Real Fyre G8E Vent-Free Burner with Valley Oak Log Set
Real FyreReal Fyre G8E Overview
The Real Fyre G8E is RH Peterson's entry-tier vent-free burner, sized for 16-, 20-, and 24-inch fireboxes - the right fit for compact rooms, zone-heating applications, and bedroom-rated installations where local code permits. The 20,000 BTU model is the standard configuration; the 9,500 BTU R-version is purpose-built for bedrooms in jurisdictions that allow vent-free supplemental heating below the 10,000 BTU bedroom limit.
Two log styles pair with the G8E: Valley Oak in classic stacked design and Split Valley Oak with a deeper grain detail. Both ship as ANSI-certified vent-free systems with a decorative front panel, custom grate, connector kit, and ODS pilot. Three control options on the standard 20K burner - manual key valve, ON/OFF remote, or variable-flame remote - let installers match the budget to the install. The 9,500 BTU R-version is offered in manual and ON/OFF remote only.
