Set the ZC Glass Door frame into the ZC
Fireplace firebox opening.
○ Check that the OEM screens (if retained) will operate smoothly with the new ZC Glass Doors installed.
○ If the OEM screens will not operate correctly contact your Stoll dealer to order screens to fit into the ZC Glass Doors.
CAUTION: Screens must be installed and operate properly on your ZC-Fireplace before lighting a fire.
Never light a wood fire without proper screens installed on the ZC-Fireplace.
Center the ZC Glass Door in the firebox opening. Tighten the Pressure Screws evenly. Don’t over-tighten. (Figure 1)
NOTE: All Glass Doors for ZC-Fireplaces are engineered with air spaces around the frame and air-gaps in the gla ss.
These air-gaps are essential to help cool the ZC-Fireplace should the glass doors be closed during ope ration.
Figure 1 shows an inside fit with gaps around the perimeter of the Glass Door. Overlap style doors will have air-gaps on
the sides of the frame or behind the frame. Never use insulation or sealant on ZC Glass Door installations.
Under no circumstances should these air-gaps be tampered with or altered in any way.
Check that the ZC Glass Door frame is aligned level, straight, and square.
Replace the Glass Doors. Discard the shipping hinge screws if used. Use the color-matched permanent hinge pins that
are taped to the glass doors if needed. NOTE: Some door styles use hinges that do not need separate hinge pins.
NOTE: If the glass doors do not close properly or do not lay flat against the frame, the frame is most likely twisted. Loos-
en the pressure screws on the side of the frame opposite the glass door that is away from the frame. Move the bottom
corner of the frame out until the doors line up properly. Retighten the pressure screw (s).
NOTE: Failure to align the ZC Glass Doors properly may result in glass breakage or other damage directly attributable to
improper installation.
Replace the Stoll Mesh Screen Doors if they were ordered with the ZC Glass Door.

Operating Instructions
CAUTION: Do not light a fire until you read and completely understand the Operating Instructions that follow. If you
have any questions or concerns, please contact your Stoll Fireplace Dealer or Stoll Fireplace, Inc. before proceeding.
GENERAL SAFEGUARDS:
Excessive heat can cause damage to the ZC Glass Doors and/or loss of temper in glass resulting in glass breakage.
A very hot fire, hot coals, embers, ashes, and/or logs coming in contact with the back of the enclosure can cause discoloration or more serious damage to the enclosure finishes. This type of damage, caused by over-heating, is considered abuse and is not covered under warranty.
Do not burn trash, construction materials, pressure treated lumber and/or railroad ties in your fireplace. The intense
heat that these types of materials can produce can damage your ZC Glass Doors and the fumes from burning these
types of materials can create a serious health hazard. Dry, seasoned hardwood is the recommended fuel.
CAUTION: Stoll uses very high quality tempered glass but tempered glass is breakable like any glass. It is the opera-
tor’s responsibility to read, understand, and follow all of the instructions below and to exercise due caution. The most important precaution is to keep the glass doors open when the fire is burning. The tempering process makes the gla ss
stronger and more resistant to heat and impact but not impervious. Avoid striking the glass with logs or fireplace tools. If
tempered glass does fail it breaks into small pieces. Glass pieces may fly about the area. Never sit, or allow children or
anyone else to sit, close to the glass when the fire is hot. Use a protective hearth rug or other suitable non-flammable protection in front of the fireplace to protect wood floors and/or synthetic carpets. In the event that the glass should break, the
resulting small pieces could burn skin or damage flooring.
OPERATION:
Stoll ZC Glass Doors are designed to be used with the glass doors open and the screens closed when the fire is
burning. You will get the maximum heat from your fireplace with the glass doors open. Whether you use the OEM
screens that came with your fireplace or order new screens with your ZC Glass Doo rs, the screens must be kept
closed at all times when a wood fire is burning except when loading or maintaining the fire.
Build and maintain small to moderate wood fires. Fireplace grates and/or andirons must be properly sized to allow at
least 5 inches of clearance between the fire and the ZC Glass Doors. A roaring fire, or any fire allowed to burn too
close to the ZC Glass Doors, can overheat and damage the frame, glass, finish, and/or discolor the metal. Damage
caused by overheating the ZC Glass Doors is considered abuse and is not covered under warranty.
Never leave the room with both the glass doors and screens open. Under normal operating conditions the glass
doors will be open and the screens will be closed. Upon retiring for the evening, or leaving the room for an extended
period, the glass doors can be closed to provide maximum spark protection. Before closing the glass doors ensure
that the wood fire is under control and of moderate size or smaller. The ZC Glass Doors are designed with air-gap s
between the glass panels that will allow for enough air to support combustion and to help to keep the ZC-Fi repla ce
cool. Never tamper with, or attempt to adjust, the air gaps between the glass panels. The fireplace flue damper
should be left fully open. Once the fire is completely extinguished, close the fireplace flue damper and close the
glass doors to minimize heat loss up the chimney.
ZC Glass Doors used in combination with Gas Logs must have the glass doors open and the screens closed when
the Gas Logs are in operation to ensure adequate air flow to the Gas Logs. The Gas Log set must be properly sized
to allow at least 5 inches of clearance between the fire and the Fireplace Enclosure. Unlike a wood fire that modulates heat output, gas logs can produce a lot of heat constantly over an indefinite period of time. Burning Gas Logs
with the glass doors closed can overheat the ZC Glass Doors, the ZC-Fireplace, and/or the Gas Logs and cause
damage to any or all of the components. Read and follow all instructions provided by the Gas Log manufacturer.
MAINTENANCE:
CAUTION: The ZC Glass Doors and the glass must be at room temperature before cleaning.
Closing the glass doors to secure a dying fire may result in smoke residue or soot accumulation on the glas s. If
cleaned regularly this staining can be removed using glass cleaner or a mild household cl eaner. Avoid cleaners that
contain ammonia. Spray on, let soak for a few minutes, and wipe clean. Repeat as necessary.
Heavier, long-term build up may require the use of a glass cleaner specifically formulated for removing wood smoke
residue. These glass cleaners are available from your local Stoll Fireplace Dealer. Never us e oven cleaner.
Stoll uses high quality, heat resistant, Powder Coat finishes on ZC Glass Doors. This type of finish requires only an
occasional wipe with a damp cloth to maintain the factory finish. A mild household cleaner may be used if necessary.
Do not use cleaners that contain ammonia. Do not use harsh, strong, or abrasive cleaners.
Polished metal parts of the enclosure (brass, copper, etc.) have a clear lacquer finish to prevent tarnishing. Wipe
with a damp soft towel or dust cloth only. The use of metal polish or strong cleaners will damage the finish.
