Description
Product Overview
The RH Peterson 24″ x 24″ stainless steel fireplace heat shield combines traditional baroque styling with modern engineering. Crafted from heavy‑duty 20‑gauge polished stainless steel, the three‑panel construction (one central panel and two side panels) fits snugly inside most gas fireplaces. Its dimensions (24″L x 24″W) and 8.83‑lb weight provide a solid barrier that reflects radiant heat back into the room while protecting the firebox from soot and corrosion. The sleek polished finish resists tarnish and matches contemporary interior décor.
Usage
Designed for residential gas fireplaces, this heat shield is perfect for living rooms, family rooms, and open‑concept spaces where efficient heat distribution is essential. Install it during a routine fireplace service or as a DIY upgrade to improve warmth and extend the life of your fireplace components. Homeowners who entertain frequently or live in cooler climates will notice a more consistent room temperature and reduced fuel consumption.

FAQ
Will this shield fit my existing fireplace?
It is designed for standard 24″ x 24″ gas fireplace openings. Measure your firebox dimensions before purchase to ensure a proper fit.

Yes, installation is straightforward. Remove the existing fireback, place the three panels inside the firebox, and secure them with the provided brackets. Always follow safety guidelines and consult a professional if unsure.
Does the polished finish require special cleaning?
No special cleaners are needed. A soft cloth and mild soap solution will keep the surface shining and free of residue.
