GLASS CARE
Glass Replacement
The glass used for the Brentwood™ is a high temperature ceramic glass
(1,400° F). If the glass breaks, it must be replaced with an identical
ceramic glass. Tempered glass or ordinary glass will not withstand
the high temperatures of the Brentwood. Replacement glass should be
purchased from a Lennox Hearth Products dealer (see "Replacement
Parts", Page 22). DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT WITH CRACKED OR
BROKEN GLASS.
Glass Cleaning
The Brentwood is designed to keep the glass clean under normal operating
conditions. If the Brentwood is operated continuously with the combus-
tion air controls closed, the glass will tend to get dirty unless the fuel,
firebox and glass are maintained at hot temperatures (see "Refueling For
Best Performance"). To clean the glass, there are a number of specially
designed cleaners. Your authorized Lennox Hearth Products dealer can
recommend a suitable cleaner which is available in your area. 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 door from the unit (see Page 6) and lay it on a clean un-
abrasive 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 replace-
ment part is available from your Lennox Hearth Products dealer in the
following dimensions:

FIREPLACE INSTALLATION

Locating The Brentwood

A. The best location to install your fireplace is determined by consider-
ing the location of windows, doors, and the traffic flow in the room
where the fireplace is located, allowing space in front of the unit for
the hearth extension and the mantel, and taking into consideration the
location of the hot air ducts (optional), outside air kit and chimney. If
possible, you should choose a location where the chimney will pass
through the house without cutting floor or roof joists (see fireplace
dimensions Page 8).
B. Usually, no additional floor support is needed for the fireplace. The
adequacy of the floor can be checked by first estimating the weight
of the fireplace system. Weights are given in the appendix. Next,
measure the area occupied by the fireplace which is normally 36" X
24-1/2". Note the floor construction and consult your local building
code to determine if additional support is needed.
C. The Brentwood may be installed directly on the floor or on a raised
base (for proper guidelines, refer to "Hearth Extension Requirements")
and a minimum of 6'8" measured from the base of the appliance to
the ceiling is required.

Hearth Extension Requirements

The Brentwood may be installed directly on a combustible floor; however,
the combustible floor in front of the fireplace must be covered with a
non-combustible material (tile, marble, stone, etc). See Figure 6.
