Hopewell Furnace was an early American industrial community that flourished in Pennsylvania from 1771 to 1883, producing iron and iron objects for sale. It is now a part of the National Park System. Our fireback reproduces an original Hopewell trademark design. Today you can add that touch of elegance and history to your own fireplace with this fascinating piece of Americana. While many people think of our Firebacks as being purely decorative, solid cast iron firebacks first absorb and then radiate the heat directly into the room, making the fireplace much more efficient at heating the house. They also protect firebrick, increasing the life of the firebox and helping to prevent further damage to an aging fireplace. Firebacks are designed to rest on the floor of the hearth, but fireback supports may also be used to hold the fireback upright and raise it off the hearth if extra height is desired. All our firebacks are designed for use with both gas logs and wood burning fireplaces, even becoming popular as a decorative element behind the kitchen stove. Minuteman International has been serving fireplace and wood-heating needs for 40 years, with a full line of decorative and functional accessories, from tool sets and screens, to wood stove steamers and hearth gloves.
