Texas Fireframe Fireplace Grate
// Cool Tools
The Texas Fireframe is the best way to burn ordinary logs in your ordinary fireplace (that is, no pellets, no gas, no installation, no electric fans) and not have most of the heat go up the chimney. Going by the catchphrase/slogan, "The Physicist's Fire," this improvement on the fireplace grate permits an arrangement of the logs that forces the heat into the room. In fact, I can put my hand into the fireplace over the fire and hold it there for thirty seconds or more, but I have to lean in from the side, because the heat coming into the room is so intense that I can't stand directly in front of the fireplace.
Unfortunately for the manufacturer, this thing — made of cold steel — lasts practically forever. In fact, I've used the first and only Texas Fireframe I ever bought for over thirty years. Still works as well as it did the first winter I had it.
Check out the diagram of how it works at the website, and you'll probably have an "Of course!" reaction. It's definitely a cool tool.
