Heatup/Dryout Schedule
See ANH Dryout Schedule 1—Standard Castables and Gunning Castables.
Installation Guidelines
See ANH Installation Guidelines LCC-2—Low Cement Castables—Pumpable.
If castable material is installed without a permeable and unobstructed path to allow water removal from the lining through the cold face during dry
out then weep holes and/or wicking must be used. Refer to ANH Dry Out/Installation Guidelines. If weep holes and/or wicking cannot be used,
contact your ANH representative for assistance.
