Hi Folks,
Sorry, I think I posted this in the wood stove forum first. First time posting on the forum, but I have searched successfully for answers many times, so thank you everyone. My inlaws have a 2004 Castile Insert that they purchased used. This model year should have a top air wash based on what I have read. The door has the gasket on the two sides and the top. I am wondering if the door has been replaced, or if someone just put the gasket in the wrong place. Is there a way to tell if the door should be a top or bottom air wash (are the doors different)? It is the door style that has two metal tabs holding the glass in place, and has a lip at the bottom to support the glass. The glass gets very dirty quickly, however, the flame is low and aggressive in the pot, so it appears to be burning efficiently. They burn only Vermont softwood pellets (this is all that I burn in my Hearthstone and have had great luck).
Thank You!
