Pre-fabricated wood burning fireboxes
are the budget-friendly alternative to building
a masonry fireplace. The steel fireboxes are brick
lined and come standard with a mesh curtain for
spark protection. These fireplaces are often referred
to as a "zero clearance" fireplace because
of their minimal clearance required to walls and
combustibles. A double-walled chimney pipe must
run vertical and terminate at the top of the roof
line for venting.
The fireplaces range from standard
sizes 36"-42" openings up to 52"
openings in more deluxe models. The basic fireplace
are not intended to be efficient heat sources.
The chimney damper must
remain open while the fireplace is burning. These
fireplaces are available smooth faced (so that
your facing material can completely cover the
box) or louvered (vents that allow for an optional
fan). The firebox can easily be converted to gas
logs at a later time. Optional glass doors are
available to reduce heat loss when the fire is
out.
