Original Du Cane Court Brochure – Dust Chutes – Page 8

Page 8 depicts the Dust Chutes and reads as follows;

DUST CHUTES
No. 1. Illustration shows Hop- per closed and in position by sink.
No. 2. Illustration shows garbage being deposited into Hopper.
No. 3. Illustration shows con- tainer in basement being removed for disposal of contents.
A special feature of every flat and maisonette in the first section of Du Cane Court is the method employed for the immediate dis- posal of dust and garbage. Close to the sink a Hopper has been installed, into which dust and garbage is deposited. The refuse is thus conveyed to a container in the basement. These contain- ers are daily emptied, and the contents disposed of by incinera- tion. See illustrations.
These individual dust chutes are only available in the first section.
