Important: 24" Weathered Oak Gas Logs Only – Burner Not Included
The VFWO24 listing is for the Weathered Oak refractory gas logs only. A compatible Grand Canyon Vulcan Vent Less 24/30 burner system is required and sold separately.
Hand-Painted Weathered Oak Styling for the Vulcan Vent Less System
The VFWO24 is designed for homeowners who want the appearance of naturally weathered and charred oak without burning real wood.
Each log is individually cast and hand-painted to reproduce irregular bark texture, natural color variation, aged surfaces, and the character of real firewood.
The refractory construction is engineered to withstand repeated fireplace use and retain heat from the compatible gas burner system.
Compatibility first: The VFWO24 is not a universal gas-log replacement. It is engineered specifically around the approved Grand Canyon Vulcan Vent Less 24/30 burner platform.

Why Choose the Grand Canyon Weathered Oak VFWO24?
Weathered Oak Appearance
Hand-painted detailing recreates aged bark, realistic wood coloration, and naturally weathered character.
Heavy-Duty Refractory Construction
High-temperature refractory materials are designed for repeated fireplace exposure.
Individually Cast Logs
Separate sculpted pieces create greater depth than a single molded log structure.
Vulcan-Specific Geometry
The log shapes and placement pattern are engineered around the compatible 24/30 Vulcan Vent Less burner.
Radiant Heat Retention
The refractory material absorbs burner heat and radiates warmth back into the fireplace area.
Protected Outdoor Capability
The complete system may be installed outdoors only when protected from direct exposure to the elements.
What's Included with the VFWO24?
The VFWO24 package contains the refractory Weathered Oak log components required for the manufacturer's 24-inch front-view layout.
Rear Log
Forms the rear foundation of the 24-inch arrangement.
Front Log
Forms the front foundation of the log presentation.
Left Log
Occupies the designated left-side position.
Left Middle Log
Creates depth in the left-center of the log layout.
Middle Log
Occupies the central portion of the stack.
Right Middle Log
Balances the layout on the right-center side.

Compatible Grand Canyon Vulcan Vent Less Burner System
The VFWO24 is designed for the Grand Canyon Vulcan Vent Less 24/30-inch burner platform.
Compatibility rule: Do not substitute an unrelated burner. Incorrect burner and log combinations can interfere with proper flame patterns and combustion.
Available 24/30 Vulcan Burner Control Systems
Minimum Fireplace Size for the 24" VFWO24 Configuration
When used with the compatible 24/30 Vulcan burner, the 24-inch Weathered Oak configuration requires all of the following minimum firebox dimensions:
| Log Size |
Front Width |
Rear Width |
Depth |
Height |
| 24" |
28" Minimum |
20" Minimum |
14" Minimum |
18" Minimum |
These are fireplace dimensions, not log dimensions. The firebox must satisfy all four measurements.
How to Measure Before Ordering
Front Width
Measure the usable width across the front fireplace opening.
Rear Width
Measure the usable width at the rear of the firebox.
Depth
Measure usable firebox depth from front to back.
Height
Measure the usable fireplace opening height.
Do not size from front width alone: Many fireplaces taper toward the rear, so rear width and depth are equally important.
Compatible Vulcan Burner BTU Output
BTU ratings belong to the compatible burner system rather than the VFWO24 refractory logs themselves.
| Fuel |
Low Setting |
High Setting |
| Natural Gas |
19,000 BTU/hr |
37,000 BTU/hr |
| Propane |
19,000 BTU/hr |
37,000 BTU/hr |
Heating application: Grand Canyon describes the complete vent-free appliance as supplemental heating.
Natural Gas or Propane – Choose the Correct Vulcan Burner
The VFWO24 logs themselves do not determine fuel type. Fuel compatibility comes from the separately purchased Vulcan burner.
Natural Gas
Select the Vulcan burner specifically manufactured for Natural Gas when the installation supply is NG.
Propane / LP
Select the dedicated Propane version when the installation supply is LP.
No field conversion: Grand Canyon states that the vent-free burner appliance is configured for either Natural Gas or Propane and may not be field-converted.
Oxygen Depletion Sensing Safety Pilot
Compatible Vulcan Vent Less burners use an Oxygen Depletion Sensing (ODS) safety pilot.
Grand Canyon states that the ODS monitors available room oxygen and shuts the burner system down before oxygen falls below 18%.
ODS does not replace ventilation: The complete installation still requires adequate room volume, combustion air, ventilation, and compliance with manufacturer instructions and applicable codes.
Vent-Free & Vented Installation Capability
ANSI Z21.11.2
The compatible Vulcan burner is certified as an unvented room heater for qualifying installations.
ANSI Z21.60
The compatible burner can also be installed as a vented decorative appliance according to the manufacturer's applicable requirements.
Local regulations matter: State and local codes may restrict or prohibit vent-free operation. Verify requirements before purchasing or installing the complete system.
Approved Fireplace Types
The complete VFWO24 and Vulcan burner system may be installed only in qualifying fireplace applications identified by Grand Canyon.
Masonry Fireplace
Qualifying solid-fuel-burning masonry fireplace.
UL 127 Factory-Built Fireplace
Factory-built fireplace whose instructions permit the installation.
Listed Ventless Firebox
Listed ventless firebox enclosure meeting Grand Canyon requirements.
Do not install the system in a factory-built fireplace whose instructions state that it has not been tested or should not be used with unvented gas logs.
24" Weathered Oak Log Placement
Proper log placement is essential because the VFWO24 logs and compatible Vulcan burner are engineered to work together as one tested system.
The bottoms of individual logs include positioning features designed to align with the burner and surrounding logs.
Correct Installation
- Use the dedicated 24" Weathered Oak / Red Oak placement diagram.
- Seat each log in the designated position.
- Maintain the manufacturer-defined flame pathways.
- Make sure every log is stable.
- Periodically confirm that the logs have not shifted.
- Correct any log movement before continued operation.
Do Not
- Create a custom log arrangement.
- Move logs simply to change the appearance.
- Block the intended flame pathways.
- Allow improper flame impingement.
- Ignore persistent soot formation.
Placement warning: Grand Canyon warns that incorrect log placement can cause sooting and improper carbon-monoxide output.
Important Installation & Operating Requirements

Flame Authority Expert Recommendation
Choose the Grand Canyon VFWO24 when you want a hand-painted 24-inch Weathered Oak appearance and already have or plan to purchase the compatible Grand Canyon Vulcan Vent Less 24/30 burner system.
Its individually cast refractory construction, nine-position log layout, detailed weathered finish, 28" × 20" × 14" × 18" minimum fireplace requirement, compatible 19,000–37,000 BTU burner range, and multiple Vulcan control options make it a strong fit for qualifying fireplace installations.
The most important buying step is confirming the complete system. Verify the fireplace dimensions, approved burner platform, Natural Gas or Propane configuration, control type, local vent-free requirements, log-placement pattern, and professional installation.
If the installation is outdoors, make sure the fireplace is protected from direct weather exposure and review the applicable outdoor warranty terms.
