catalysts off with a narrow soft-bristle brush, 
or vacuum with a crevice tool. 

6.  If fly ash exists, or if there are suspected 

catalyst performance issues, fully remove the 
catalysts by gently pulling upwards from the 
ribs in the cast iron, and then pulling 
outwards through the catalyst access 
opening.  

7.  Remove any remaining gasket material from 

the opening and from the catalysts. Newer 
generations of stoves may not use a catalyst 
gasket.   

8.  Inspect the catalysts for any fly ash or 

clogging, and remove with a soft bristled 
brush or vacuum crevice tool.  If extra 
cleaning is needed, follow the guidelines 
below: 

-You may use compressed air under 35 
psi, air only, no chemicals. 
-You may soak the catalysts in a hot water 
mix (not boiling), 4 parts water, 1 part 
vinegar. Rinse with cold water until  
vinegar smell is mostly gone. 
-No metal tools such as gun cleaners 
should be used.  
-No detergents or chemicals. 

9.  Some warping or bowing of the catalysts over 

time is acceptable, as long as the catalyst 
gasket continues to seal. Measure the 
catalysts in the middle section 

– if the 

dimensions are outside the range shown in 
Figure 21, replace the catalysts.  

10.  Depending on the generation of your stove, 

re-gasketing the catalyst may not be 
necessary. If there was gasket material on 
the catalyst when you removed them, they 
will need to be re-gasketed during the 
installation. Beginning at one corner, re-install 
fiberglass gasket material on the catalysts.  

 

11.  Wrap the gasket tape around the catalysts so it is 

reasonably tight. Double layer the material on 
three sides of the individual catalyst cartridges as 
shown in the following picture.  

 

 

 
 

12.  Once the gasket is installed on the catalysts, 

gently push the catalysts into the catalyst 
opening until the catalysts hit against the 
back wall of the cavity. Take care to ensure 
the gasket is not damaged and position the 
two cartridges so that the single layer gasket 
edges touch one another in the center. 
Replace the catalyst access door.
