Details
The Fireplace Heater was developed to dramatically increase convection heat (hot air) coming from your fireplace. The unique design of this grate heater super heats the air within the exchanger tubes to over 500°F and can produce up to 48,000 BTUs of heat, enough to heat a large room or two. It fits into most smaller or zero-clearance (pre-fab) fireplaces and works without power by converting heat naturally through the tubing and into your home. The tubes are made of heavy aluminized steel and are designed for long life.
Product Note: Please see additional info tab for a list of all dimensions.
The optional blower is capable of producing up to 60,000 BTU's of heat when used with the hearth heater. This blower can be mounted on either the left or right side of your Fireplace Hearth Heater. 5 and 6 tube units have a 2 speed blower (50 CFM - High, 30 CFM - Low). Units with 7 or more tubes have a 148 CFM blower with a variable speed control.

BEFORE YOU BURN: There will be a smell on the first burn as the oil in the tubes will burn off. This is normal. WARNING: If you have birds and animals in the house. They should be removed from the house on the first burn. People that are asthmatic and children should also not be in the area during the first burn.
