    Ortal has introduced its Wilderness Gas Fireplace Insert Collection, a quick way to transform existing wood-burning or outdated gas fireplaces. Designed to fit seamlessly into most masonry fireplaces, the line features Ortal’s flame-through-log technology, a patent-pending system that creates ultra-realistic, taller flames that emerge directly through the logs, delivering the charm of a wood-burning fire with the efficiency of gas. Each insert includes top and bottom interior lighting, anti-reflective ceramic glass for a glare-free view, adjustable heat output, and operation with or without power. As fully enclosed systems, these inserts bring the heat while enhancing safety and indoor air quality. Available in 29 and 34 inches, with natural gas or propane compatibility and a wide range of customizable options—from frame finishes to panel styles and log colors—the insert typically can be installed in less than three hours.
