Will the WattWorks Magnetic
Fireplace Cover
work on your fireplace?
1. There
must be an exposed steel surface all the way around
your fireplace opening. You can test with a small “refrigerator“ magnet
to make sure the magnetic frame will seal properly.
Reduce
energy costs during both heating and cooling seasons.
2. Measure
the exposed steel area to be covered by the WattWorks
Magnetic Fireplace Cover. Measure the maximum and
minimum size that would fit your fireplace.
3. If
the side steel surfaces have been covered with a
non-magnetic trim surface, it may be possible to
provide angle brackets which attach magnetically
to the inside surface of your fireplace, as shown
for this Majestic fireplace model.

4. The
fireplace opening or the surrounding surfaces must
not have anything protruding out in front of the
steel surface that would interfere with the fireplace
cover. For example, glass doors may be mounted inside
your fireplace opening but have handles which stick
out beyond the steel surface and will prevent the
cover from seating properly. A solution to this problem
would be to remove the handles or anything else which
interferes with the cover.
5. The
other solution is to use the Expanded DEEP version
of the cover. It has a frame which suspends the
cover 2 or 3 inches in front of the steel surface,
clearing glass doors and handles. This frame is
one inch wide and requires a one inch clear metal
surface all around the outside edge. Call for assistance
with a photo or sketch of any obstacles. |
