FAQs

What material is the ash pan carrier made from?

The ash pan carrier and shovel are made from robust steel with a powder-coated black finish.

How much ash can the carrier hold?

The carrier has a capacity of approximately 10 liters of ash.

Can I store hot ashes in the carrier?

It is recommended to allow ashes to cool significantly before placing them in the carrier. The galvanized interior helps to cool them further and minimize sparks before disposal.

How do I clean the ash carrier and shovel?

Clean with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can damage the powder coating.

Does the shovel store inside the carrier?

Yes, the matching square shovel slots conveniently into the ash box for neat and tidy storage.

What are the dimensions of the carrier?

The carrier measures approximately 23 cm (width) x 7cm (height) x 25cm (length).

What are the dimensions of the shovel?

The shovel measures approximately 24.5cm (length) x 6cm (height), with a width of 22cm at the flat end.

Troubleshooting

Shovel does not fit snugly into the box

Ensure the shovel is oriented correctly and fully inserted into its designated slot. Check for any debris obstructing the slot.

Ash dust escaping from the carrier

Verify that the carrier is not overfilled and that the shovel is properly seated. The carrier is designed to minimize dust, but overfilling can lead to spillage.

Powder coating chipping or scratching

Handle the set with care to avoid impacts. Clean gently with a damp cloth. Minor chips can be touched up with appropriate high-temperature paint.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This product requires no assembly. Upon receiving the Thorness Ash Pan Carrier Box and Shovel Set, simply remove it from its packaging. The shovel is designed to fit within the carrier for storage.

Compatibility: This set is compatible with all types of fireplaces, wood-burning stoves, and hearths where ash removal is necessary. It is suitable for indoor use.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Carrier and Shovel: After each use and once the ash has cooled completely, empty the carrier. Clean both the carrier and the shovel with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the powder-coated finish.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check the steel for any signs of rust, especially if stored in damp conditions. If minor rust appears, it can be gently removed with steel wool and the area touched up with black, high-temperature paint if desired.
  • Storage: Store the set in a dry area to prolong its lifespan and prevent corrosion.
