    1940s Damper Handle Missing

    I recently removed the wood burning insert in our 1946 fireplace and am working on getting it cleaned up before we install a gas log set. I know the damper will need to remain partially open after installation, but I'd like to find a handle that fits the existing damper so I can adjust it...

Outside of aesthetics I get nothing out of it, and would like to have something that is able to heat my 2000 Sq Ft ranch house in Wisconsin.

    Encore 2550 damper bar replacement

    Great forum with lots of great info. I had to replace my upper fireback so ordered a new one. Working on reassembly, I cannot figure out how the old damper bar comes out of the old fireback so that I can put it in the new one I bought. They sell them separately so I figure the damper bar must...

    Jotul C450 Air Valve Handle Broke

    So I had noticed that our air valve on our recently installed C450 had no resistance, so I checked and sure enough, the slide valve had come off the handle, so I adjusted it and tested it a couple times and it worked fine. Fast forward two days later, the handle snapped off, very little...

    Wood Stove Glass

    I have a Lopi Freedom wood stove insert. I have had it since 2009. Overall, I'm extremely happy with this stove, with one exception: The glass in the door. About every 2 to 3 years, it randomly cracks. I mean I'm just standing there by my stove, the fire's going nicely, all's well with the...
