This was an insurance restoration after a major chimney fire. Inside the fireplace there was clearance issues; this fireplace only had 4" of masonry at the rear of the firebox. We installed the Firecast fireplace that includes a 7" liner with TherMix fill. The owners are loving the increased extra heat in their home. The Firecast repair system is easy to install, more efficient and burns down to a fine ash. It works on a refraction system that heats up the back brick and radiates heat outwards into the room. Small 7" liner diameter means it can easily be inserted into 8x12 standard chimneys. Breath life into your old fireplaces. They are tested, and insurance company approved in Canada AND the US. Made in Canada by a local business. www.firecastfireplaces.com wish I knew about these years ago and would have saved so many beautiful fireplaces from being covered up or demolished.

The mason had removed most of the firebox to allow him to remove the damper. We laid brick that would contain the firecast full repair system. There were combustibles on either side of the masonry enclosure. We used the masonry smoke chamber and connected it to the existing 8"X12" clay liner. A cement board facing with metal studs finished off the installation. Owner said he has reached temperatures of almost 1000° and loves the new fireplace. If I had known about Firecast fireplaces 20 years ago I would have recommended them for all the owners who got me to insulate and drywall over their old fireplaces. This gives a relatively inexpensive second chance to heritage fireplaces and renewed efficiency for existing fireplaces.

I will now be including firecast fireplace installations, chimney sweeping and masonry contracting along with renovations! Locally owned and manufactured these fireplace inserts are more efficient, hotter and safer than regular wood fireplaces, they can be put on the floor 0 clearance, and are amazing, I am working directly with the manufacturer! Check it out!
