Section 8: Removing & Installing Screen and Window
Removing the Screen
Follow the steps below to remove, or install the fireplace screen and door.
Before beginning any screen or glass removal, make sure that the unit has
not been in operation and that it is at room temperature.
Step 1: Prepare to Lift out Screen Assembly
Grip either end of the screen assembly and pull towards yourself. The
screen assembly is held to the unit by both friction and magnets.
Step 2: Lift out the Retaining Tabs and screen.
The Retaining Tabs are quite long and in most cases, this task would be
better performed by two people.
Once the Retaining Tabs have come away from the Fireplace, lift the screen
away and store in a safe place. The Screen is very fragile and can be easily
torn, dented or deformed. Refer to Figure 11 below.
