More Flame, Zero Frame.

Our new Bonfire Burner System redefines what’s possible inside a frameless traditional fireplace. This flat-style burner creates a dramatically larger flame presentation that fills the firebox more fully, without changing any framing, dimensions, or setup requirements. Available in both natural gas and liquid propane, it pairs beautifully with our large oak log set or any decorative media of your choice, letting you design your ideal flame experience. Best of all, it’s the same cost as our standard Summit Burner, yet delivers an unmistakably elevated presentation.

Bonfire Burner System vs. Standard Summit Burner

The Flare Summit Burner has long been the go-to choice for clean, reliable flame performance in our traditional fireplace lineup. The Bonfire Burner System was built to take that foundation further. While both burners share the same footprint and fit within identical framing requirements, the Bonfire Burner produces a noticeably wider, taller flame that commands the full width of the firebox. The result is a richer, more dramatic fire experience – without any added cost, structural changes, or installation complexity.

Both systems support natural gas and liquid propane, integrate with our Heat Flex systems. The change is mostly visual – and unmistakably impactful.

Who Is the Bonfire Burner System For?

The Bonfire Burner System is ideal for homeowners, designers, and builders who want maximum visual impact from a traditional frameless fireplace while keeping more flexibility in the final design. If your project calls for a fireplace that becomes an architectural focal point — in a great room, primary suite, or high-end commercial lobby — the Bonfire Burner delivers a fuller, more dramatic flame presentation without requiring oversized dimensions or a premium price.

One of the key advantages of the Bonfire Burner System is media flexibility. It can be ordered with Flare’s Traditional Oak Log Set for a classic fireplace look, or designed with modern media such as crushed glass and ceramic balls for a cleaner contemporary style. This gives designers and homeowners more control over the finished appearance compared with systems where the flame presentation is built around a specific log set.
