When selecting a fireplace burner, the style you choose depends on the type of fireplace you have and the aesthetic you're aiming to achieve. Here are the two main types:
Standard Fireplace Burners
-
Single Front-View:
Standard burners are designed with a single front-facing view, meaning the flame is visible only from the front. This style is ideal for traditional fireplaces where only one side of the fireplace is exposed, such as against a wall or in a single room.- Best For:
- Traditional or standard fireplaces
- Homes where the fireplace is visible from one side only
- Spaces where you want a straightforward, classic look
- Best For:
See-Thru Fireplace Burners
-
Double Front-View:
Also known as "double-sided" or "see-thru" burners, these are designed to be visible from two sides of the fireplace. They are ideal for fireplaces that connect two rooms or for a central fireplace feature visible from multiple angles. The flames are designed to be viewed from both sides, offering a dynamic and elegant look that works well in open-concept spaces or between adjacent rooms.- Best For:
- Double-sided fireplaces
- Rooms with a fireplace that serves as a divider between two spaces
- Homes with a modern, open-plan layout or multi-room visibility
- Best For:
Choosing the right burner style depends on how you intend to use your fireplace and the design of your space. If you have a traditional fireplace, a standard single-view burner will be perfect. However, if your fireplace is a focal point between two rooms or in an open-concept area, a see-thru burner can provide a stunning and functional feature.
