Glass doors are optional with the replace.
When replace is in operation, doors must be
fully opened or fully closed position only or a
re hazard may be created (see Figure 24).
A replace equipped with glass doors oper-
ates much differently than a replace with an
open front. A replace with glass doors has a
limited amount of air for combustion.
Excessive heat within the replace can result if
too large a re is built or if combustion air gate
is not completely open. The following tips should
be followed to assure that both the replace
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.
IMPORTANT: The glass must be allowed to
warm slowly and evenly. The tempered glass
will withstand a gradual temperature rise to
550° F, which is more than a normal re will
generate. Such materials as pitch/wax laden
logs, very dry mill end lumber and large
amounts of paper or cardboard boxes can
create an excessively hot re and should not
be burned in this replace. Always keep the
re well back from the doors and never allow
ames to contact the glass.
