Important: Log Set Only – G10 Burner Required
The CHFR-30 includes the 30-inch Charred Frontier Oak decorative logs only. A compatible Peterson Real Fyre G10 burner system is required and purchased separately.
The burner shown in product imagery is not included.
Large-Scale Charred Oak Styling for the Real Fyre G10 System
The CHFR-30 is designed for larger fireplace openings where a substantial 30-inch gas-log presentation is desired.
Its sculpted bark surfaces, charred detailing, natural coloration, and burnt-through front log reproduce the layered look of oak that has weathered and burned over time.
When arranged according to the manufacturer instructions over a compatible G10-24/30 burner, the seven logs create openings through the stack that support the intended flame movement and ember-bed presentation.
Compatibility first: CHFR-30 is not a universal decorative log set. Confirm the G10 burner platform, 30-inch log configuration, fireplace dimensions, fuel, controls, and installation requirements before ordering.

- You need a universal replacement gas-log set.
- You expect the burner, pilot, controls, or remote to be included.

Why Choose the Real Fyre CHFR-30?
30-Inch Fireplace Presence
The larger nominal size creates a broad decorative log presentation for fireplaces that can accommodate the G10-24/30 platform.
Charred Frontier Oak Styling
Detailed bark, darkened surfaces, natural coloration, and a burnt-through front log recreate the appearance of heavily burned oak.
Seven-Piece Configuration
The manufacturer identifies seven individual log positions for the 30-inch CHFR-30 arrangement.
Refractory Ceramic
The logs are constructed from refractory ceramic material designed for the heat generated by a compatible gas burner.
Steel Reinforcement
The supplied product information identifies steel reinforcement rods within the refractory logs for added strength.
Radiant Heat Retention
The heated refractory material continues releasing stored heat for a period after the burner is shut down.
G10 Burner Compatibility Is Required
The CHFR-30 must be used with a Peterson Real Fyre G10 burner system.
For the 30-inch Charred Frontier Oak configuration, the compatible burner platform is the G10-24/30.
Do not substitute another burner. Using the CHFR-30 with an unspecified burner can result in incorrect flame behavior, soot, flame impingement, or unsafe combustion.
The Logs Do Not Determine Fuel, BTU Output or Controls
CHFR-30 identifies the decorative refractory log set. Operating specifications come from the separately purchased G10 burner.
Fuel Type
Natural Gas or Propane is determined by the selected G10 burner configuration.
BTU Output
The compatible G10-24/30 burner provides the heat input, not the ceramic logs.
Ignition
Manual, standing-pilot, or electronic ignition depends on the selected burner/control package.
Remote Control
Remote functionality depends on the chosen G10 control configuration.
Safety Pilot
The compatible G10 burner incorporates the applicable ODS safety system.
Fireplace Requirements
Minimum dimensions and installation conditions come from the G10 burner instructions.

Specification distinction: BTU output, fuel, ignition, pilot type, controls, ODS safety system, and operating requirements belong to the compatible G10 burner system rather than the CHFR-30 decorative logs alone.
Minimum Fireplace Size for CHFR-30 with G10-24/30
For the 30-inch log configuration, the G10 owner's manual lists the following minimum fireplace dimensions:
| Minimum Front Fireplace Width |
34" |
| Minimum Rear Fireplace Width |
20" |
| Minimum Fireplace Depth |
14" |
| Minimum Fireplace Height |
17" |
Measure before ordering: Do not choose CHFR-30 based only on the nominal 30-inch log length. The fireplace must satisfy all four G10-24/30 minimum dimensions.
Compatible G10-24/30 Burner Output
When the CHFR-30 is paired with the compatible G10-24/30 burner platform, the supplied product information lists the following burner ratings:
| Fuel |
High Setting |
Applicable Low Setting |
| Natural Gas |
37,000 BTU |
19,000 BTU* |
| Propane |
37,000 BTU |
19,000 BTU* |
*The 19,000 BTU low setting applies to applicable G10 -01V and -15 variable-control models.
BTU clarification: These ratings belong to the compatible G10 burner system. The refractory CHFR-30 logs do not have an independent heat-input rating.
G10 Burner Control Options
The operating experience depends on the compatible G10 burner configuration selected separately.

What's Included & What You'll Need
Included
- Real Fyre 30" Charred Frontier Oak refractory ceramic log set.
- Seven decorative logs for the manufacturer-prescribed CHFR-30 arrangement.
Required Separately
- Compatible Peterson Real Fyre G10 burner system.
- Correct Natural Gas or Propane burner configuration.
- Applicable G10 control package.
CHFR-30 Seven-Log Configuration
The manufacturer's placement instructions identify the following seven-log arrangement for CHFR-30:
1. Rear Log
24-inch rear log.
2. Front Log
30-inch front log.
3. Left Middle Log
Positioned in the manufacturer-defined left-middle location.
4. Right Middle Log
Positioned in the corresponding right-middle location.
5. Center Top Log
Placed centrally over the lower arrangement.
6. Outer-Left Middle Log
Locks into the prescribed left outer position.
7. Outer-Right Middle Log
Completes the seven-log arrangement on the opposite side.
Correct Log Placement Is Essential
The bottom CHFR-30 logs include cutouts and alignment features designed to correspond with the G10 burner and grate.
Correct Installation
- Position the rear log against the main burner bracket.
- Position the front log against the main burner bracket.
- Make sure both lower logs sit flat and are fully seated.
- Place the middle and top logs in their specified interlocking locations.
- Maintain the required openings between logs.
- Periodically confirm that no logs have shifted.
- Verify that flames are not striking the logs.
Do Not
- Create a custom log arrangement.
- Operate with loosely seated bottom logs.
- Block the intended flame openings.
- Allow ongoing flame impingement.
- Add additional embers beyond the manufacturer-prescribed amount.
- Ignore significant soot accumulation.
No flame impingement: The supplied placement instructions state that properly positioned CHFR logs should not experience flame impingement.
Soot, Flame Impingement & Combustion
Black carbon or soot can indicate incorrect log positioning, restricted flame openings, or incomplete combustion.
If a flame is striking a log, shut the system down as required and compare the arrangement with the manufacturer placement instructions.
If soot develops: Recheck the placement and spacing of the seven CHFR-30 logs before continued operation.
If significant sooting continues: Stop using the gas log system. If soot appears outside the firebox, turn the system off immediately and contact a qualified professional service technician.
Do Not Add Extra Embers
Real Fyre specifically warns against adding additional ember material beyond the amount and placement specified for the compatible G10 installation.
Why this matters: Excess ember material can interfere with burner operation, alter the flame pattern, and contribute to unsafe combustion.
G10 Oxygen Depletion Sensor Safety Pilot
The compatible Real Fyre G10 burner system uses an Oxygen Depletion Sensor (ODS) safety pilot.
The ODS is designed to shut down the burner system before available room oxygen drops below the manufacturer's specified operating threshold.
ODS is not a substitute for proper ventilation: Vent-free installations still require proper room volume, combustion air, ventilation, installation, and maintenance.
G10 Vent-Free & Vented Installation Capability
Vent-Free / Unvented
The compatible G10 burner is design-certified as an ANSI Z21.11.2 Unvented Room Heater when installed in an eligible application according to manufacturer requirements.
Vented Decorative
The G10 burner is also design-certified as an ANSI Z21.60 Vented Decorative Appliance when configured according to the applicable manufacturer instructions.
Local-code check: State and local rules can restrict or prohibit vent-free appliances. Verify the permitted installation type before purchasing or installing the complete G10 system.
Installation Requirements
The G10 burner system must be installed according to the manufacturer instructions and applicable local requirements.
Professional Installation
Real Fyre specifies installation and service by a qualified professional service technician, service agency, or gas supplier.
Correct Fuel
The selected G10 burner must match the Natural Gas or Propane supply at the installation location.
Fireplace Size
The firebox must meet the 30-inch G10-24/30 minimum dimensions.
Combustion Air
Adequate combustion and ventilation air must be provided for unvented operation.
Correct Log Placement
Install all seven CHFR-30 logs according to the dedicated placement instructions.
Local Requirements
Check applicable state, local, and installation requirements before operating vent-free.
Hot Surface & Handling Precautions
The refractory logs remain hot after the burner is shut down.
Burn hazard: Allow adequate cooling time before handling or repositioning the logs. Use suitable heat-resistant gloves if repositioning is necessary.

Flame Authority Expert Recommendation
Choose the Real Fyre CHFR-30 when you want the largest Charred Frontier Oak option in this series and already have or plan to purchase a compatible Real Fyre G10-24/30 burner.
Its 30-inch scale, seven-log arrangement, heavily charred oak styling, burnt-through front log, refractory ceramic construction, steel reinforcement, and G10-specific positioning 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, correct G10 burner, correct Natural Gas or Propane configuration, desired control system, and permitted vent-free or vented installation type.
Do not select CHFR-30 only because your fireplace appears large enough. The G10 dimensions and installation conditions must be satisfied before ordering.
