A High-Capacity Vented Burner With More Front Flame Activity
The G45-24 is designed for buyers who want the traditional appearance of a vented gas-log fireplace with more flame activity toward the front of the log stack.
The Triple T burner combines the main burner with an additional front burner section, helping create a fuller flame presentation around a compatible Real Fyre log set.
The 24-inch G45 is available in separate Natural Gas and Propane configurations and with multiple control systems, including match-lit, standing-pilot, remote-control, and electronic-ignition arrangements.
Important before ordering: A nominal 24-inch burner does not mean a 24-inch-wide fireplace is large enough. Real Fyre specifies different minimum fireplace dimensions depending on the exact control configuration.

For other pilot-kit arrangements covered by the manual burner instructions, the supplied source also states that additional width may be required.
How to Measure Before Ordering
Front Width
Measure the fireplace opening at the front.
Rear Width
Measure the rear firebox width at the applicable depth.
Depth
Measure from the front opening to the rear wall of the firebox.
Height
Measure the usable firebox height.
Do not choose by nominal size alone: A fireplace may be wide enough at the front but still fail the rear-width, depth, or control-clearance requirements.
Natural Gas & Propane Configurations
The burner must be ordered for and operated with the same fuel type supplied to the fireplace.

Fuel warning: Do not install or operate the burner if the available fuel does not match the gas type shown on the burner-system rating plate.
Gas Supply Planning
The manufacturer specifies a minimum 1/2-inch interior-diameter gas supply pipe.
A larger diameter line may be necessary where the gas run exceeds 20 feet or where required to maintain the correct pressure at maximum burner input.
Propane installations: The Propane supply must be properly regulated. Do not connect the G45 burner directly to an unregulated Propane tank or portable cylinder.
Burner Media & Glowing Ember Presentation
The G45 uses fuel-specific burner media beneath the glowing embers.
Natural Gas
Uses sand as the burner media beneath the glowing ember material.
Propane
Uses vermiculite as the burner media beneath the glowing ember material.
Real Fyre describes the intended main-burner flame as blue at the base with a combination of blue and yellow through the body and flame tips.
Flame quality depends on installation: Correct media placement, gas pressure, log positioning, and chimney ventilation all affect burner performance.

Flame Authority Expert Recommendation
Choose the Real Fyre G45-24 when you have a compatible wood-burning fireplace and want a traditional vented gas-log presentation with stronger front flame activity than a basic single burner provides.
Its Triple T burner design, 90,000 BTU Natural Gas rating, 65,000 BTU Propane rating, glowing ember presentation, multiple control configurations, and broad compatibility with Real Fyre vented log styles make it a strong choice for homeowners prioritizing flame appearance and traditional fireplace aesthetics.
The most important buying step is verifying the exact configuration before ordering. Confirm the fuel type, control system, front and rear firebox width, depth, height, chimney condition, 15-foot minimum chimney height, damper operation, and gas supply.
Also remember that the decorative Real Fyre gas logs are required and sold separately.
