In episode 623: Two-Story Addition, the remodel included a pre-engineered masonry fireplace that has drawn interest from many of our viewers. What is a pre-engineered masonry fireplace? Think of it as a fireplace that comes in pieces and is assembled on location like Lego blocks. These fireplaces install in a fraction of the time of traditional masonry fireplaces, while offering the same benefits traditional masonry fireplaces offer over metal fireplaces.

The product that we used was manufactured by Fire Rock Manufacturing. If you enjoyed seeing the indoor fireplace in the episode, be sure to check out their selection of unique outdoor fireplaces. They also offer other unique products like their See-Thru Fireplace, a fireplace that sits on a wall and is exposed to two rooms at once.
