DOOR INSTALLATION

The doors must be put in place only when the installation of the Montecito Estate™ is completed. All you have to do is fit the male part of the hinge, already on the door, to the female part, which is on the fireplace. To remove the doors, simply pull them up from the hinges. The door adjustment has been set at the factory. If the fit is still not perfect, you can adjust the door using the hinge screws (See Figure 7-1)

Figure 6 - Door Installation

DOOR ADJUSTMENT

The doors may need to be adjusted to be completely airtight. The gaskets’ air-tightness can be adjusted using the adjustment screw located on the right side of the fireplace facade (An Allen key #1/8 – not supplied - will be necessary for this adjustment) (see Figure 7-2).

Checking Door Seal

A one-inch strip of paper may be used to perform a test of the integrity of the door seal. Close the door on the paper in at least eight points. It is normal to feel only a slight amount of friction. The door gasket does not need to be “tight” in all areas, since a small amount of leakage is not hazardous or detrimental to the performance of your fireplace.

WARNINGS

•Use only a Lennox Hearth Products glass doors, specifically designed for the Montecito Estate fireplace.

•The fireplace cannot be operated without a door. Consult your dealer to select the correct door model.

•Important! To assure proper alignment of glass doors: Install this fireplace in a square and plumb condition, using shims as necessary at sides and/or bottom.

GLASS CARE

Glass Replacement

The glass used for the Montecito Estate is a high temperature ceramic glass (1,400° F). If the glass breaks or cracks, it must be replaced with an identical ceramic glass. Tempered glass or ordinary glass will not withstand the high temperatures of the Montecito Estate . Replacement glass should be purchased from a Security Chimneys International dealer (see “Replacement Parts” on Page 22).

Do not operate the unit with cracked or broken glass.

Glass Cleaning

The Montecito Estate is designed to keep the glass clean under normal operating conditions. If the Montecito Estate is operated continuously with the combustion air controls closed, the glass will tend to get dirty unless the fuel, firebox and glass are maintained at hot temperatures (see section Refueling For Best Performance). To clean the glass, there are a number of specially designed cleaners to remove creosote. Your authorized Lennox Dealer can recommend a suitable cleaner. Regular household glass cleaners will not clean creosote. Do not use abrasives such as steel pads, steel wool or oven cleaner as they will scratch the glass.

Gasket Replacement

Remove the doors from the unit (see section Door Installation) and lay them on a clean nonabrasive surface. To replace the gasket, first remove all of the old gasket and gasket cement. Make sure that the surface is totally clean before applying new cement (a high temperature silicone caulking rated at 500° F (260° C), is suitable) or adhesion problems may result. Apply gasket cement to the gasket channel and install the new gasket. This replacement part is available from your Lennox Dealer in the following dimensions:
