Do you need a special gas burner for these rocks or my current gas burner in the fireplace would work?

There is nothing special about where the rock go. You could use it anywhere.

We covered the gas burner apparatus with glass rock so the flame comes through and dances on the glass. A very beautiful effect.

I understand from the packaging that these are safe for gas FPs. I didn't see a distinction among FPs.

I would say no to a special burner. In my gas fireplace; as in most, the burner is above the bottom of the fireplace itself... in the "logs". So when you put the fireplace glass in the bottom it will not or should not be high enough to touch the burner itself. There was/is a warning that comes with the glass (I believe this is where I got this advice) that says make sure to close the mesh or doors to the fireplace before lighting as there might be a chance of some glass pieces "popping" durning the first few heatings. I however, never had any popping and am very happy with the look and performance of the fireplace glass. I would say no to a special burner.

You need to change the grate like the one person suggested since fire pits for lava rocks/logs have a different design compared to fire pits for fireglass.

Yes, You do need the Grate.If you are going to use logs.This would allow the fire to burn efficiently, otherwise the Ash would kill the log fire.

The Red Devil Silica Sand will work safely in LP or natural gas fireplace. The sand will not burn so the sand is not a hazard. Just make sure the gas line (LP and/or natural gas) is installed correctly.

The glass does not light on fire. You need propane or natural gas. The flames coming thru the glass is the beauty of using them.

I don't know why you couldn't...I would probably put some cheap lava rock from your big box store as a base to distribute the flames though

I believe that you could, as the basin the burner fits inside is fillable, though you may like to check with mfr for any possible concerns about high heat retention or other feedback they may have, as I did not try this personally so can't speak to it from experience. Wish you well and an excellent 4th :)

I am not familiar with that particular fire pit but I have these logs on top of lave rock (small) with a gas burmer under it and it works great!

I am not sure, I have a gas burner, but I can't imagine it would be a problem.

I've not used mine for either but suspect it would not be the best way to cook them. The fire is on one long burner and would only heat a narrow portion of the pot or coffee maker.

I did not try it, i prefer the glass pebbles. You can purchase lava rock from any home depot/loews store.You should find them in the outdoor grills section.If you are thinks real rocks (river rocks..) i would just arrange them so as to get good gas flow distribution.You can get river rocks/peebles from any lawn and garden outlet.

Yes, you put the stone on the grill and wait for it to get up to the correct temps. You use wood with the charcoal so there will be flames.
1194992
Yes, but the glass will not glow like embers and typically isn't mixed with logs. The glass is high heat tolerant and is fine with natural gass or propane.
1232651
I don't see how you could because there is nothing to burn. The glass doesn't burn. It just reflects the flames from the gas. If you had a gas pipe installed in the fireplace, you could put fireglass in there

If you mean an oven it should be fine. I have a gas oven. .it should not matter if it's propane or not.

I would highly recommend this so ensure that you do not get dust in the propane line. I did this myself when I replace original lava rock with new fireglass.

I've done both and it works fine. Just make sure if you put them around the burner they don't impede the flame or gas flow. This can cause hot or cold spots and/or difficult lighting.
