MAINTENANCE
LOADING DOOR GASKET INSPECTION
Inspect the door gasket for physical deterioration, missing sections or obvious leakage. The appliance front
should make a groove in the gasket material - one side of the groove (toward the inside) will often be dark or
black, and the other side (toward the outside) should be light or white. Dark smudges on the outside of the
groove may indicate an air leak. If the groove is very shallow or missing, or if there is a heavy ash or creosote
deposit along the bottom edge of the gasket, it may need to be replaced. Frayed or broken gasket material,
or a gasket that is hard and unyielding, will also indicate need for replacement. Any time a piece of gasket is
missing or is broken anywhere, the entire gasket must be replaced.
To check the gasket further, wait until the appliance is cooled and insert a piece of paper (a dollar bill will work)
into the door opening and close and latch the door. Obvious resistance should be felt when pulling the paper
out Repeat this check several times around the perimeter of the door.
LOADING DOOR GASKET REPLACEMENT
BLAZE KING RECOMMENDS YOUR DEALER PERFORM THIS TASK
1. If the door gasket is to be replaced, be sure you have Blaze King 7/8” fi ber glass gasket ready
to re-install, as well as high temperature adhesive. See your Blaze King dealer.
2. Be sure the fi re is out and the stove has cooled down. The door should be removed by lifting
up and out, off of the hinge pins. Then lay the door fl at.
3. With a pair of pliers, pull the old door gasket out of the channel and dispose of it.
4. Thoroughly clean out the channel so the new silicone adhesive will adhere and the gasket will
fi t smoothly.
5. Dry fi t the new gasket fi rst to ensure proper fi t. Do not stretch or cut the gasket. Distribute the
gasket evenly around the frame.
6. Run a small bead of a high temperature silicone adhesive along the center of the channel. DO
NOT USE HOUSEHOLD SILICONE CAULKING . High temperature silicone may be obtained
from wood stove dealer.
7. Start the new gasket in the lower right corner. Do not stretch or cut the gasket. Distribute the
gasket evenly around the frame.
8. Allow the adhesive to dry before closing the loading door. The loading door tension may need
to be adjusted, see “LOADING DOOR TENSION ADJUSTMENT”.
9. Check the fi t of the door gasket. Insert a narrow strip of paper into the door opening and close
and latch the door. Obvious resistance should be felt when pulling the paper out. Repeat this
check several times around the perimeter of the door. If no resistance is felt, adjust door latch
catch, see “LOADING DOOR TENSION ADJUSTMENT”.
10. A tight sealing door extends the burn times & protects the combustor.
BYPASS DOOR GASKET INSPECTION
If you do not hear a positive click when closing your bypass door fi rst try adjusting the tension, see number 9
below. If the seal is not tight after making the adjustment, the gasket may need to be replaced.
