I need to replace broken fireplace glass. I need advise on the type of adhesive to use. Right now the glass is held in only by a bead of flexible adhesive. I could also use a source of glass also, if anyone has a reliable and cost effective source.

Welcome to H dot C,

Did you open up the manual supplied with the stove?
 
No manual. Custom built. Inherited with house. I did find some sources for the glass but will need to change the way it is held in. I could send a picture if you're interested. It is a very unique fireplace, but now is very hard to maintain.

Yikes... so how many 55 gal. drums did they use for the custom build?.... just joking.

I imagine you can find a PDF file for newer stoves (try VermontCastings.com)that will instruct you as per replacement of viewing windows and give a call to your local glass place to cut the new tempered glass, you'll probably want to replace both of them so the stove doesn't look lopsided.

Good luck in your search!
