Final Firebox Sealing
Sealing the firebox is essential
for safety and proper flame
characteristics.
The firebox requires liquid silicone at the
top and bottom inner glass corners after initial set up is
complete
. Make sure all log and media placement is satisfied
before proceeding. Seal the firebox as follows:
1.
Confirm fireplace log (if used) and
media placement
(see page 25).
2.
Reinstall front inner glass, ensure glass is sealed at the
corner edging. If not, massage silicone strip gasket - inner side
glass should not need adjustment. Test fire for 15 minutes for
an established flame and make adjustments if necessary.
3.
When unit has cooled, blob some clear high-temp silicone
(not included) around the 4 corners of the front glass. Make
sure you fill up any space between the glass and firebox.

Final Firebox Sealing (Optional)
If desired, for an even cleaner appearance, the silicone gasket
strips may be removed and the inner glass pieces can be
directly sealed to each using clear hi-temperature silicone.
Note
If required, masking tape can be applied to the
glass before applying the silicone. The tapes acts
as a guide to ensure that the silicone does not
accidently get transferred to either the front or side
glass. Remove tape when silicone is dry.
