ABSTRACT:
A space heater for use with fireplaces in which a metal unit is adapted to be placed in the fireplace near the rear wall but spaced therefrom and being mounted on a leg-like support structure which positions the unit above the normal level of the fire so that the hot gases and smoke will circulate on both the front and the rear sides of the unit as they pass from the fire to the flue. The unit is relatively narrow in the forward and rearward directions and elongated laterally, and contains a chamber in which a series of baffles preferably direct the circulating air through in a circuitous path. An inlet is provided with a tubular conduit connecting the inlet with the front of the fireplace and an outlet with a tubular conduit connecting the outlet with the space to be heated. A blower normally placed on the intake side of the chamber causes the air to flow from the room through the chamber where it is heated and then discharged into the room. A spacer is provided on the rear side of the unit to hold the unit in spaced relation to the rear wall of the firebox and the legs may be adjustable to obtain the most optimum height of the unit above the level of the wood or other fuel in the fireplace. The unit and connecting conduits can be readily inserted in and removed from the fireplace and, when the unit is in the fireplace, the fireplace can be used in the normal manner while the unit provides additional heat to the room or other space being heated thereby.
