The Cremation System
The Lakefield Crematorium features a state of the art Crawford C1000H computer controlled Cremation System. This system was chosen because of its high level of engineering with zero emissions, far below the minimum acceptable emissions set by the EPA standards for crematoria.
The stack includes a Continuous Emission Monitoring System that records the carbon monoxide and oxygen levels. This allows the operator better control of the cremation process and indicates when preventative measures are necessary, if there is excessive carbon monoxide, long before there is a problem with smoke.
The Cremation System is computer monitored and records the operating temperatures and emissions for each cremation.
The Pond Garden Feature was integrated into the landscaping design to give a picturesque foreground, incorporating a limited number of in-ground Cremation Lots. It creates a special place for sitting and contemplation.
