The shovel’s simple construction is intended for routine household fire maintenance and ash disposal.

How to use

Allow the fire and embers to cool sufficiently before starting to remove ash. Use the GEKO fireplace shovel to scoop ash and small embers from the hearth or stove into a suitable ash container or metal bucket. Work from the edges toward the center to avoid spreading ash, and position the shovel under grates to collect debris. After each use, tap off loose ash and wipe the blade if necessary; keep the shovel stored in a dry place to avoid surface corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Do not use the shovel on actively burning materials; always ensure embers are extinguished or well cooled. Use a metal ash container with a tight lid for disposal. For safety, wear heat-resistant gloves when working near hot surfaces and keep the tool out of reach of children.
