5. Firebrick Replacement
The firebox of your fireplace is lined with high quality
firebrick and refractory board under the bottom firebrick
only, which has exceptional insulating properties. There
is no need to use a grate; simply build a fire on the fire
-
box floor. Do not operate the fireplace without bricks.
IMPORTANT: The bricks are very similar in size. Be
certain you have the proper brick in the correct location.
Measure the brick size for accuracy.
After the coals are completely cooled, remove all old
firebrick and ash from unit and vacuum out firebox.
• Remove new brick set from box and lay out to
diagram shown in Figure 4.4.
•
If the bottom refractory board needs replacing, do
so at this time.
• Lay bottom bricks in unit.
• Install rear bricks on the top of the bottom bricks.
Slide top of bricks under clip on back of firebox wall
and push bottom of brick back.
• Install side bricks. Slide top of brick under clips on
side of firebox and push the bottom of the brick until
it is flush with the side of the unit.
