Burnt Out Riddling Grates or Fire Bars
Common cause of burnt out or distorted grates and bars are as follows:
• Over-firing - this is often identifiable by an upward distortion of grate or bars
• Incorrect choice of fuel - this results in the distortion of grate or bars
• Large build ups of ash in the ashpan can result in extreme temperatures directly beneath the grate or bars often evident by downward distortion
