Our Crematorium

The Power-Pak II Pet / Pathological Cremation System:

We have chosen the Power-Pak II Pet/Pathological Cremation System for several reasons, with Safety being a very important one. The Power-Pak II is Underwriters Laboratories (UL) listed, which is the most widely recognized measure of safety compliance. Of course, we are licensed and regularly inspected, meeting or exceeding standards of operation.

Another important reason for choosing The Power-Pak II Cremation System is its Environmental Acceptance. Independent testing laboratories have tested the Power-Pak II to state and federal regulatory standards, which it surpasses.

There is an Automatic Control System, making this unit fully automatic: load it, set the controls, and it completes its cycle automatically, shutting itself off upon completion. A lighted control panel provides easy verification of every step in the cycle.

The conveniently located annunciator panel allows the operator to monitor the cremation process from beginning to end. Colour-coded lights indicate the status of safety interlocks, burner service, and cycle times.

The Afterburner System allows complete combustion of smoke and odour, resulting in minimal particulate emissions. Retention time of gases in the after-chamber is as high as two seconds. Gases traveling in the after-chamber experience many 90 degree turns for maximum turbulence, retention, and mixing.

The exclusive exhaust cooling system cools the exhaust gases before they are discharged into the stack and out to the atmosphere. This is another very desirable feature that ensures against thermal pollution and obnoxious odours associated with hot gases.

This unit is furnished with a pollution monitoring and control system which constantly regulates and checks stack emissions and opacities, taking appropriate action automatically to prevent pollution problems before they arise.

This unit is constructed with a heavy-duty steel structure and casing to ensure consistent and thorough support of all refractory materials.

Refractory block insulates the chambers, to retain heat. We protect this insulation from damage, wear and exposure by lining the chambers with rigid, high-temperature, first-quality refractory brick designed to withstand the stresses of the cremation process.

High-quality refractory and insulating products in standard shapes and sizes are used throughout the unit's construction. Hot-surface refractories are rated in excess of 3,000 degrees F and are backed with insulating refractory. All refractories are steel-encased to eliminate uncontrolled air infiltration.

We are very satisfied with the performance of our Power-Pak II Cremation System, and the efficiency with which it allows us to provide this special service to our clients.
