FURNACE – ASH DISPOSAL
Disposal of Ashes:
When:
When ash accumulation inside the furnace begins to impede the operation of the air inlet tubes at back
of the firebox, it is time to remove them.
Do not allow blockage of the air inlet tubes.
Method:
Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should
be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials. If the
ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the
closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled. Do not put any other waste in the ash con-
tainer.
How:
For routine ash removal, slide out the ash pan on the bottom of the furnace and remove ashes and
place them in a container as described above. (
See Figure 1 on how to open Ash Pan)
For general firebox cleanout, allow the fire to die out and cool down, and then remove the ashes in the
firebox with a small metal shovel. Place ashes in a container as described above.
THE FURNACE IS VERY HOT, USE PROTECTIVE GLOVES AND EYE
PROTECTION WHEN EMPTYING ASHES FROM THE FURNACE.
