These architectural drawings will help you better understand how the Fireplace Radiator™ is assembled and whether it will accommodate your fireplace.

The plenum (Radiator) is 18 1/4" wide at it's widest point, 11" high and 3 1/4" thick at it's deepest point. Your fireplace opening will need to be a minimum of 18 1/2" wide at the back of the fireplace to accommodate the plenum and the unit as a whole. The smaller pipes, that screw into the plenum, are 3 1/4" in diameter. The larger pipes, that slide over the smaller ones, are 3 3/4" in diameter. The space between the pipes is 10". The perfect size for burning firewood. Note: You build your fire on top of the pipes as well as in between them. The prongs that stick up out of the larger pipes keep your firewood from rolling forward. The pipes act as your new grate. No other grate is necessary.

The total depth is adjustable from 16 1/2" to 26". Your fireplace can be deeper, but the maximum depth of the unit is 26". Your fireplace depth must be a minimum of 16 1/2" for proper fit. If your fireplace is less than 16 1/2" in depth please e-mail us at sales@fireplaceradiator.com or call us for options. You will need the length of your pipes customized and we offer that service. Note: There are no returns on custom orders.

This drawing shows what the Fireplace Radiator™ looks like after final assembly. (Note: You order your Fireplace Radiator™ with the fan box already set up for either the left or the right side of your fireplace.) This makes installation much easier and faster. The fan boxes are not interchangable from one side to the other.

The fan box has a powerful thermally protected motor. It's a 120 volt, 60 Hz Frequency, 2.7 watt, 2.2 Amperes motor. While the motor is powerful, it's still very easy on your electric bill.

The benefit of having a blower motor that sits on the outside of the fireplace is that you can remove the motor when it is not in use (Spring and Summer). Because the motor is not on the inside of the fireplace, you will not get the gum build up on the motor you will see on other brands. Because of this, you will have less heat and stress on the motor. Thus, the blower will last longer. Also you don't have to run the power cord into the fireplace, which can be very dangerous.

In this drawing we are showing you the front opening of your fireplace and how the blower box and the front air diverter bar must rest flush against the outside of the fireplace wall. This unit will fit a fireplace with an opening up to 51" wide. The diverter bar is 3" deep and 36" wide with a 7 1/2" extension (part #10 and #11) on both sides of the diverter bar extending it out up to 51" wide if needed. The fan box can not sit in front of the fireplace, but it can sit just outside of the fireplace opening next to your glass doors.
