The flames are the star of the show. The logs the supporting actors. But what about the little guys at the bottom? The embers. Maintaining your gas fireplace and its elements is essential for the health and brilliance of your home. While the logs and embers should last indefinitely, it’s not uncommon for the embers to lose their brilliance after a year or two.
The good news is that your gas fireplace embers are made of inert mineral fibers and are completely safe to handle. They are non-combustible and non-toxic. If you notice that they are waning in their original brilliance, you can either replace them or refresh them with new embers. The finer and thinner the ember, the more authentic their glow will be. You can even opt for embers that emit different colors.
So now that the mercury is finally beginning to drop, if you crank up your fireplace and find it lacking in the glow department, it may be time to freshen up your embers. The experts at Casual Creations have everything you need for your gas logs, fireplace, and accessories.
