Check Door Seal, Adjust if Necessary
The door latch and door gasket work in conjunction to seal the firebox. If the doors do not seal, air will
leak into the firebox and cause the fire to burn too fast. This reduces the ability to burn the fireplace
overnight or precisely adjust the burn rate. Follow the directions below to check the door gasket.
Check the door
gasket. It should
adhere to the door
and be intact
(check both
doors). The
gasket follows the
perimter of the
door along the
outside edge (the
inside edge does
not have gasket).
Use wood stove gasket
cement to re-adhere
loose gasket.
Severely frayed
or thread-bare
gasket should be
replaced.
Follow the directions below to check the door latch.

If the door latch rod does not keep
the bottom of the doors snug
against the firebox, bend the rod in
slightly to create a tighter fit.
When closing the doors, the handle should pull the doors in and dreate a snug fit. If it
doesn’t check the following two items.

If the door latch is
loose, move one of
the washers from the

adjustments, tighten
the outer nut against
the inner nut to
create a precise fit.

Glass Inspection & Removal
If the glass is cracked or broken, it must be replaced. The glass & gasket should seal against the door.
See the illustration below for glass removal. When re-installing the glass, gently press the rope gasket
in place (use a putty knife).
WARNING:
The top of the glass comes close to the face of the fireplace. The glass must be all the
way down to prevent is from striking the fireplace when the door is closed.
The rope gasket pins the glass in place.
Remove it to access the glass.
The glass slides up
and out of the door
frame.
