Abstract

The filtered aromatic fireplace heat recovery system may include an intake blower that intakes air from a room; a heat exchanging means that receives and heats air from the intake blower; and an output blower that evenly distributes the heated air into a room. In some embodiments, the system may include a filter means located within the intake blower and/or the output blower that filters pollutants, particulates, offensive odors, and toxins given off by the fuel burned within the fireplace. The system may also include a fragrance dispensing means located within the intake blower and/or the output blower to distribute a desired fragrance within a room.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A fireplace heat recovery system comprising: 
 an intake blower;    a heat exchanging means;    a first tube means that is detachably coupled to the intake blower and the heat exchanging means;    an output blower;    a second tube means that is detachably coupled to the heat exchanging means and the output blower;    at least one filter means located in one of the intake blower, the output blower, and the intake and output blower; and    at least one fragrance dispensing means located in one of the intake blower, the output blower, and the intake and output blower.    
   
   
       2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein heat exchanging means further includes a plurality of heating tubes coplanar across and through at least one horizontal plane of the heat exchanging means.  
   
   
       3 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the heat exchanging means further includes at least one air circulation tube that is located across an internal horizontal axis of the heat exchanging means.  
   
   
       4 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the heat exchanging means further includes a plurality air circulation tubes that are coplanar across at least one horizontal plane heat exchanging means.  
   
   
       6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the output blower is coupled to an oscillation means.  
   
   
       7 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the filter means includes a HEPA filter.  
   
   
       8 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the filter means includes an active charcoal filter.  
   
   
       9 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the fragrance dispensing means is a scented disposable cartridge.  
   
   
       10 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the fragrance dispensing means is a refillable scented oil tray.  
   
   
       11 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the fragrance dispensing means is a disposable time delayed fragrance dispensing unit.  
   
   
       12 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the first and the second tube means are flexible fire resistant metal tubes.  
   
   
       13 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the first and the second tube means are rigid fire resistant metal tubes.  
   
   
       14 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the first and the second tube means are fire resistant ceramic tubes.  
   
   
       15 . A fireplace heat recovery system comprising: 
 an intake blower;    a heat exchanging means, wherein the heat exchanging means has an ornamental exterior design to resemble at least one piece of firewood;    a first tube means that is detachably coupled to the intake blower and the heat exchanging means;    an output blower;    a second tube means that is detachably coupled to the heat exchanging means and the output blower;    at least one filter means located in one of the intake blower, the output blower, and the intake and output blower; and    at least one fragrance dispensing means located in one of the intake blower, the output blower, and the intake and output blower.
