Replacement Side Glass for Appalachian 36-BW Stove

Overview: 

Replace damaged side glass on your Appalachian 36-BW stove with a custom-cut ceramic glass panel made for high-temperature stove applications. This replacement measures 10 7/8" wide by 6 1/8" high and is 3/16" thick, with a subtle amber tint.

Ceramic glass is designed to tolerate the intense heat and rapid temperature changes encountered in wood, coal, and pellet stove applications. Proper fit and installation are essential. Always verify your stove model, glass location, and measurements before ordering.

Key Features:

• Designed as replacement side glass for the Appalachian 36-BW
• Custom-cut ceramic glass for high-temperature stove applications
• Measures 10 7/8" wide x 6 1/8" high

Important Information: 

Ceramic stove glass requires room for thermal expansion. Maintain at least 1/8" of expansion clearance when installing this panel. Insufficient clearance can place stress on the glass as it heats and may cause breakage.

Mounting screws, clips, and other metal hardware also expand when heated. Do not overtighten mounting hardware against the glass.

Ceramic glass should not automatically be substituted for tempered glass. Do not install ceramic glass in a factory-built or prefab fireplace unless the appliance is specifically approved or heater-rated for that application. Always follow the appliance manufacturer's requirements for the correct replacement glass.

FAQs:

Q: What temperature can the glass withstand?
A: The ceramic glass is rated to withstand temperatures up to 1250°F.

Q: How much room should I leave for expansion?
A: Allow at least 1/8" of room for thermal expansion. The glass should not be installed tightly against the surrounding frame or hardware.

Q: Should I tighten the retaining hardware firmly against the glass?
A: No. Avoid overtightening screws, clips, or other mounting hardware. Metal components expand when heated, and excessive pressure can damage the glass.

Q: Can I use this ceramic glass to replace tempered fireplace glass?
A: Not unless the appliance manufacturer specifically approves ceramic glass for that application. Factory-built and prefab fireplaces require the glass type specified for the appliance.
