The Large Wood/Coal pieces and Rear Matrix in the fire are Moulded Ceramic Fibre component incorporating Silicone Binders and you
may notice they it develop cracks during operation. This is natural shrinkage caused by exposure to high temperatures and is quite
normal for the material and will in no way affect the operation of the fire.
