I've posted this somewhere else I think, but back in the day I came across a fireplace that had this cool fan system built into it. It was a really upgraded looking hearth, full stone build out, the whole deal. The fan system was electronic. It basically blew out the heated air from the fireplace, but obviously did not blow out any of the soot or smoke. Iirc, the fans/vents were actually just below the fireplace, not in the fireplace itself, so perhaps the fire heated the compartment just below it and then the fans blew out the air.
You could control the velocity of the air and have it just trickle out, but it was really fantastic. Most fireplaces warm up the immediate vicinity, but with these fans, the fireplace genuinely warmed up the entire room. It was great. However, it was the only time I ever saw such a fireplace. Has anyone else ever seen this?
