FIREplacE accESSORIES

GLASS DOORS

Bifold  glass  doors  are  optional  with  FMI 

PRODUCTS, LLC fireplace. For replacement, 

refer  to  fireplace  installation  instructions  in 

your owner’s manual.

Note:  Use  of  glass  doors  other  than  those 

manufactured  by  FMI  PRODUCTS,  LLC 

voids warranty and may create a potentially 

hazardous condition.

Refer  to  installation  instructions  that  come 

with door kit for installation details. Glass door 

kits  can  be  installed  before,  during  or  after 

fireplace has been installed.

4.  Air from bottom grill (circulating units only). 

Make sure fireplace enclosure and base 

have  been  insulated  according  to  cold 

climate installation instructions in owner’s 

manual.

Note: After  all  measures  to  avoid  cold  air 

drafts  have  been  taken,  there  may  still  be 

a  slight  cold  air  draft  coming  through  the 

louver and other areas. This may be due to 

circumstances  beyond  the  manufacturer’s 

control, such as airflow around the structure 

and tightness of the home (creating negative 

pressure), etc.

ASH DISPOSAL

Ashes should be placed in a metal container 

with  a  tight  fitting  lid.  Closed  container  of 

ashes should be placed on a noncombustible 

floor or on the ground. The container should 

be kept well away from all combustible ma-

Continued

terials  pending  final  disposal.  If  ashes  are 

disposed  of  by  burial  in  soil  or  otherwise 

locally dispersed, they should be retained in 

closed container until cinders have thoroughly 

cooled.

GLASS DOORS

Glass doors used by FMI PRODUCTS, LLC 

are tempered (safety) glass and have been 

tested  to  national  standards.  When  glass 

breaks during use it could be for the follow-

ing reasons:
1.  Fire is too large
2.  Logs are too close to glass. Logs and any 

burning material should not touch glass. 

This may cause glass to break.

3.  Heat has built up too fast.

Continued operation at excessively high tem-

peratures may cause glass to partially lose it's 

temper and break.

GAS LOGS

A  full  line  of  vented  and  vent-free  FMI 

PRODUCTS,  LLC  gas  logs  is  available.
