3.3.4 DOOR FRAME FINISH CARE
Use a glass cleaner and a soft cloth to polish the casing. Do not use abrasives such as steel
wool, steel pads or an abrasive polish for they may scratch the frame’s finish.
3.3.5 Ashes
Remove ashes only when the fire is out and the ashes are cold (24 to 48 hours after the fire is
out). Use a metallic container to dispose of the ashes.
3.3.6 Refractory Brick Replacement
The intense heat of the fire will normally
cause hairline cracks in the refractory brick.
These cracks can be minimized by proper
curing as described in section 3.2.2. They
will not normally diminish the effectiveness
of the refractory brick. If large cracks
develop, then the refractory should be
replaced. To replace the refractory bricks,
follow these steps:
1.
Remove the side refractory brackets (6)
2.
Remove the front refractory bricks (3)
3.
Remove the bottom refractory brick (4)
4.
Remove the left side refractory bricks (5)
5.
Remove the right side refractory bricks (2)
6.
Remove the back refractory brick (1)
7.
Remove the deflectors (7) above the tubes
(Can be removed without removing other bricks for chimney cleaning)
To install the new refractory bricks, follow the above steps in reverse.
3.3.7 Door Installation
The doors must be put in place only when the
installation of the BIS TRADITION is
completed. All you have to do is fit the male
part of the hinge, already on the door, to the
female part, which is on the fireplace. To
remove the doors, simply pull them up from the
hinges. 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. (See
figure 6-1)
