Documents low maintenance costs

The furnace produces a significant part of the heat consumed in the local district heating network. The utility also operates grate-incineration heating plants that demonstrate the low maintenance costs of our furnace compared to grate incineration. This is mainly because there is no grate that requires maintenance and because the refractory’s operational environment is designed to be very favourable.
