A portable electric fireplace constructed of lightweight sheet metal has a hollow hearth section, canopy section, and a simulated chimney flue pipe and back plate. The hearth section has a rear wall, side walls, and a front wall with an opening therethrough which receives an electric heater and fan unit. The rear wall of the hearth section, canopy section, chimney flue pipe and back plate of the elbow are substantially flat and coplaner. The hollow canopy section is removably mounted above the hearth section to overlie the upper end thereof and has a front wall extending beyond the hearth front wall with a heat deflector therebetween at the front end. The artificial chimney flue pipe and back plate is removably mounted on the wall of a room and the assembled canopy and hearth sections are placed against the lower portion of the chimney flue pipe and secured thereto. In one embodiment, the assembled fireplace may be placed substantially close against the wall of a room and simulates the appearance of a real fireplace having a chimney flue pipe extending through the room wall. In another embodiment, the coplaner back walls have an angular configuration whereby the assembled fireplace may be placed in the corner of a room. The fireplace assembly may easily be transported in the unassembled condition from room to room and easily installed by one person.
