P.E. Summit baffle insulation damage

[U&A]

My fault,

I completely forgot about the tight cleanliness above the baffle and lifted it to high when taking it out to clean and damaging the insulation board on the top of it. At it deepest point it is no more than 1/2 way through the insulation MAX.

Is this still ok to use next year?

Needless to say I’m pissed about my stupid mistake. I always like to keep my stuff in tip top shape/ clean and working well. This is basically a $400 part after shipping. [emoji35][emoji35]

The only thing I can think is it looks like i may be able to replace just the board. That is cheaper

Thanks for your input guys,
Kyle

Iv taken it out 3 times since I’ve had it and never damaged it. I don’t think there’s an issue with the product it’s the fact that I just wasn’t paying attention.

It was my dealer,that did the talking-he did not like the price of the part and the fact that it fails..

Won't hurt a thing. May loose a tiny bit of efficiency as the thinner area may let some heat escape. I have a Super 27 that I've been using for 20 yrs and the baffle blanket has a couple thinner areas but still works the same.

I was really hoping to hear something like that. Thank you sir. Being that the baffle is entirely stainless and that is just sitting on top I could not imagine it hurting much of anything but I also was not sure so I had to ask...[emoji1303][emoji1303][emoji1303][emoji1303]

Thank you

Your lucky, my Vista Classic just uses a batt of insulation, which is now universal for a bunch of there stoves, in my opinion that and the baffle design let alone heat output across the product line is terrible.
