Can I use a fireplace fireback in a prefab wood-burning fireplace?

No, these firebacks are intended for use in brick/masonry fireplaces. Using these in a manufactured unit can result in excessive heat, warping the metal interior.

Are these big enough boots for a 20-inch fireback?

Either of the Saf-T Boots will work with any of the Pennsylvania firebacks. The only differences between sizes are the height of the boot and how high the fireback will sit in the rear of the fireplace.

from Webster, NY asked:
April 13, 2021
Do you need feet for all firebacks? How much height do they add?
1 Answer
The firebacks will work without the feet, however the panel will need to have the bottom placed further forward in the firebox to keep the panel from falling forward. The feet typically only add 1" to the height of the panel.

Heavy and robust -
These feet for the fireback are solid and heavy. I wish that they had a small filler piece I could place below the fireback in the adjustment slots. To fit the profile of our fireplace, we needed to use one of the upper positions, and have to be more careful with adding logs. Not a big deal.

Just Right
These boots were just right to support a new fireback which is quite heavy and needs a stout support.
Heavy duty
A bit pricey
