Product Description

The MF Fire Nova C Insert Surround Kit converts the Nova C wood stove firebox into a fireplace insert for an existing code-approved masonry fireplace. If you have an open masonry fireplace that sends most of its heat up the chimney, this kit lets you slide a modern EPA 2020 certified catalytic firebox into that opening and finish it cleanly, instead of leaving a freestanding stove on the hearth.

Key Features

  • Complete conversion kit: includes the square frame, surround panel, and blower duct assembly, per the MF Fire insert manual.
  • Clean, finished look: the 29" H x 40" W Satin Black surround panel covers the fireplace opening around the firebox.
  • Sized for real masonry fireplaces: designed for openings of at least 25" H x 30" W x 16" D.
  • Blower-ready ducting: the duct assembly routes convective air out into the room. MF Fire's factory insert configuration uses a 105 CFM auto/manual two-speed blower — call us to confirm what your conversion needs.
  • Keeps Nova C performance: the same 1.7 cu ft catalytic firebox, rated by MF Fire for spaces up to 1,500 sq ft.

Will It Fit Your Fireplace?

Measure before you order. The fireplace must be code-approved masonry with an opening of at least 25" high, 30" wide, and 16" deep. The hearth must extend 18" in front of the unit and 16" to each side. Per the Nova C insert manual, keep 20" from sidewall to unit, 8" from the top of the unit to 3/4" trim, and 11" from the top of the unit to an 8" mantle. A chimney liner installed per the manual and local code is required. If any of these numbers are close for your fireplace, call us and we'll walk through it with you.

Warranty & Support

OffGrid Horizon is a family-owned, authorized MF Fire dealer, so this kit carries the full MF Fire warranty (accessories carry shorter terms than the stove itself; blower components are covered for 1 year). Questions about fit, liners, or the blower? Call us at (302) 496-3554.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this kit include a blower?

The kit includes the blower duct assembly. MF Fire's factory insert configuration includes a 105 CFM auto/manual two-speed blower, but for a conversion we recommend calling us at (302) 496-3554 to confirm exactly what your setup needs before you order.

Do I need a chimney liner?

Yes. A chimney liner installed per the MF Fire manual and your local code is required for the insert installation. The liner is not included in this kit.

Will this work in a prefab or zero-clearance fireplace?

The kit is designed for existing code-approved masonry fireplaces. If you have a factory-built fireplace, confirm with us before ordering.

Does this fit the Nova 2X?

No. The Nova 2X uses its own kit with a larger 32" x 44" surround — see the Nova 2X Insert Surround Kit.
