Custom Traditional Hood
The Custom Traditional Hood blends old-world craftsmanship with enduring design. A perfect fireplace accent offering heat deflection and timeless architectural presence.

The Birmingham Wood Fireplace brings the timeless beauty of traditional wood-burning comfort to today’s modern homes. Designed to replicate the charm of a classic masonry hearth, this fireplace combines craftsmanship, efficiency, and performance. At Chicagoland Fireplace & Chimney Restoration, we offer expertly installed systems that merge old-world ambiance with the safety and durability of modern construction.
Crafted to deliver the look and feel of a hand-built wood-burning fireplace, the Birmingham model features realistic brick interiors and customizable finishes that reflect the warmth of natural craftsmanship. Its large open-hearth design showcases the beauty of crackling wood and flickering flames, making it a centerpiece in both rustic and upscale living spaces. Though inspired by tradition, its internal structure is precision-engineered for cleaner, more consistent burns.
The Birmingham system is designed for optimal airflow and combustion, producing radiant heat that warms your living area efficiently. The firebox and flue are constructed to draw air evenly, reducing smoke and improving burn consistency. This combination of design and engineering ensures you can enjoy the authentic scent, sound, and visual experience of a wood fire — with improved heat retention and reduced emissions.
Built from high-strength refractory materials and heavy-duty metal components, the Birmingham Wood Fireplace is made to endure years of consistent use. The interior firebrick lining resists heat damage while maintaining its rich appearance, and the outer framing is crafted to complement any interior aesthetic. Its combination of strength, detail, and finish ensures lasting reliability and style.
At Chicagoland Fireplace & Chimney Restoration, our installation experts ensure every Birmingham system is securely fitted and properly vented for maximum safety and performance. We inspect chimney dimensions, verify clearances, and confirm correct draft flow to deliver the best results. Each installation is completed with precision and care — ensuring your fireplace performs beautifully from the very first burn.
