11. SERVICING & PARTS REPLACEMENT
This product uses fuel effect pieces and gaskets containing 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 to take care when handling these articles 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. When replacing these articles 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 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.
