C - Shaped Fireplace Grate

[Spikey1341]

I remember when I was a kid my parents had a C-shaped tubular fireplace grate. You put the logs in the middle and it drew in cold air from the bottom and threw out hot air back into the room. The only thing I can find online that is remotely related are ones that have blowers attached and for a couple hundred dollars.

Does anyone know where I can find one of these babies? I need a new grate for the fireplace and thought since I was in the market I might as well get an effiecient one.

My parents had one too. I have been looking for one for some time as they worked pretty well in moving heat into the room. When you fine one, tell me where you found it. Like you, all I can find are the ones with blowers, which I dont want.
