ceramic log repair
Is information technology possible to repair a cleaved ceramic log from a natural gas unit or is replacement the just option? Information technology's a Y shaped log with 1 of the legs broken off

The proper affair to exercise is to replace the log. What blazon of fireplace is this in?

A Montigo 36DV unit, 18 years old.

As long as information technology is a direct vent unit, I would drill two holes and pin it. If information technology is vent complimentary, it must be replaced. JB

How virtually using a dab of high temp silicone or jb weld to concord information technology together???

Hi temp silicone volition burn. You may be able to employ 2 6" pieces of wire coat hanger equally pins to agree the log pieces together.

I dont know if information technology would agree but if you lot try that, I would dorsum it upward with a screw or 2 on the back side of the log. Just watch the log to brand shure it doesnt fall and block a flame port. If information technology does, y'all might create sooting that will fill you FP and the siding at the term cap.

A Montigo 36DV unit, 18 years onetime. Being this quondam I would incertitude y'all could buy a replacement. This is what I would do is buy a tube of Fiberfrax ceramic paste and repair it ( simply if the log is not damaged to bad ). Now the hard part is to detect someone that carries the stuff ( do a google search and you maybe lucky ). Effort Casey Ceramics in Texas as I ordered a case well-nigh eight months ago and it never got here so they must even so take it.

Nosotros just had another snow dump today and it is April 1, human being do I detest the snow, the Ruddy River will crest sometime next week and it is scary
. Good luck with the repair.

Hey Guru, we had 3/4" of snow hither a month or so ago.......I hate snow too !!!!!.....and it was cold as heck here today equally well. I don't think it got in a higher place 65 today.
Seriously, I didn't know yous were that shut to the Red River. Your office is on a river that flows indirectly into the Red River isn't information technology? Hope all goes well for y'all.

when building prototype new stoves, we used to inkling bits of ceramic together to get the best flow.
We used the same high temperature glue they used to glue the glassfibre sealing ropes to the doors to make an air tight seal.
You should exist able to get a like glue from a stove shop.
it was almost similar a ceramic paste rather than a glue.

In a pinch I have inserted a long drywall screw to hold the two pieces together.
