Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, first remove the door from the stove and place it on a flat, protected surface. Unscrew the mounting clips or brackets carefully. It is critical to inspect the existing rope or self-adhesive tape seals; if they are frayed, compressed, or crumbling, replace them immediately to prevent smoke leakage and glass stress. Place the new glass panel onto the seal, ensuring it is centered. When tightening the screws and washers, apply only light, even pressure—do not overtighten, as the glass requires room to expand slightly as it heats up. Routine maintenance includes wiping soot off the cool glass surface regularly and inspecting the seal integrity annually.
