摘要：A low cost prefabricated fireplace is provided with an open- ended fireplace boxwhich requires no outer sheet metal shroud or housing as employed in the prior artsheet metal fireplaces. The novel fireplace box has at least five walls which consistsubstantially of insulating reinforced ceramic fiber (RCF) material and a binder. A modularburner system is removably mounted on the bottom wall of the fireplace box and a floorpanel is mounted on the modular burner system forming an air chamber below the floorpanel in the fireplace box. A decorative surround trim is attached to the open end of thefireplace box which serves to support fixed or operable glass doors. A log set which mayinclude a log burner is mounted above the floor panel which supports a decorative logset. Apertures are made in the sides or top of the fireplace box to accommodate an airsupply and/or an exhaust stack. The fireplace box serves as a base unit to which otherfireplace components are attached, connected or supported so that the need forconventional sheet metal is substantially eliminated. The resulting fireplace can becompleted in many different configurations using a common fireplace box which needs no

additional surrounding insulation for installation in a room.
