I've owned the Northstar fireplace by Heat n Glo for 3 years, and only really burn on the weekends in the winter. Last year I noticed a crack in the baffle board. After reading a post on this site I decided to continue on and burn. I never had any problems. I eventually got around to ordering a new baffle SRV480-0510 and when I removed the old one I realized the new one isn't the correct size, the width is about 3 inches less!! It's also grey in color rather than the white one I took out.
My question is, would it be unwise to use the fireplace with the new smaller baffle? Should I just revert to the old cracked baffle? Why would the new baffle not be as wide?
Thanks for any help!
