Abstract

A heating appliance operated from a gaseous fuel comprises a plurality of refractory bodies simulating solid fuel mounted on the top of a distributor for the gaseous fuel. To ensure that at least some of the gaseous fuel burns at a high temperature thereby causing the simulated solid fuel to be heated and to "glow" at least one duct leads to the upper side of the gas distributor so that air can be passed along the duct to mix with the gaseous fuel.
