFICATION INFORMATION
Maintenance
3. Debris around the control - Inspect the control
and pilot to be sure it is free of any dirt or debris.
Once installed and operating properly, your RealFyre gas log set requires very little maintenance.
You should inspect your log set and control annually
for the following:
1. Excessive Sooting - Some sooting of your log
set is normal and adds to the appearance of
burned wood. If sooting accumulates, you may
brush the soot off with a stiff brush. Do not use
water or soot cleaners to clean off the soot.
2. Settling of Ember Glow and Granules - Moisture
may cause the granules and ember glow in your
burner pan to settle and affect your burn. Using
a screwdriver or flat blade knife, carefully
stir the granules and embers, loosening the
materials.
Service
While some minor service conditions may
be handled by the owner of the log set, it is
recommended that a qualified service technician be
called to service your gas log set and control should
service be required. The troubleshooting section of
these instructions serves as a guide for ensuring
optimum performance of your gas log set.
