# How to Replace a Seal on a Pellet Stove Door
Pellet stoves are a type of stove appliance that are similar to wood stoves, but use pellets made of wood fibers or other organic materials. A black rubber seal attached to the inside of the door keeps air from entering the stove and heat from exiting the stove. The seal is held onto the door with a special adhesive, and if the seal ever becomes damaged or begins to fall off, then you must replace the seal with a new one.
