Important Information:
Ceramic stove glass requires room for thermal expansion. Maintain at least 1/8" of expansion clearance when installing the replacement glass. Insufficient clearance can place stress on the glass as it heats and may cause breakage.
Mounting screws and other metal hardware also expand when heated. Do not overtighten the retaining hardware against the ceramic glass.
Ceramic glass should not be used as an automatic substitute for tempered glass. Do not install ceramic glass in a factory-built or prefab fireplace unless the appliance is specifically heater-rated and approved for ceramic glass. Always follow the appliance manufacturer's requirements for the correct glass type.
