COSHH Regulations
This product contains Refractory Ceramic Fibres (R.C.F.)
which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres. Excessive
exposure to these materials may cause temporary irritation
to eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Care must be taken when
handling these articles to ensure the release of dust or fibres
is kept to a minimum.
To ensure that the release of fibres from these articles is
kept to a minimum, during installation and servicing it is
recommended that a H.E.P.A. filtered vacuum is used to
remove any dust, soot or other debris accumulated in and
around the appliance. This should be performed before and
after working on the installation.
It is recommended that any replaced item(s) are not broken
up but sealed within heavy duty polythene bags and clearly
labelled “R.C.F. 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
