Important: Decorative Log Set Only – G10 Burner Required
The CHAS-30 includes the 30-inch Charred Aged Split decorative log set only. The Peterson Real Fyre G10 burner shown in product imagery is not included and must be purchased separately.
Large Charred Split-Wood Styling for the Real Fyre G10 System
The CHAS-30 is the largest listed size in the Charred Aged Split series and is designed for larger compatible fireplace openings.
Its irregular split surfaces, bark textures, aged coloration, and dark charred detailing recreate the appearance of firewood that has naturally weathered and burned.
The seven refractory ceramic logs are positioned over the compatible G10-24/30 burner in a prescribed arrangement that creates depth while maintaining the spacing required for the intended flame pattern and combustion characteristics.
Compatibility first: CHAS-30 is not a universal replacement gas-log set. Confirm the G10 burner platform, 30-inch configuration, fireplace dimensions, fuel, controls, and installation requirements before ordering.

Why Choose the Real Fyre CHAS-30?
30-Inch Charred Aged Split Design
The largest listed CHAS size creates a substantial fireplace presentation in compatible fireboxes.
Seven-Log Arrangement
The manufacturer specifies seven individual logs for the 30-inch configuration.
Realistic Wood Detailing
High-definition bark texture, natural coloration, split surfaces, and charred detailing recreate aged firewood.
Refractory Ceramic Construction
The logs are designed for the elevated temperatures associated with a compatible gas-fireplace burner system.
Steel Reinforcement
Steel rods incorporated into the logs provide additional internal structural support.
Radiant Heat Characteristics
The ceramic logs absorb and radiate heat during operation and retain heat for a period after shutdown.
G10 Burner Compatibility Is Required
The CHAS-30 is designed specifically for use with a Peterson Real Fyre G10 burner system.
For the 30-inch configuration, the applicable burner platform is the G10-24/30.
Do not substitute another burner. An incompatible burner can interfere with log placement, flame pattern, and combustion and may create an unsafe installation.
The Logs Do Not Determine Fuel, BTU Output or Controls
The CHAS-30 is the decorative refractory log component. Operating specifications are determined by the separately purchased G10 burner system.
Fuel Type
Natural Gas or Propane depends on the selected G10 burner configuration.
BTU Output
The G10 burner produces the heat input; the ceramic logs do not have an independent burner rating.
Ignition
Manual, standing-pilot, or electronic ignition depends on the selected burner/control configuration.
Remote Control
Remote operation depends on the specific G10 control package.
ODS Safety Pilot
The compatible G10 burner incorporates the Oxygen Depletion Sensor safety system.
Fireplace Requirements
Minimum dimensions and operating requirements are determined by the G10 installation instructions.

Natural Gas or Propane G10 Burner
The compatible G10 burner is available in separate Natural Gas and Propane configurations.
No field fuel conversion: The G10 burner manual states that field conversion between Natural Gas and Propane is not permitted. Order the burner for the fuel available at the installation location.
CHAS-30 Seven-Log Configuration
The manufacturer's prescribed 30-inch Charred Aged Split arrangement consists of:
1. Rear Log
Rear base log identified as CH(FR,AS)L-24BR.
2. Front Log
30-inch front base log identified as CH(FR,AS)L-30BF.
3. Left Middle Log
Installed in its designated left-middle position.
4. Right Middle Log
Installed in its designated right-middle position.
5. Center Top Log
Placed centrally over the lower arrangement.
6. Outer-Left Middle Log
Fits into its designated outer-left location.
7. Outer-Right Middle Log
Completes the prescribed seven-log configuration.
Correct CHAS-30 Log Placement
The underside of the bottom logs includes cutouts and tabs designed to align with the compatible G10 burner and grate. Upper logs use designated notches and seating positions.
Correct Installation
- Place the rear log on the grate and slide it forward against the main burner bracket.
- Place the front log on the grate and slide it backward against the main burner bracket.
- Make sure both lower logs rest flat on the burner/grate.
- Keep both lower logs snug against the main burner bracket.
- Install the left and right middle logs in their designated positions.
- Install the center top log.
- Install the outer-left and outer-right middle logs.
- Confirm every log is firmly seated before operation.
Do Not
- Arrange logs based only on appearance or product photography.
- Create a custom log stack.
- Operate with partially seated bottom logs.
- Block the intended flame openings.
- Allow flames to strike the logs.
- Add additional embers.
- Ignore persistent soot buildup.
Flame Impingement Must Be Avoided
Adequate spacing between logs must be maintained.
When the CHAS-30 logs are correctly positioned, the flames should not strike or impinge on any portion of the logs.
If flame impingement occurs: Turn the system off and verify the log arrangement before operating it again. Incorrect positioning can contribute to improper combustion and soot formation.
Do Not Add Additional Embers
Real Fyre specifically warns against adding extra embers to the CHAS-30 arrangement.
Use only specified media: Additional ember material can interfere with proper burner operation and may create an unsafe condition. Use only the media and components specified for the compatible G10 burner system.
What to Do if Soot Develops
Black carbon or soot can indicate incomplete combustion or incorrect log positioning.
Soot on the Logs
Compare the installation with the manufacturer placement instructions and correct any improper positioning or spacing.
Soot Outside the Firebox
Turn the system off immediately and contact a qualified professional service technician.
If significant sooting continues: Discontinue use until the cause has been identified and corrected.
G10 Oxygen Depletion Sensor Safety System
The compatible G10 burner incorporates an Oxygen Depletion Sensor (ODS) safety pilot.
The ODS monitors available room oxygen and is designed to shut the burner system down before oxygen falls below the manufacturer's specified threshold.
ODS does not replace ventilation: Adequate combustion air, ventilation, room volume, correct installation, and ongoing maintenance are still required.
Compatible G10 Fireplace Applications
The G10 burner system is designed for qualifying fireplace applications described in the manufacturer instructions.
Masonry Fireplace
Qualifying solid-fuel-burning masonry fireplace.
UL-127 Factory-Built Fireplace
Qualifying factory-built fireplace whose instructions permit the installation.
Listed Ventless Firebox
Listed ventless firebox enclosure that satisfies G10 installation requirements.
Installation restriction: Do not install the G10 in a factory-built fireplace whose instructions state that it has not been tested or should not be used with unvented burner systems.
Ventilation & Room-Size Requirements
A vent-free G10 installation requires adequate combustion and ventilation air.
The manufacturer's manual defines an unconfined space as one providing at least 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU/hr of the combined input rating of gas appliances installed in the space.
Maximum-input example: At 37,000 BTU/hr, the G10 installation requires appropriate qualifying room volume, with other gas appliances in the same space also included in the calculation.
If the available room volume does not meet the applicable requirement, additional combustion and ventilation air must be provided according to the G10 manual and applicable codes.
Important G10 Operating Requirements
No Solid Fuel
Do not burn wood or other solid fuel in the fireplace while the vent-free gas appliance is installed.
Glass Doors Fully Open
Fireplace glass doors must remain fully open during vent-free operation.
Avoid Direct Drafts
Do not allow fans or HVAC airflow to blow directly into or around the fireplace during operation.
Keep Flammables Away
Keep combustible materials, gasoline, and flammable vapors or liquids away from the fireplace.
Supplemental Heating
The G10 is intended for supplemental heating rather than primary home heating.
Attended Appliance
Do not leave the burner operating unattended or while anyone is sleeping.
Maintenance Requirements
The compatible G10 burner must be kept clean and properly maintained.
Annual Professional Service
The manufacturer requires inspection and service at least annually by a qualified professional service technician.
Burner Ports
Burner ports must remain clean and unobstructed.
ODS Pilot
The Oxygen Depletion Sensor pilot must remain clean and in proper operating condition.
Air Openings
Keep combustion and circulating-air passages clear.
Dust & Lint
Remove dust, lint, pet hair, and debris that could obstruct burner operation.
More Frequent Cleaning
Additional service may be required where airborne debris accumulates more quickly.
Heat & Handling Precautions
The refractory ceramic logs remain hot after the burner is switched off.
Burn hazard: Allow adequate cooling time before touching or repositioning the CHAS-30 logs. Follow the manufacturer's precautions regarding heat-resistant gloves if handling is necessary.
Real Fyre Vent-Free Warranty Highlights
The supplied Real Fyre Vent-Free catalog states that Real Fyre vent-free ceramic refractory gas logs carry a limited lifetime warranty for as long as the original owner owns them.
Burners, valves, pilots, controls, glass, and other system components have separate warranty periods.
Warranty guidance: Coverage is subject to the manufacturer's complete terms, proper installation, approved component use, maintenance, proof-of-purchase requirements, and exclusions.

Flame Authority Expert Recommendation
Choose the Real Fyre CHAS-30 when you want the largest Charred Aged Split log-set option and already have or plan to purchase a compatible Real Fyre G10-24/30 burner system.
Its 30-inch scale, seven-log arrangement, aged split-wood styling, charred detailing, refractory ceramic construction, steel reinforcement, and G10-specific placement make it well suited to larger compatible fireplace openings.
The most important buying step is verifying fit. Confirm the 34" minimum front width, 20" rear width, 14" depth, 17" height, compatible G10 burner, correct Natural Gas or Propane configuration, selected control system, and permitted installation type.
Do not choose CHAS-30 based only on its nominal log length. Correct G10 sizing, burner compatibility, ventilation, and log placement are essential to proper operation.
