fire reflector

Options
hi hoping anyone could help, i just bought a new wall hung electric fire with the white stones looks lovely, but the heat comes out of the top of the fire pointing straight up the wall.

I was wondering if anyone new a place where i could buy some sort of metal curve thing that i could drill into the wall so maybe the heat would keep off the wall and blow a little into the room.

I dont mean any thing drastic lol.

Sorry for not been more helpful at discribing what i mean.

    Simplest solution might be to put a shelf (a foot or two) above the fire to deflect the heat out into the room. You don't say how high you have mounted the fire so not sure whether a shelf might be feasible. You might need to consider relocating the fire.
