REFRACTORY REPLACEMENT

The intense heat of the fire will normally cause 

hairline cracks in the refractory.  These cracks 

can be minimized by proper curing as described 

in “First Fires”.  They will not normally dimin-

ish the effectiveness of the refractory.  If large 

cracks develop, then the refractory should be 

replaced.  To replace the refractory bricks, fol-

low these steps:

1.  Remove the front refractories

2.  Remove the bottom refractory

3.  Remove the left side refractory

4.  Remove the right side refractory

5.  Remove the back refractory

6.  Remove the front ceramic baffle

7.  Remove the rear ceramic baffle 

To install the new refractories, follow the above 

steps in reverse.

DOOR INSTALLATION

Your fireplaces door has been factory installed 

and adjusted.

To remove the door simply unscrew the top 

hinge from the door then lift the door (without 

touching the trim over the door) to disengage 

the  male  part  of  the  bottom  hinge  from  the 

female part.
The door adjustment has been set at the factory.  

If the fit is still not perfect, you can adjust the 

door using the hinge screws.

DOOR ADJUSTMENT

The door may need to be adjusted to be com-

pletely airtight. The gaskets’ air-tightness can be 

adjusted using the adjustment screw located on 

the right side of the fireplace facade (An Allen 

key #1/8 – not supplied - will be necessary for 

this adjustment).

Checking Door Seal - 

A one-inch strip of paper 

may be used to perform a test of the integrity 

of the door seal. Close the door on the paper in 

at least eight points.  It is normal to feel only a 

slight amount of friction. The door gasket does 

not need to be “tight” in all areas, since a small 

amount of leakage is not hazardous or detrimen-

tal to the performance of your fireplace.
