Why Choose the 40314 / 23852 Shaker Grate Section?

Worn or cracked shaker grates can restrict airflow, trap ash, and reduce furnace efficiency. Replacing damaged sections with this OEM cast iron shaker grate restores proper ash management, improves combustion efficiency, and helps protect the firebox. Because the grate is sold individually, it offers a cost-effective solution for maintaining your furnace without unnecessary part replacement.

Installation Instructions:

Allow the furnace to cool completely before servicing. Ensure all embers are extinguished and remove ash from the ash pan.

Open the firebox door and access the shaker grate assembly from inside the furnace. Identify the damaged shaker grate section.

Disconnect the shaker linkage or rod if required, depending on furnace model. Slide or lift the damaged grate section out of the grate frame.

Clean the grate frame and surrounding firebox area to remove ash and debris. Inspect remaining grate sections for wear or cracking.

Install the new cast iron shaker grate section, aligning it with the existing grate sections and ensuring proper engagement with the shaker mechanism.

Reconnect the shaker linkage if removed. Before firing the furnace, operate the shaker handle to confirm smooth movement and proper ash drop.

Reload fuel and resume normal operation.

Installation tip: Always check that all grate sections move freely together. Binding or uneven movement can reduce shaker effectiveness and cause premature wear.
