On a pound basis, heavy hardwoods have about half the heating value of coal. The tabulation shows the relative densities and heat values of a variety of dry woods.

  • Page 29 This is normal and unavoidable. If the cracks become large enough or parts dislodge and metal behind the refractory is exposed, the refractory panels should be replaced with new panels that can be obtained from your Monessen Hearth Systems fireplace dealer. See Figure 34. LASS AINTENANCE For glass door maintenance, see instructions provided with the glass doors.
