The Larbet
The Larbet is a Georgian style cast iron hob grate c 1800. It is designed to fit in a brick or stone enclosure and be corbelled back to the flue. The flat plates or hobs are for cooking and heating. The ashes fall into the space below the grate. Only available for solid fuel use. Further Information If using solid fuels please be aware that they will discolour polished or brass products. If this is a concern we recommend selecting a black finish. Fitting Solid Fuel The fitting of our products must be carried out or supervised by a Hetas qualified solid fuel engineer. A list of qualified engineers is available from www.hetas.co.uk Care of your Fireplace To keep your fireplace in prime condition please follow these simple care instructions. For full polish finish: Keep oiled using a thin coat of a light oil such as 3 in 1 oil. This treatment should be carried out twice a year. Any surface rust should be removed using a fine wire wool and then re-oiled. Avoid exposing the cast iron surface to moisture. For Highlight/Black finish: Coat with an iron paste and buff up to enhance the finish of your fireplace. This should be carried at least once a year. Do not use spray polish or any other method of cleaning than above. Cast iron is a natural material, which is subject to minor imperfections and should be considered part of its characteristic.
