    Is this gasket good ?

    Hi, I just had my wood stove installed and the gasket seems teared up. Is this good ? I don't want to be picky with the installator but with the price tag on this stove I expect to be fully functional. What you all think ?

    Just replaced my door gasket and I'm wondering if I need to let the gasket sealant (silicone based) to fully cure before turning the stove back on. The sealant only says that it will be cured within 24 hours, but gives no indication of whether the stove can be running or not.

    The door gasket on my stove is currently the ash bar type (stove was bought refurbished). The stove seams to draw super hard. I done the dollar bill test and the dollar pulls out with no resistance. Is this the correct type of gasket or should it have the rope style? Thanks in advance!
