Bi-fold glass doors are optional with this rebox.
They come in brushed or polished brass.
To install glass doors, refer to installation
instructions that are included with kit. When
rebox is in operation, doors must be fully open
or fully closed position only or a re hazard may
be created (see Figure 30 or 31).
A rebox equipped with glass doors operates
much differently than a rebox with an open
front. A rebox with glass doors has a limited
amount of air for combustion. Excessive heat
within the rebox can result if too large a re
is built or if combustion air gate is not com-
pletely open.
The following tips should be followed to as-
sure that both the rebox and glass door retain
their beauty and function properly:
Both the ue damper and glass doors must
be fully opened before starting re. This
will provide sufcient combustion air and
maintain safe temperatures in rebox.
The glass must be allowed to warm slowly
and evenly. The tempered glass will with-
stand a gradual temperature rise to 550° F,
which is more than a normal re will gen-
erate. Such materials as pitch/wax laden
logs, very dry mill end lumber and large
amounts of paper or cardboard boxes.
Always keep the re well back from the
doors and never allow ames to contact
the glass.
