5. CLEANING THE STOVE

Advice on Handling and Disposal of Fire Ceramics

5.1 The fuel effect logs and embers in this stove are made from

Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF). 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. Excessive exposure to these

materials may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin and

respiratory tract; wash hands thoroughly after handling the

material.

5.2 To ensure that the release of RCF fibres is kept to a

minimum a HEPA filtered vacuum is recommended to

remove any dust accumulated in and around the stove.

5.3 When servicing the stove it is recommended that the

replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed into 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.

5.4 After cleaning the stove or replacing parts, carefully

re-assemble the ceramic components.

WARNING: NEVER CLEAN THE STOVE WHILE IT IS HOT.

THE STOVE STAYS HOT LONG AFTER USE.

clean.
