Looking foward to what you find out. I needed replacement logs a year or two ago and found none to be had. Now liiking for the gas log insert with front controls and can't find those either. For the replacement logs I had to bring them from the US.

We bought ventless gas logs from Strom White many years ago. They are expensive down here because of duty and 16% IVA tax. They were around 1200 U.S. We don't use them too often, but when it is cold they do the job. They will raise the temp of a room about 7-8 degrees in about 15-20 minutes on low burner. However, ours are ventless and our chimney is blocked off so all of the heat comes directly into the house. If you have a chimney and you buy vented logs, they will probably be less expensive, but most of the heat will go up the chimney and you won't get much heat. If you are serious about having gas logs, block off your chimney and buy ventless. In the US they are around 600 dollars so if you have a buddy that can bring them down, it will save you a bundle. Don't get fiber logs, they deteriorate. Buy ceramic. They are more expensive but last a life time.
