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.
