Product Description

The simplest way to put fire in a fireplace

A sand pan burner is exactly what it sounds like: a steel pan you fill with sand, with a gas burner tube underneath. Light it and the flame rises through the sand across the whole width of the pan. There is no pilot, no valve train, no electronics — you open the gas key and touch a match to it.

That simplicity is the point. It is the least expensive way to get a real gas flame into an open fireplace, it has almost nothing that can fail, and the flame pattern is broad and even rather than concentrated at one point.

Single, double, or outdoor

  • Single burner — one burner tube. The economical choice, and plenty for a modest opening.
  • Double burner — two tubes for a fuller, deeper flame across the pan. Worth the step up in a wide firebox.
  • Double burner, outdoor — built for outdoor fireplaces, where wind and weather are a factor.

Sizes

Available in 18", 24", 30" and 36" to suit the firebox. Measure the inside width of your opening and leave clearance at each side — the pan should not touch the side walls.

Important: this is a vented burner

Sand pan burners are for vented fireplaces with a working flue that stays open. They are not vent-free appliances and must never be used in a sealed or unvented firebox. If you are unsure whether your chimney is suitable, ask before you buy.

Log sets are sold separately — Great Lakes Oak, Oak Tinder and Treehouse refractory sets are all sized to these pans. For propane configurations, call us and we will confirm availability and pricing: (540) 212-9374.
