Lee Yun-fei relates that it used to sit on the ground in front of the entrance to the main hall. But children don't really understand the meaning of such an object. They jump around and behave in a manner that is extremely disrespectful. It was therefore raised up higher.
李允斐指出，天公爐早期設在正廳門外地上，但由於小孩子不懂事，經常在上面跳來跳去，非常不敬，因而把它提高。
