What is the Superior "Builder Series" fireplace line? Are they prefab fireplaces? Or inserts?

They are prefab, also called zero clearance, fireplaces. They are usually built into a framed out opening in a wall.

Can I change the doors and the log set of the GST-8500N B Vent?

The doors and log sets are obsolete and are specific to your unit. There would be nothing else that you could use to replace them.

I have a Superior Fireplace Model HC-42 Serial #6406AO2286 and I need a blower kit for that unit. What do you recommend?

You can use either one of two blowers on a nondedicated outlet. Either the single speed version or one with a variable speed adjustment knob.

I have a Martin metal fireplace insert that has a crack in the back. Can this crack be repaired or refractory panels be used to cover the crack?

No, cracks in refractory panels should not be repaired, the entire panel or panels should be replaced. We do not have any Martin panels available (as these parts are discontinued), so we can only offer our Hargrove replacement panels. One 24"h x 28"w Panel Two 24" h x 40"w Panels These panels are about 1" thick and can be cut down to the size you need with a masonry blade or tile saw. They are suitable for use as side, rear and floor panels inside any manufactured woodburning fireplace.

I have a wood-burning Superior fireplace. I need the back and two side panels. The model number is BCF-3885. Do you have these parts? If not can you get them?

Superior no longer makes those panels. However, you can use the Hargrove DIY cut to fit panels for this unit.

I have a fireplace that has a vented set of gas logs that doesn't put out much BTU, but I am considering a vent free gas log set in my fireplace. Is this possible? Can I use the log set with the flue closed?

Yes, you could use a vent free log set with the flue closed. Now, in general, the vent free unit have lower BTU input (max out at 40K BTU) but with the vent closed you will have none of those BTU's going up the flue.

Do you have the thermal couple for svfgl-24vsp-3 model gas fireplace that runs on propane gas?

We do not have this part in our inventory. We apologize for the inconvenience.

I'm looking for a thermocouple for an SFC non-vented natural gas fireplace model #GASVF-36-N-2. The whole pilot assy. is #H4114 but I only want the thermocouple. Can I get this part?

Superior does not offer the thermocouple by itself.

I have the DVR6 CMNS serial# 005758. I am trying to find a thermal coupler for it. Do you have this part?

This is not a current Superior model and we do not have any information on it. For further advisement, we recommend contacting the manufacturer directly at 866-328-4537.

Is there a replacement for the wood fireplace box blower model no FAK-1500?

No, we do not have a direct replacement to the FAK-1500. We apologize for the inconvenience.

I just purchased a Superior fireplace, model #BRF-3875. Are there any blowers available?

We apologize, but no, we do not offer any blowers that are compatible with your model.

I have a superior wood burning insert, and I get no heat with the fan kit that came with it. What are your recommendations on buying a new fan kit or blower?

Fan kits are model-specific to the various Superior fireplace models on the market.

We have Superior model SSDVR4035CNM. Is it normal that the fireplace flame starts and works properly, stops after 20 minutes, only to start again a few seconds later?

This is not a typical performance. We recommend contacting a local technician to service your unit.

I have a Superior Model # RHD-43. Can I buy a new one and use the same chimney?

Unfortunately, no. The chimney used on your model cannot be used on a new model, as the pipe specifications have changed.

We have a superior gas fireplace model DRT3035DMN. How do you clean the side of the fireplace glass?

To clean the inside of the front glass, use a non-ammonia based glass cleaner, a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and water, or a gas fireplace/stove glass cleaner.

We have a superior vented natural gas view (front and back) fireplace #GST - 8500N. Can a blower unit be added to this model so we can get some heat from this unit in the winter time?

Unfortunately, a blower is not available for the GST - 8500N.

I have a Superior double sided model GST-8000 (circa 1993) gas insert fireplace. After a recent renovation, I need a Face/beizel kit for the one side. Would you have anything that would fit this unit? Attached are som pics of the unit.

We would not offer any option trim for older Superior fireplaces, however, it appears as though your wall is unfinished and you could cover the area surrounding and leading to the fireplace facing with noncombustible tile or stone after fastening cement board to your stud framing for a finished look.

I am trying to get information on a Superior fireplace. The date of MFR. code is AF, MODEL # is RD 4300. I need to know if this is a wood burner, or gas logs only. I would also like to check on doors and a blower for this unit. I would like any informatio

While doors will be available via custom order, the RD4300 may not be used with a blower. This is indeed a prefabricated wood burning fireplace that may have a gas line installed for using an optional log lighter or vented gas log set.

Jennifer S. from Salt Lake City Utah asked:

I have a Superior GPF-8500N natural gas fireplace, serial number 002152. Based on the appliance configuration and parts diagram, I believe it corresponds to the GPF-8000(L) configuration. I am looking for the following complete OEM glass assemblies: 036732 Glass Door Assembly, RH; 035303 Glass Door Assembly, LH; and 034411 Glass Panel, End. Can you please check current Superior/IHP inventory, discontinued inventory, old stock, and any superseded part numbers? If the original assemblies are no longer available, do you know of any replacement assemblies or rebuild options using the original specifications?

This model is not current, and we do not have parts listed for it in our inventory. You may contact IHP, the company that owns all old Superior parts, at 800-655-2008 for more information.
