5. HANDLING & DISPOSAL OF FIRE CERAMICS

The fuel effect and side panels in this appliance are made

from Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF), a material which is

commonly used for this application.
Protective clothing is not required when handling these

articles, but we recommend you follow normal hygiene rules

of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area and

always wash your hands before eating or drinking.
To ensure that the release of RCF fibres are kept to a

minimum, during installation and servicing a HEPA filtered

vacuum is recommended to remove any dust accumulated

in and around the appliance before and after working on it.

When servicing the appliance it is recommended that the

replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within

heavy duty polythene bags and labelled as RCF waste.
RCF waste is classed as stable, non-reactive hazardous waste

and may be disposed of at a licensed landfill site.
Excessive exposure to these materials may cause temporary

irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract; wash hands

thoroughly after handling the material.
