C. Inspect Firebrick & Replacement
Instructions
• Frequency: After ash removal
• By: Homeowner
Replace the firebrick if they become crumbly and/or if there is
a 1/4 inch (6.35mm) gap between the bricks after adjustment.
The firebox is lined with firebrick, which has exceptional in-
sulating properties. Do not use a grate; simply build a fire on
the firebox floor. Do not operate appliance without firebrick.
Ensure that the firebricks are correctly positioned and that
the firebox does not contain any broken brick prior to operat-
ing the unit.
1. After the coals have completely cooled, remove all old
brick and ash from unit and vacuum out firebox.
2. Remove new brick set from box and lay out to the
diagram shown in the instructions that come with the
replacement brick set
3. Lay bottom bricks in unit.
4. Install rear bricks on the top of the bottom bricks. Slide
top of bricks under clip on back of firebox wall and push
bottom of bricks back.
5. Install side bricks. Slide top of brick under clips on side
of firebox and push the bottom of the brick until it is flush
with the side of the unit.
Use Part #832-0550 when ordering individual
brick. Provide brick dimension or copy the page
in the Service Parts List showing the brick dia-
gram, mark the desired brick and take it to your
authorized dealer.

D. Glass Replacement
1. Ensure that the fire is out and the appliance is cool
to the touch.
2. Protect a table or counter top with padding or towels.
Protect your hands and wear gloves to prevent injury.
3. Remove the door with the broken glass by lifting the
door up and off of the hinges.
4. Lay door face down on a table or counter making sure
the door handle and fiber handle hangs over the edge
so the door lays flat on a soft surface.
5. Remove the screws from each glass retainer and
remove the glass. (If screws are difficult to remove,
soak with penetrating oil first).
6. Center the glass with edges evenly overlapping the
opening in the door, (i.e. same space top and bottom,
left and right sides).
7. Replace the glass retainers. Be careful not to cross
thread the screws.
8. Tighten each retainer just a few turns until each is
secured. Check again for centering of glass in door
frame. Continue to tighten each retainer alternately,
a few turns at a time, until the glass is snug. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.
9. Replace the door on the appliance.
Quadra-Fire stoves are equipped with ceramic super
heat-resistant glass, which can only be broken by impact
or misuse.
Do not slam stove door or impact the glass. When closing
door, make sure that logs do not protrude against the
glass. Inspect glass regularly.
If you find a crack or break, immediately put the fire out
and return the door to your dealer for replacement of glass
before further use.
