Grand Canyon Gas Logs

What Grand Canyon Gas Logs does

Grand Canyon Gas Logs is a Phoenix, Arizona-based hearth manufacturer founded in 2014 (some sources cite 2013) and operated as a subsidiary of RPG Brands, a diversified Phoenix conglomerate that also owns Modern Flames (electric fireplaces) and Wildfire Outdoor Living. The company designs, engineers, and manufactures ultra-realistic ceramic refractory gas logs, burners, and outdoor fire features in the United States, using log molds cast from real wood specimens sourced from Arizona forests and finished with hand-painted artistry. Its proprietary GlowFire™ and Phantom™ log technologies integrate burner tubes inside ceramic logs to produce more authentic flame patterns with lower BTU consumption, and the product portfolio spans vented indoor logs, outdoor fire pits, fire tables and fire bowls, linear Bedrock drop-in burners, and a connected WBPB-12/24 controller with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi home-automation integration.

The company sells primarily through a network of authorized local dealers and showrooms accessed via its dealer locator, complemented by approved online dealers and a request-a-quote channel for custom and commercial installations. Customer segments are hybrid: residential homeowners form the horizontal base, while commercial/hospitality projects (Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass, The LINE Austin, Whitestone Reit's Market Street at DC Ranch) and entertainment placements (HGTV's Rock the Block Season 7, Celeb IOU with Property Brothers and Kris Jenner) serve as high-visibility verticals. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is conducted dealer-side or via quote, with products backed by lifetime warranties on indoor installations and ANSI-certified stainless steel burner systems.

Grand Canyon Gas Logs has appeared on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private U.S. companies for six consecutive years (2019–2024) and RPG Brands won five Globee Awards in 2024, including Gold for GlowFire™ Log Technology. The company employs 11–50 people and is privately held with no disclosed venture capital or private equity backing, with leadership including Executive Vice President Elliott White and President Kris Richardson.
