OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES

GLASS DOORS

Glass  doors  are  optional  with  the  fireplace. 

When fireplace is in operation, doors must be 

fully opened or fully closed position only or a fire 

hazard may be created (see Figure 33).
A fireplace equipped with glass doors operates 

much differently than a fireplace with an open 

front. A fireplace with glass doors has a limited 

amount of air for combustion.
Excessive heat within the fireplace can result if 

too large a fire is built or if combustion air gate 

is not completely open. The following tips should 

be followed to assure that both the fireplace 

and glass door retain their beauty and function 

properly. Both the flue damper and glass doors 

must be fully opened before starting fire. This will 

provide sufficient combustion air and maintain 

safe temperatures in firebox.

IMPORTANT:

 The glass must be allowed to 

warm slowly and evenly. The tempered glass will 

withstand a gradual temperature rise to 550° F, 

which is more than a normal fire will generate. 

Such materials as pitch/wax laden logs, very dry 

mill end lumber and large amounts of paper or 

cardboard boxes can create an excessively hot 

fire and should not be burned in this fireplace. 

Always keep the fire well back from the doors 

and never allow flames to contact the glass.

  WARNING:  Fireplaces 

equipped  with  glass  doors 

should  be  operated  only  with 

doors fully opened or doors fully 

closed. Doors, if left partly open, 

may draw gas and flame out of 

the  fireplace  opening  creating 

risks of both fire and smoke.

Cleaning Glass

Clean glass with any commercial glass cleaner 

or soap and water. Do not use any abrasive 

material to clean glass. Do not clean glass with 

any cool water if glass is still hot from the fire 

and smoke.
