Product Information
Full details
The Chimsoc Replacement Stove Glass for the Acr Earlswood Mk3 is designed for stove owners looking to restore their unit's safety, efficiency, and aesthetic appeal using high-grade materials. Built from premium Schott Robax ceramic glass, this component offers exceptional thermal resistance, making it an ideal choice for wood, multi-fuel, and gas stove operators who prioritize durability. While the glass is engineered for a precise, reliable fit, the success of the installation depends heavily on the condition of your existing stove door seals, which must be inspected and potentially replaced during the process.

FAQs
Is this glass compatible with models other than the Acr Earlswood Mk3?
No, this specific glass is precision-engineered exclusively for the Acr Earlswood Mk3.
Can I use this on a gas stove?
Yes, this glass is suitable for wood burning, multi-fuel, and gas stove applications.
Do I need special tools to install this?
Basic hand tools to remove the door and tighten the clips are usually sufficient, but care must be taken not to overtighten.
Why is the thickness important?
The 4mm thickness is the industry standard for this model, providing the necessary strength to withstand thermal stress without being too heavy for the door hinges.
How do I prevent the glass from getting black?
Use only well-seasoned, dry wood (less than 20% moisture content). Damp wood produces excessive soot that clings to the glass.
Troubleshooting
Glass cracked shortly after installation
This is typically caused by overtightening the retaining screws. Always ensure screws are only finger-tight to allow for thermal expansion.
Smoke leaking from the glass perimeter
The door seal (rope) is likely worn out. Replace the seal to ensure the glass is correctly cushioned and the door remains airtight.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Uses industry-leading Schott Robax material for superior heat resistance
- Precision-cut to ensure a perfect fit for the Acr Earlswood Mk3
- Restores original safety and operational efficiency of the stove

- Requires existing stove door seals to be in good condition for optimal performance
- Not compatible with other stove models outside of the Acr Earlswood Mk3
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a successful installation, follow these guidelines:
- Seal Inspection: Before installing the new glass, check your stove door rope or self-adhesive seal. If the seal is frayed or compressed, replace it to create a proper cushion between the glass and metal.
- Installation: Place the glass into the door frame carefully. When securing the clips or washers, use only finger-tight pressure.
- Avoid Overtightening: Overtightening the screws is the most common cause of glass breakage. The glass needs room to expand as it heats up.
- Maintenance: Regularly wipe the glass with a damp cloth or a dedicated stove glass cleaner to prevent acidic soot buildup, which can etch the surface over time.
