Abstract: A fireplace support bracket having an upright, an adjustable slide having a greater inner effective diameter than the outer effective diameter of the upright, a locking surface extending down from the slide parallel to the upright, and a pin or aperture on the slide to receive a grate whose weight locks the locking surface against the upright in any selected position. The upright includes a pair of pins for mounting the bracket to the hinges of a fireplace.

Abstract: A free-standing unit for heating air in a U-shaped channel surrounding a fire box having a pair of spaced vertical vents for directing the heated forced air to converge in front of the fire box opening to limit air flow towards said openings. Mesh in the vertical vents directs the forced air downward to be combined with the hot forced air from a bottom horizontal vent. A baffle plate depending from the top of the fire-box adjacent the flue port and an opening along the top of the doors ignite the gases adjacent the top and directs some gases back into the fire. By forcing heated air at a low level and drawing cool air from a high level, the air being heated is of a uniform temperature. A hood extending along the top edge of the fire box opening diverts exiting gases back into the fire box. A thermostatically controlled blower creates the forced air and cools the fire box walls.
