Door Frame Care

Use a glass cleaner and a soft cloth to polish
the frame. Do not use abrasives such as steel
wool or steel pads for they may scratch the
door frame finish.
Ashes
Remove ashes only when the fire is out and the
ashes are cold (24 to 48 hours after the fire is
out) Open the bottom louver and the doors,
lift the door trap lever, remove the plug on the
door trap of the ashtray using gloves or a poker.
Sweep the ashes in the opening with a brush or
any similar tool. Reinstall the plug on the door
trap and pull down the lever.

Refractory Replacement

The intense heat of the fire will normally cause
hairline cracks in the refractory. These cracks
can be minimized by proper curing as described
in "First Fires". They will not normally dimin-
ish the effectiveness of the refractory. If large
cracks develop, then the refractory should be
replaced. To replace the refractory bricks, follow
these steps (see Figure 7):
1. Remove the front refractory
2. Remove the bottom refractory
3. Remove the left side refractory
4. Remove the right side refractory
5. Remove the back refractory
To install the new refractories, follow the above
steps in reverse.
