REPLACEMENT PARTS AND REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS
(Continued)
Removing and Replacing the Firebricks
The firebricks inside your wood-burning appliance are used to store the radiating heat and create a more
thorough combustion inside the firebox. Occasionally one of them will crack and require replacement.
The directions below are divided into three sections, each section addressing either the baffle (top)
firebricks, side and back firebricks, or floor (bottom) firebricks. Before any bricks are removed, make sure
the appliance is cool and cleaned out. The chart below describes the number and size of bricks by
placement.

REMOVING THE BACK FIREBRICKS
1. Make sure the appliance is cool and
cleaned out.
2. Remove the door by opening it 90
degrees and pulling it upwards. Make
sure to grasp the door by both ends. It
is heavy and can be damaged.
3. Remove the left back firebrick by
rotating it out from its lower edge (see
illustration to the right). Do not use any
object to pry the firebrick, for this may
cause the firebrick to chip or crack.
4. Remove the rest of the back bricks, one
by one, following the order listed in the
illustration to the right.
5. To replace the back firebricks, follow
these directions in reverse order,
placing the bricks snug against the
back wall of the firebox.
REMOVING THE FLOOR FIREBRICKS
1. Follow the directions for removing the
back firebricks.
2. Remove the floor firebricks in the order
listed in the illustration to the right.
3. To replace the firebricks, follow the
directions in reverse order. Make sure to
place the firebricks snug against the
firebricks that line the side of the firebox.
