Gasket
It is important to replace the gasket with another having the same diameter and density to
maintain a good seal.
1.
Remove the door and place it face-down on something soft like a cushion of rags or a piece of
carpet.
2.
Remove the old gasket from the door. Use a screwdriver to scrape the old gasket adhesive from
the door gasket groove.
3.
Apply a bead of approximately 3/16" (5 mm) of high temperature silicone in the door gasket
groove. Starting from the middle, hinges side, press the gasket into the groove. The gasket must
not be stretched during installation.
4.
Leave about ½" (10 mm) long of the gasket when cutting and press the end into the groove. Tuck
any loose fibers under the gasket and into the silicone.

Close the door. Do not use the fireplace for 24 hours.
