ABSTRACT:
A forced-air heating fireplace grate comprises inlet- and exhaust-manifold ducts extending from the front to the rear of a fireplace and cross ducts extending between the inlet- and exhaust-manifold ducts across the fireplace. Cool air introduced into an outer end of the inlet-manifold duct, passes through the cross ducts to the exhaust-manifold duct and exits from the fireplace at an outer end of the exhaust-manifold duct. The inlet- and exhaust-manifold ducts, and the cross ducts are spaced to form hot-ash retaining spaces therebetween. Longitudinally extending grilles extend across the bottoms of the hot-ash retaining spaces to retain hot ashes therein. The fireplace grate is unobstructed across the top thereof so that logs of greater width than the grate can be placed upon the grate and includes an angled, vertical support in the front thereof to prevent logs from rolling off the front of the grate. Inlet and exhaust transfer ducts for communicating the grate with room air are reversible to opposite sides of the fireplace grate and their positions toward and away from the fireplace grate are also adjustable to accommodate varying fireplace depths.
