The ashpan measures 29.5cm in width, 20cm in depth, and 3.5cm in height.
Yes, it is specifically designed to fit under a standard 16-inch fire grate.
It is made of galvanised metal intended for use in fireplaces, but it should not be placed directly inside a raging fire.
Simply remove it, empty the contents into a proper ash bin, and wipe it with a dry cloth.
Yes, it is suitable for collecting debris from both wood and coal fires.
Verify that your grate is elevated enough to accommodate the 3.5cm height of the pan and ensure the area is free from large debris obstructions.
Discoloration due to extreme heat is normal for galvanised metal. Ensure the pan is not in direct contact with glowing coals to extend its life.
To set up your ashpan, ensure the fireplace hearth is level and clean. Simply slide the tray into the center point directly underneath the legs of your 16-inch fire grate.
Regarding compatibility, the pan is specifically designed for 16-inch grates. Before purchase, measure the available clearance between your grate and the fireplace floor to confirm that the 3.5cm height will slide in comfortably. To care for the ashpan, empty it regularly to prevent ash buildup, which can cause acidic corrosion over time. Wipe down with a dry cloth periodically; avoid using harsh chemicals that could strip the galvanised coating.
