Statement of Intended Use:
The Mason-Lite Masonry Fireplace is a modular refractory
masonry unit designed for field assembly. The firebox is
constructed using pre-cast, interlocking refractory blocks.
The blocks are then secured to each other using Mortar. The
system includes all parts necessary for the assembly of a
complete masonry fireplace. In addition to the basic enclosure,
a standard 1-
1/8” thick, high temperature refractory brick is
required to line the interior of the firebox.
These fireplaces are not intended to serve as a primary
heat source, rather, the fireplace was expressly created as a
supplemental source of heat. The unit is designed for use with
solid fuels such as cord wood.
