The Real Fyre PB-18A Pan Burner is engineered to create a striking flame presentation by spreading fire evenly across the entire surface of the burner pan. At 18 inches, this vented burner is compact yet powerful, producing tall, dramatic flames that work beautifully in both modern and transitional fireplace designs. Its versatile pan design makes it ideal for see-thru, peninsula, or island-style fireplaces where flame visibility from multiple angles is desired.
This burner is compatible with a wide array of Real Fyre media options, giving homeowners the ability to fully customize their fireplace. It works seamlessly with traditional ceramic log sets as well as modern alternatives such as Fyre Glass, Fyre Gems, Fyre Spheres, and Diamond Nuggets. This flexibility allows the PB-18A to adapt to both classic hearth looks and bold contemporary designs.
Delivering up to 43,000 BTUs with natural gas or 36,000 BTUs with propane, the PB-18A balances strong performance with versatility. ANSI-certified versions are available in the 18-inch size with factory-installed safety valves, while simpler match-lit configurations are also offered. With its pan-wide flame coverage and RH Peterson’s craftsmanship, the PB-18A provides a dynamic and customizable centerpiece for vented fireplaces.
