It's the hottest thing - and the coolest – all at the same time! Swap those old gas logs with American FireglassTM and lava rocks and put fascination and magic in your natural gas fireplace.

Stop guests in their tracks with a truly exclusive look that is sure to be the epicenter of attention. Whether your scheme is contemporary, classic, rustic or somewhere in between, American Fireglass provides uncompromising adaptability. The multitude of colors and size possibilities allows you to create your own custom look.

The glass is strengthened for long-term heat consumption. Thanks to the procedure used in creating the glass, it burns cleaner and more proficiently than conventional gas logs. It will not melt, degrade, or emit toxic fumes. (This refers to the glass itself. You are still required to have your damper open when burning!) The fireglass will last essentially a lifetime.

There is no soot, no ash and no smoke and with no popping embers to worry about, you can even remove those screens and glass doors that impede your view. Then watch the colors dance! Now if you think this looks amazing in your fireplace, it is a show-stopper in an outdoor fire pit or as a decorative feature in your patio landscape.

The tumbling and polishing procedure used to produce the FireglassTM ensures that there are no sharp edges to cut you and almost anyone can install it. Merely remove those old gas logs and clean out your fireplace. Wipe the surfaces clean with a dry cloth to eliminate any dust. Check your burner to make sure it is in proper working order or you can purchase our H-Burner or Fire pit ring and you're ready to fill.

The choices are endless! A typical fireplace will take between 50 and 75 lbs of glass. Using our Fire Rock as filler, you can cut back on the amount of glass required and give you the same look. However, if you want to adjust the color for a party or on holidays, an all-glass installation is best. To gage the amount of American FireglassTM you will need for your fireplace, please go to our calculate page. We advise placing a 2"- 3" thick layer of FireglassTM to get the Proper flame.
