The 48" wide Rumford is a big dramatic fireplace. Unless it's in a room of 400 or more square feet of floor area and with a high ceiling, it will simply provide too much heat. A small fire in a big fireplace is not as efficient as a big fire in a small fireplace. The 48" and larger Rumfords are sometimes used to build big kitchen cooking fireplaces which are not particularly efficient but are certainly traditional, functional and attractive. We can help with bread oven designs and cooking cranes.
Superior Clay Corporation manufactures many different throats, smoke chambers and clay flue liners for Rumford fireplaces as well as Standard masonry fireplaces. Custom sizes and design help available.
