Door & Glass Gasketing for Wood Stoves

Fireproof fiberglass gaskets are used around the doors and/or glass windows of your wood stove to help assure optimal burning by stopping air leaks into your stove. Properly installed gasketing will greatly improve burn times on wood stoves and help keep stove glass cleaner.

To choose the diameter for replacement, measure the channel into which the gasket will be installed, or measure the existing gasket for best replacement size. Deep channels should use round rope gasketing while flatter channels should use tape gasket.
 

INSTALLATION TIPS:

-Remove old gasket material. (If it's intact, measure it so you'll know the best replacement size for your stove).

-Thoroughly clean away all the old adhesive. A wire wheel on a drill works great, or try steel wool. A clean metal surface is necessary for good adhesion.

-It's best to install gasketing beginning at the top corner of the door opening, since this makes the joining seam less susceptible to loosening by hot coals and ashes.

-After installing new gasketing, close the doors to press the gasketing into place. THEN OPEN THE DOORS; allow 24 hours for the adhesive to set up properly before closing the door and burning your stove.
