Positive review-Great product
The Spitfire does a great job heating an area approx. 17feet X 40feet. Within 1/2 hour we felt a difference in the amount of heat in our two rooms. This is really going to cut down on our electric bill.

Spitfire fireplace heater
We received my "Spitfire heater" on New Year's Eve night and decided to stay home and try it out. We were very satisfied with the initial heat output of the unit for my masonary fireplace. I wanted to increase the efficiency of the fireplace but did not want to spend $3500 for a fireplace insert. I have used the unit over several days and it does put out considerable heat with the two speed fan on high. There is no smoke entering the room from the unit. The fan noise is moderate at high speed and fairly quiet at the low speed. The space we are heating is a large great room area with 12 foot ceilings so I did not expect it to keep the area toasty by itself but if I warm it up with our furnace first it does maintain the room at an acceptable level. Since I have had the unit for only a couple of weeks I cannot report on its durability but I am satisfied with its heat output. My only negative would be the asking price of $460 which seems a little steep for a device who's parts might run $75 but I guess you are paying for the technology. I will also be interested to see how long the fan lasts since to replace it is over $100.

blower/size of grate
This product takes longer than I expected to heat the living room off the fireplace room. There is an open entryway directly in front of the fireplace. The blower faces directly into the living room, yet it takes most of the day to make the living room comfortable. The size of the grate tubes I would of liked them to have been bigger around . At some point I will replace the blower for a more powerful one. - Thank you, Bill
