At the end of each burning season inspect the door gasket ensuring that it is not worn or loose. Replace with
proper fi berglass rope. The purpose of door gasketing is to seal the fi rebox. If the doors are not sealed, air leaks
into the fi rebox, creating a quick burning fi re. This situation is not desirable for overnight or extended
burns and
may even damage your appliance.
Replace cracked or broken glass immediately. When re-installing the glass, be sure that the glass and gasket
create a solid seal around door frame. Follow the instructions below for glass removal. You may require a fl at tool
to gently press the gasket between the glass and the door.
MAKE SURE THAT THE GLASS AND GASKET ARE FULLY INSTALLED DOWN INTO THE GLASS
RETAINER. IF THE GLASS PROTRUDES TOO FAR OUT OF THE RETAINER, THE GLASS WILL
SHATTER WHEN THE DOOR IS CLOSED.

10.6 CAST IRON GLASS AND GASKET REPLACEMENT
A. Remove the damaged gasket.
B. Apply a thin bead of adhesive (red high
temperature silicone (RTV) or wood stove gasket
cement) in the top, side and bottom gasket
grooves. The adhesive should follow the same
path as the gasket, as shown.
C. Wrap a piece of tape around one end of the 1/2”
(12.7mm) gasket and cut through the center. This
will stop the gasket from fraying.
D. Place the taped end of the gasket into the
groove, ensure it remains fl ush with the side of
the door (recessed point). Without stretching or
compressing the gasket, place it naturally along
the top, side and bottom gasket groove and into
the adhesive, as shown.
E. When you reach the end point, wrap a piece
of tape around the gasket and cut through the
center, ensuring the gasket is fl ush with recessed
point, as shown above.
