Vermont Castings Encore Complete Gasket Kit
Vermont Castings Encore Gasket Kit (AW3440)
Because your stove deserves a glow-up too.
I’ll admit it—I didn’t realize how much a tiny gasket could affect a wood stove’s performance until I replaced one myself. Suddenly, my Encore stove stopped acting like it was trying to heat the entire neighborhood, and the flames looked like they finally got the memo to behave. That’s exactly what this Vermont Castings Encore Gasket Kit does: it gives your stove the airtight, energy-saving, heat-boosting makeover it’s been begging for.
And yes, by “makeover,” I mean three rope-style gaskets + one stainless-mesh griddle gasket, all cut to the proper lengths, all designed specifically for Encore models, and all ready to help your stove burn cleaner, hotter, and much more efficiently.
Why This Gasket Kit Matters
Or: how a simple gasket keeps your home from turning into a campfire reenactment.
A wood stove with leaky seals is like a water bottle with a hole—technically functional, but unnecessarily dramatic. With compromised gaskets, air leaks sneak in, heat escapes, and suddenly your stove works overtime while producing flames that look tired and confused.
This kit solves all that by giving you:
Air-tight seals that boost efficiency and improve burn quality
Three rope-style gaskets for the doors and seams
A stainless-steel-mesh-wrapped griddle gasket that’s exclusive to Vermont Castings
Non-asbestos, mildew-resistant materials because your stove deserves clean, long-lasting components
Pre-cut lengths so you’re not wrestling with scissors like it’s a craft project gone wrong
Once installed, your stove performs better, your fire looks fabulous, and you get more heat with less wood. That’s what I call a win-win-win.
What’s Inside the AW3440 Kit
Four gaskets, zero guesswork.
3/16" x 72" rope gasket
5/16" x 204" rope gasket
3/8" x 42" rope gasket
5/16" x 72" fiberglass rope with stainless mesh (the famous Encore griddle gasket)
These sizes are tailored for Encore stoves—no improvising, no mismatching, no drama.
Installation: Surprisingly Satisfying
Honestly, it's almost therapeutic.
Remove the old, worn-out gasket. (Goodbye, and thank you for your service.)
Clean the channel thoroughly. Your new gasket will appreciate the fresh start.
Use Wood Stove Gasket Cement—not silicone!—to secure each gasket in place.
The cement acts as both an adhesive and a mini hero capable of sealing small cracks and pinholes in your stove’s body. Silicone, on the other hand? It simply doesn’t hold up to the heat, so it’s not invited to this installation party.
Not Sure Which Size You Need?
You’re not alone—measurements are a universal struggle.
A printable gasket-measuring template is available to help you determine the exact size before purchasing. No more guessing, no more returns, and no more squinting at frayed rope pieces like a detective analyzing evidence.
