REPLACE THE FRONT DOOR GASKET AS NEEDED

Your Tucson uses a 3/8” rope-type fiberglass gasket to make a tight seal between the door frame and the firebox. In time, the gasket can become brittle and compressed and should be replaced. New gasket material is available from your Authorized HearthStone Dealer.

1.Allow the Tucson to cool completely. Remove the existing gasket by grasping one end and pulling firmly.

2.Use a wire brush or the tip of a screwdriver to clean the channel of remaining gasket.

3.Determine the correct length of the appropriate-sized gasket by laying it out in the channel. Allow an extra 1 to 2” (25-50mm), and mark the spot to be cut.

4.Cut the gasket at the marked spot with a utility knife. Twist the ends slightly to prevent the gasket from unraveling.

5.Apply water glass adhesive to the gasket channel.

6.Starting at one end, press the gasket into the channel. Insure a good joint where

the gasket ends meet before trimming any excess. Do not overlap the gasket ends or leave ends with ragged edges.

7.Firmly and evenly press the gasket to seat it in its channel.

CLASS CLEANING
