Young Swedish Blonde Girl Reveals At The Fireplace

A wide range of accessories are used with fireplaces, which vary between countries and regions, and historical periods. For the interior, common in recent Western cultures are grates, fireguards, logboxes, andirons, pellet baskets, and fire dogs, all of which cradle fuel and accelerate burning. Heavy metal firebacks are sometimes used to capture and reradiate heat, to protect the back of the fireplace, and as decoration.
In the last several decades tubular grate heaters have become an increasingly popular accessory to significantly increase the efficiency of a fireplace and hence the amount of heat that makes it from the fireplace out into the home. They work by having a naturally convected or fan forced tubular metal heat exchanger that is heated by the coals and or fire. They draw in cold air from the floor and blow heated air back out into your home. This adds an element of conductive and convective heating to the radiant heat typical of a basic fireplace. Grate Heaters have been called many things; heatilator, hearth heater, fireplace blower, fireplace grate heater, etc...
For fireplace tending, tools include pokers, bellows, tongs, shovels, brushes and toolstands.
