The invention relates to a fireplace screen system which includes a single and/or multi-section fireplace screen made of one or more glass panels which are laterally spaced apart to provide a heat and insulation barrier construction. An air blower assembly communicates with the interior space between the panels for circulating air heated by the fireplace into the surrounding room area to be heated such that the system provides a heat barrier and insulation when the fireplace is not in use and provides a heat transfer structure when the fireplace is in use.

In a forced air fireplace screen system comprising, at least one panel section adapted to be mounted on a fireplace opening including a pair of neatly parallel and laterally spaced oppositely disposed tempered glass panels, said tempered glass panels being connected together by oppositely disposed side frames to define a chamber for permitting heat extraction by means of forced air therebetween, baffle means disposed at the top of said section for directing heated air upwardly and outwardly from between said glass panels, inlet and manifold means disposed adjacent the bottom of said section for the delivery of external ambient air between said glass panels, and electric blower motor means adjacent said inlet and manifold means communicating with the chamber defined by said glass panels for forcing ambient air upwardly through said chamber and outwardly through said baffle means, said manifold means being an elongated box-like construction defined by oppositely disposed side and end walls defining a generally rectangular configuration in side elevation, one of said end walls including a vent member defining said inlet means, one of said side walls containing, (the innermost wall of said manifold), a plurality of laterally spaced apertures, a slide bar operably connected to said side wall including said selectively adjustable control means for reciprocating said slide bar in relation to said apertures for selectively opening and closing said apertures for controlling the minimum amount of combustion air delivered into the fireplace for proper combustion with the remaining greater volume of air delivered into said chamber so as to confine and control the heat of radiation created by the fireplace.
