9. Firebrick Replacement

The firebox of your fireplace is lined with high quality firebrick, which has exceptional insulating properties. There is no need to use a grate; simply build a fire on the firebox floor. Do not operate the fireplace without firebrick.

IMPORTANT: The bricks are very similar in size. Be certain you have the proper brick in the correct location. Measue the brick size for accuracy.

After the coals are completely cooled, remove all old brick and ash from unit and vacuum out firebox.

1.Remove new brick set from box and lay out to diagram as shown in Figure 29B.

2.Lay bottom bricks in unit.

3.Install rear bricks on the top of the bottom bricks. Slide top of bricks under clip on back of firebox wall and push bottom of brick back.

4.Install side bricks. Slide top of brick under clips on side of firebox and push the bottom of the brick until it is flush with the side of the unit.
