This is a gas appliance used to light real-wood fires. you stack real wood in it, and then turn on the gas to assist in lighting the fire. Since you don't want to use real wood, you'll probably want to contact a local fireplace seller. The good news is that you already have gas in the fireplace, it should be cheaper than starting from scratch. It sounds like you have a "log-lighter."
