[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4207538, member: 15054"] If your surround in the current ornamental fireplace is brick you can radiate more heat into the room by lining the back and side walls with steel plate. You can do the same with a regular fireplace also and put much more heat into the room vs brick. I did my neighbors regular fireplace. He used to be able to sit on the brick hearth with the fire going in the fireplace and then i installed the steel plats and he had to move the furniture away a bit more and no way to sit on the bricks for very long.
