Health & Safety Advice
Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF)
Advice when working with Fuel Bed Components including Installing, Servicing and Disposal.
The Fuel Effect parts and possible Linings of this fire are made from Refractory Ceramic Fibre (R.C.F.) a Class 2 Carcinogen which is
a material designed for this Application. Excessive exposure to these types of materials may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin
and respiratory tract. Therefore take care when handling these articles to ensure dust is kept to a minimum.
It is not necessary to wear protective clothing when handling these articles but we do recommend you follow the normal hygiene rules of
not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area, and always wash your hands before eating or drinking.
To minimise the release of RCF fibres during installation and servicing a HEPA filtered vacuum is recommended to remove any dust
accumulated in and around the fire both before and after working on it.
When Servicing and if replacing these parts we do not recommend they are broken up but are sealed within a heavy duty polythene
Bag and labelled as “RCF waste”. This is not classified as “hazardous waste” and may be disposed of at a local licensed landfill site.
