Clean-Burning

The tall firebox and streamlined throat have an additional beneficial effect which Count Rumford could never have imagined: by keeping the smoke at a higher temperature for a longer time, more particulate is burned, making Rumfords one of the few clean-burning masonry fireplaces. Rumfords have been laboratory tested and meet wood-burning appliance emission regulations.

Modular Components

Our Rumford fireplace system consists of a set of modular components that faithfully incorporate Count Rumford's principles while greatly simplifying the design and construction of perfect fireplaces. Fireboxes, throat sections, smoke chambers, dampers, and flues are all pre-engineered to ensure perfect operation in fireplaces varying in size from two feet to more than ten feet wide.

Traditional Beauty

The Rumford fireplace's large open firebox radiates traditional beauty and charm. While its geometry is fixed, the color, size, and pattern of the firebrick used are at the designer's discretion. Prefabricated herringbone fireboxes are available in both red and white firebrick.
