Door ADjustment

The door of the Villa Vista™ fireplace must be completely airtight.  To 

make sure that the door is totally airtight, a paper should not be able to 

slide between the fireplace facade and the door’s gasket.  If the door is 

not totally airtight, there is a screw on the right side of the fireplace facade 

that can be tightened to adjust the door.

If the alignment of the door needs to be adjusted, simply loosen the upper 

screw and the lower screw on each hinge which fix the door to the facade 

(note that the middle screw does not need to be loosened).  The door can 

then be moved side-ways in order to allow for a proper fit.

If there is difficulty closing the door because there is too much compres-

sion of the gasket between the door and the fireplace facade (especially 

on the hinge side), then adjusting the space between the door and the 

fireplace facade will solve that problem.  To adjust, loosen all the screws on 

each hinge that are fixed on the door.  Push the door toward the fireplace 

facade to increase the space or pull it toward you to reduce that space.

GLAss CAre - rePLACement

The glass used for the Villa Vista fireplace is a high temperature ceramic 

glass (1400° F). If the glass breaks, it must be replaced with a ceramic 

glass. Tempered glass or ordinary glass will not withstand the high 

temperatures of the Villa Vista fireplace. Replacement glass should 

be purchased from a IHP dealer.  Do not oPerAte tHe unIt WItH 

CrACKeD or BroKen GLAss.

GLAss CAre - CLeAnInG 

The Villa Vista fireplace is designed to keep the glass clean under normal 

operating conditions. If the Villa Vista fireplace is operated continuously 

with the combustion air damper closed, the glass will tend to get dirty 

unless the fuel, firebox and glass are maintained at hot temperatures.  To 

clean the glass, there are a number of specially designed cleaners.  Your 

IHP dealer can recommend a suitable cleaner which is available in your 

area.  Regular household glass cleaners will not clean creosote.  Do not 

use abrasives such as steel pads, steel wool or oven cleaner as they will 

scratch the glass.
