Operation and Maintenance
Glass Doors
Glass doors are optional with 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 26).
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.
