About a 1/4" gap. If it will really double in size it should be fine. The stove is an Ashley ASH1B. Don't bother Googling it. I think I have the...
My last set of cats (2-2x2x7 canned) needed replacement. When I put them in 5 years ago, I went to a local stove store and got 1/4" gasket to wrap...
Love mine too. No complaints. After the warranty is up and I free it from it's EPA constraints, I will love it more !

I'm cheap. I use (or I should say my wife uses) some sort of hydrogen peroxide concoction that she makes. Works better than anything I've bought...
Would like to try them, but they don't come in the correct size for my stove. At least on Condar's site there is a limited size selection. I like...
In my case I just called Condar and ordered new ones. Went to clean them yesterday and they crumbled. A mere 5 years of punishment was all they...
