High Temperature Resistance Rock Wool Gas Logs- 6 oz Bag

Both products were just what I needed to maintenance my gas fireplace after a long winter. Looks real nice.

Beautiful glowing embers for my gas fireplace. Great price, and exactly what I needed.

Great product. Works perfect in the fireplace and at a great price.

The Rock Wool from American gas logs is an excellent product and is priced about 50% cheaper than other vendors for the same 6 oz bag. I am confident that the 6 oz bag will last for years, since it doesn't take much to get the desired effect of glowing embers. The glowing ember effect is perfect and really dresses up the gas fireplace. I used about 1/10th of the bag for my first application. A nice customer service touch is they included 2 plastic food handler gloves so you won't run the risk of getting "splinters" from the rock wool. I would definitely purchase this product again when needed.

Be aware this comes in a vacuum packed bag. Most likely you will save and reuse if you use if for your gas fireplace like me. Product is fine. Just not as pictured!

Works great. Small pieces, stretch it thin and use sparingly; less is more. I barely used 5% of the bag on my fireplace. Lifetime supply, lol.

I am reviewing a number of fireplace products at once, including the product you are viewing right now. I bought a house with a gas fireplace and recently got it working. I learned a lot about various products in the process, and I want to share some of what I learned and also give you my unvarnished reviews of the products I bought. Before you do anything else, however, get your fireplace inspected. You don't want a fire. Ok, with that said, my fireplace is natural gas. To make it look realistic, I bought logs, lava rock, silica sand, and rock wool. I am very pleased with each of my purchases. If you are new to gas fireplaces, here is how you put it all together. Put the sand in the tray, covering the gas pipes. Put the lava rock all around tray to cover the floor of your fireplace. Tear the rock wool in to small pieces (like if you were making stuffing) and spread them out over the sand. Follow the instructions for your log set, but be sure to leave at least 2 inches between all of the logs so the fire can flow easily. If you don't do that, you'll get a lot of soot. Here are my reviews:SILICA SAND: I BOUGHT RUBBERMAID COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS STATION SAND REFILL (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006HWUWS?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1). I highly recommend this silica sand. CAUTION: Do not use sand if you have a propane gas fireplace. If you have propane gas, you must use vermiculite. I have a natural gas fireplace, so I can use either vermiculite or sand. I chose sand. My understanding is that you can only use silica sand in a fireplace because it tolerates very high heat. The silica sand I purchased was marked for ashtray stations and did not say that it was rated for fireplaces. So, I called Rubbermaid who confirmed that it can tolerate up to 2300 degrees F, which is much hotter than any gas fireplace will get. The description of the sand is a little confusing, and apparently some customers did not get the right amount or the right color. I received 5 bags, each weighing 5lbs, as described, in the color of my choice (black). I am extremely happy with this product and have sand to last me a few years at least. I used 2 bags.LOGS: I BOUGHT SEERCOOK WHITE BIRCH CERAMIC LOGS (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D8JB5P48?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title). I highly recommend these logs. However, if you are looking for super high quality ceramic logs, these are not what you want. These are ceramic fiber logs, not "pure ceramic", also called "refractory ceramic." Purse ceramic logs are very expensive and run in the hundreds. I wanted something economical, and these are exactly what I was looking for. I read the reviews of several white birch logs, and people commented that they got soot on them and lost their white appearance. There is truth to that, but no birch logs would stay white in a real wood fireplace either. After use, my logs have some blackened spots (that mostly can be brushed off) and turned to a grayer color that I think looks very realistic. I highly recommend these logs.ROCK WOOL: I BOUGHT HIGH TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE ROCK WOOL GAS LOGS (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BDSBHB3L?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title). I highly recommend this rock wool. The product I received did not come in the packaging that appears in the photos, but I really don't care what the packaging looks like. My rock wool came in a clear, heavy plastic bag that was stuffed with oodles of rock wool and shipped in a small box. I bought two, which is way more than I needed. A little goes a long way when it comes to rock wool! I probably used ¼ of one bag. This rock wool is excellent and a bargain compared to others being sold on Amazon. You will be happy with this product.LAVE ROCKS: I BOUGHT AMERICAN FIREGLASS MEDIUM LAVA ROCKS (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002NHW0NS?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1).I highly recommend these lava rocks. I bought two packages of these lava rocks and needed both. DO NOT (as I did) just dump the rocks directly from the bag. There is so much dirty lava rock dust on the bottom and it made a complete mess. Instead, grab handfuls of the lava rock and place them where you want them. The dust will stay in the bag that way. The lava rocks look great in my opinion, though I have only put one bag on. So, if it looks a little skimpy in the photos, that's why.

I didn't know it at the time but when they set up my gas fireplace they kind of skimped on the rock wool embers. I got this bag and it was a game changer now the fire looks way more realistic and it's easy to add or remove the rock wool if you need or want to. If you have a gas fireplace do your self a favor and get some of this stuff. It really does make a big difference in the ambiance.

I found this product a mess to use..

We just had our gas fireplace cleaned & repaired. The previous rock wool was burned out after 20 years & we didn’t like the look of the blue flame without it.I read reviews on this product & we liked the price. The bag was plain, vacuumed packed & stuffed in a small box for cheaper shipping cost to the customer. It came with plastic gloves & I easily tore pieces of it into dime size pieces & the tech placed them sparingly over the tiny holes.It was perfect for our heat & glo fireplace. They look like natural embers. We will replace these each year when getting serviced & I am sure there is enough for the next 20 years. 😁

J’ai ajouté environ le dixième du sac dans mon foyer et le résultat est superbe. J’ai suffisamment de matériel pour une vingtaine d’années. Cela augmente grandement le réalisme d’un feu au propane, en le rapprochant de l’apparence d’un feu de bois, et donne l’illusion de vraies braises.

This product really works!Don't be fooled by the amount within its bag (6oz is A LOT). Likely enough to fulfil your fireplace and donate some to your neighbours and friends too, lol.It was very visible the difference before/after its application. Specially if you spread very tiny pieces over the fireplace for a more realistic glowing embers display.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

We have used this for over a year now and it works great. It makes our gas fireplace look like coals and embers are in the rocks. It makes it more realistic which I really love.
