Skyflame Rock Wool for Vented Gas Fireplaces to Create a Realistic Glowing Embers Effect

lakesaintclair: This stuff works great. Given you refurbish the natural gas fireplace once every few years, I wasn't tuned into the details. Turns out, 6 ounces of this stuff would supply the whole neighborhood. Bottom line is it works great, but you must carefully tear off very small pieces of this "wool" and carefully place it around the area where flame shows during operation of your gas log fireplace. I tore off tiny pieces, spread them around, turned on the fireplace, took a look, turned it off and kept repeating this until I got the look I wanted. Very nice. But I maybe used 1/2 ounce out of the six ounce bag. So I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. This bag will last a life time. Maybe they wouldn't make any money on a two ounce bag but that's all you'll need. As for the effect of glowing embers, excellent. The product makes the look much better. As for lava rock, this wool is much more important. I bought and installed both. When you're 5-15 feet from your operating fireplace, you can't see details, only the glowing wool. Try this first. Then lava rock if necessary. The rock may disperse the gas better but this wool is the show.

Gar Reyem: This material made my fireplace look very realistic. It must be applied as very small bits to work. Anything larger produces a black lump. I used two shish ka bob skewers to distribute the material so it has a nice even glow.

jpaquin31: Brings back the bright red glow of embers in my gas fireplace. Easy to use and plenty left for future replacements.

Tory F.Tory F.: My fireplace never had rock wool! Super easy to place and recommend pulling it apart into tiny pieces for the best effect. It breaks the flame and adds the smoldering look that is realistic. I placed it all over the grate.

NWOutdoors: Works great comes with a lot of material. Not as bright as the really expensive “platinum embers” that come in the tiny package but look and work great. Could supplement with one pack of the platinum embers for extra bright effect
