Victorian Coal Fireplace Conversion
The links on this page, along with the Instructions for building new Rumfords and an article written for Sweeps, will show you how to improve a fireplace by re-building it as a Rumford fireplace, or by "Rumfordizing" it.

Hopefully the pictures will show you why. But, besides making it look better, "Rumfordizing" a fireplace will make it more efficient, draw better and make sure it's safe and meets modern building code standards.
