CheckingGaskets

Anairtightsealatthedooropeningiscrucialtoproperstoveperformance.Anyairleaksinthisareacan

notonlycauseadirty,inefficientburnbutcanalsoposeaserioussafetythreat.Becauseofthis,thedoor

gasketshouldalwaysbemaintainedingoodcondition,andreplacedannuallyorsoonerifnecessary.Gasket

tightnesscanbecheckedusingthe“dollar‐bill”method:

 Placeadollarbillbetweenthegasketandthestovebody(atthelocationwherethegasket

meetsthestove).

 Closethedoortightlyandattempttopullthedollarbillout.Ifthedollarbillslidesinandout

easily,thegasketneedstobereplaced.Thistest

shouldberepeatedaroundtheentiregasket

perimeter,asgasketswillsometimessealtightlyononeside,butwillbewornandsealpoorly
