HEARTH HOME technologies ASD Series Mesh Door Kits
Product Information
The product is a Mesh Door Kit designed for use on specific fireplace
models. It is available in various models, including ASD-36, ASD-42, LSD-36,
LSD-42, VOFBSD-36, and VOFBSD-42. Each model has a corresponding door model
number for easy identification. The Mesh Door Kit is made of sheet metal and
features a screen/mesh and glass doors. It is designed to be installed on
fireplace models BUF36A and BUF42A. During installation, it is important to
wear protective gloves and safety glasses due to the risk of cuts and
abrasions from the sharp sheet metal edges. It is also important to note that
the screen/mesh, glass doors, and other surfaces of the Mesh Door Kit can
become hot during operation and take time to cool down. Caution should be
exercised to avoid burns.
Prior to the initial burning of the fireplace, all fingerprints and smudges must be wiped clean from the viewable surfaces of the door kit. Failure to do so may result in these prints and smudges becoming permanent. To maintain the finish of the door kit, it is recommended to gently wipe it with a soft cloth and, if necessary, soap and water. Thinner or abrasive cleaners should never be used as they can damage the finish.
Product Usage Instructions
- Remove the existing screens from the fireplace.
- Hang the door frame assembly into the slots located on the firebox using the corresponding hooks on the door frame. Ensure that the door is fully down on the hooks and that there is approximately a 1/2-inch gap at the bottom of the frame.
- Install the inner hood by using the bend tabs to locate it. Slightly pry up the hand band tabs to position it correctly. Secure it in place using the screws from the screen rods.
- Leave the original hood in place.
- The mesh door installation is now complete.
Note : It is recommended to have two installers handle the heavy door kit during installation.

These mesh door kits have been tested for use with specific Hearth & Home Technologies products.

CAUTION! Risk of Cuts/Abrasions. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses during installation. Sheet metal edges are sharp.
NOTICE: All fingerprints and smudges must be wiped clean from the viewable surfaces of the door kit prior to the initial burning of the fireplace. If this is not done, these prints and smudges will be cured into the finish and set for the life of the fireplace. To keep the finish looking its best, gently wipe with a soft cloth and if desired, soap and water. Never use thinner or abrasive cleaners since these products will damage the finish.
