15. SERVICING & PARTS REPLACEMENT
It is recommended that, at least once a year, the appliance is disconnected and the
fireplace opening checked and cleared of any debris.
This product uses a burner gasket containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF). If
the burner surface is not made of wire mesh then this will also be made of
Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres.
Excessive exposure to these materials may cause irritation to eyes, skin and
respiratory tract. Consequently, it is important not to touch or disturb the burner
surface to ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum. To ensure that the
release of fibres from these RCF articles is kept to a minimum, during installation
and servicing we recommend that you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any
dust and soot accumulated in and around the fire before and after working on the
fire. Do NOT vacuum the burner surface. When replacing the the burner surface
we recommend that the replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within a
heavy duty polythene bag, clearly labelled as RCF waste. This is not classified as
“hazardous waste” and may be disposed of at a tipping site licensed for the
disposal of industrial waste. Protective clothing is not required when handling
these articles, but we recommend the use of suitable gloves to prevent irritation.
We also 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.
