Page 6: Installation Process And Product Description
Create the Cavity Install electrical / gas Install appliance and Finish installation, connections and flue finish cavity fit fascia and test system appliance Section B Section C, D Section E Section F Product Description: The Escea DL series gas fire is a room sealed gas appliance designed to be built into a cavity. These appliances are flued using co-linear flexible aluminium flue connected to a powerflue terminal. The user will control their fire with the Radio Frequency (RF) remote that will normally be left in its wall mount cradle. In addition to the RF remote the appliance has a single auxiliary On/Off button on the unit. When not in operation it is in a standby mode unless it is physically isolated from the mains supply. -
Page 7: A3 Product Dimensions
Product Dimensions: Creating the Cavity Cavity Shape: The DL850/DL1100 is suitable for both timber framed and masonry cavities. For a masonry cavity the inside width of the cavity must be at least 960mm (DL850) or 1260mm (DL1100) to fit the appliance and must be at least 600mm deep to accommo- date the flue connections. A timber framed cavity can be shaped to suit. The cavity shape will be dependent on two things: -the flue configuration (section B2) -the fascia (section B3) - Page 8 Flue Configuration (If less than 4m flue length is required): If your flue system is less than 4m long (as shown in diagrams below), then a simple flex- ible flue is required. If you wish to install a longer flue run, up to 12m, see section B3. Horizontally Terminated: (utilises the escea horizontal power flue enclosure kit) The horizontal offset of the terminal can be any amount up to the total flue length listed below. Please consult with Escea’s technical staff if your intended flue configuration steps outside of the bounds of the flue configurations shown below. Y Maximum = 1.5m Y Minimum = 0m X Maximum = 4m X Minimum = 0m X + Y Maximum = 4m Y Maximum = 4m Y Minimum = 0m...

Page 10: B2 Flue Configuration (If Less Than 4M Flue Length)
Flue Configuration (If more than 4m flue length is required): f your flue system is greater than 4m long (as shown in diagrams below), then a flexible flue with condensate trap and rigid PP tube flue lengths is required. If you wish to install a longer flue run, up to 12m, see section B3 1.2m Co-axial Flue Vertical Powerflue Ø80mm / Ø100mm PP Tube Ø100mm Condensate Trap Ø80mm / Ø100mm Flexible Flue 12m MAX ESCEAWALL TERMINAL Ø80mm / Ø100mm PP Tube Ø100mm Condensate Trap Ø80mm / Ø100mm... - Page 11 Installing a Condensation Trap (If more than 4m flue length) Internal condensate drainage pipework must be a minimum of 19mm ID (typically 22mm OD) plastic pipe and this should “fall” at least 45mm per metre away from the condensate collector, taking the shortest practicable route to the termination point. The first component of the condensate discharge system should be a ‘U’ trap or syphon with a mini- mum trap height of 75mm. The use of a syphon would be the preferred method when discharging to an external termination point. However care must be taken when installing the syphon to ensure that it is mounted to manufacturer’s instructions. In order to minimise the risk of freezing during prolonged periods of very cold weather, one of the following methods of terminating condensate drainage pipe should be adopted: 1: INTERNAL TERMINATION: Wherever possible, the condensate drainage pipe should be terminated at a suitable internal foul water discharge point such as (a) an internal soil and vent stack or (b) an internal kitchen or bathroom waste pipe, washing machine waste pipe etc. A suitable permanent connection to the foul waste pipe should be used. If connecting into the waste of a sink or basin the ‘U’ trap or syphon should be at least 100mm above the height of the sink or basin. The possibility of waste pipes freezing downstream of the connection point should be considered when determining a suitable connection point - e.g. a slightly longer pipe run to an internal soil stack may be preferable to a shorter run connecting into a kitchen waste pipe discharging directly through the wall to an external drain. Where “gravity discharge” to an internal termination is not physically possible (e.g. the discharge point is above the appliance location, or access is obstructed by a doorway), or where very long internal pipe runs would be required to reach a suitable discharge point, the following measures may be adopted - 2: USE OF A CONDENSATE PUMP (TO AN INTERNAL TERMINATION): Condensate can be removed using a proprietary condensate pump.

Page 12: B3 Fascia
Fascia: The cavity shape is dependent on the fascia type. There are three fascia types available with the DL850 and DL1100: Velo (4 Sided) Rado Quadrato The Velo and Quadrato fascias sit proud of the finished wall surface and have a simple cavity shape. The cavity may be constructed from combustible materials. The Rado fascia sits flush with, or inset from, the finished wall surface and has a more complex cavity shape. The cavity framing and wall facing for a minimum of 300mm directly above the Rado fascia must be constructed from non-combustible materials. Please check the style of fascia before commencing the building of the cavity to the dimensions shown below. The cavity for Velo and Quadrato fascias may be constructed from combustible timber framing materials. Note: It is not necessary to line the sides, top or back of the cavity.

Page 15: Installing The Electricity And Gas To The Appliance
Installing the Electricity and Gas to the Appliance Power Supply: Whilst the cavity is being created consideration should be given to appropriate location of a standard 3 pin, EARTHED 230/240V power outlet. This must be within 1.0m of the rear bottom left hand corner of the appliance. IMPORTANT: Locating the power outlet within the cavity makes the installation very neat but the provision MUST be made to be able to switch the power supply off and on (electrical isolation switch) and MUST be accessible after the heater has been installed. This is normal- ly done by means of a separate switch which must be located adjacent to the appliance as per AS/NZS 5601.1.2010. -
Page 16: C3 Gas Pipe Sizing
Gas Pipe Sizing: Gas pipe should be sized as per the requirements of AS/NZS 5601. The pipe sizing must be sufficient to deliver the following volume of gas to the heater with all other gas appli- ances in the home running at the same time: DL850 Gas Consumption = 38MJ/hr DL1100 Gas Consumption = 43Mj/hr Gas Pipe Position: Regulator Inlet gas connection Gas pipe entry positions The DL850 / DL1100 has 2 possible entry points for gas pipe, on the rear right corner and the front right. Each is sealed by a ‘knock-out’ . Remove only the knock-out which you re- quire, and place the supplied rubber plug into the hole. You will need to make a small cut into the rubber plug to allow the gas pipe to pass through, keeping the plug as air-tight as possible. The gas connection on the appliance is a ½” female BSP at the very front right of the ap- pliance. This section of the piping will need to be flexible to allow for pipe disconnection and firebox removal. Gas Isolating Valve: It is recommended that a gas isolating valve be installed as close to the regulator on the gas inlet side as possible with easy access if the fascia is removed. This will allow for easier... -
Page 17: Installing The Flue
Installing the flue For Horizontally terminated flue, see section D1. For Vertically terminated flue, see section D1 Horizontal Powerflue Description Note: The appliance is designed only to operate using the approved flexible flue supplied by Escea. Other brands of flue may not fit, and this will affect the appliance warranty. The Horizontal Powerflue Wall Terminal must be installed in the correct orientation. This allows for the correct operation of the flue system and prevents the ingress of rain. The Horizontal Powerflue Wall Terminal must be weather-tight when installation is com- plete to prevent damage to the dwelling. It must be installed by a suitably qualified person. Access to the powerflue from the outside must be provided for servicing, and this should be taken into consideration when installing in tall buildings. -
Page 18: D2 Installing In Accordance With Relevant Codes
D2 Installing in Accordance with Relevant Codes: The location of the Horizontal Powerflue Wall Terminal must be installed in accordance with AS/NZS 5601 and any other relevant building codes. If possible, avoid installing the Horizontal Powerflue Wall Terminal in areas exposed to high winds and extreme weather. Some of the minimum clearances for a fan assisted wall terminal are listed below; please refer to AS/NZS 5601 Gas installation standard for full guidance on the design of the flue system. Where possible allow a greater clearance.

Page 21: D6 Installation The Restrictor Plate (Vertical Power Flue Only)
D7 Running the Flue Run the Ø100mm and Ø75mm flexible aluminium hoses from the cavity to the rear of where the Horizontal or Vertical Powerflue Terminal will be installed. The flue system for the DL850 / DL1100 is zero rated, so no spaces are required between the flue and any timber framing. Allow enough stretch in the flexible aluminium flue to allow it to be able to protrude through the wall/ceiling to enable it to be connected to the Powerflue Terminal. It is advisable to secure the flexi flue at regular intervals to prevent vibration and move- ment. Steel wire or ‘builders strapping’ may be used for this purpose. -
Page 22: Installing The Appliance
Note: Ensure the wall has been lined and finished (gib stopped/painted/covered) before starting the appliance install. Plug the powerflue electrical cable into the appliance in the back right hand side. With the appliance electrical cord plugged into the outlet in the cavity, carefully place the appliance on the cavity base and push it into the cavity. Bring the gas connection through the outer shell of the appliance and connect it to the regulator on the bottom right hand side of the appliance. The gas pipe should have already been tested as per section C. Regulator Inlet gas connection Gas pipe entry positions Note: The regulator that is supplied with the fire MUST NOT BE REMOVED. Removal of the regulator, or replacing it with one not intended for use with an Escea fire, will void the limited appliance warranty. Connecting the Network Cable If a network cable is being installed for a wired connection to an internet router/network (as per Section C2) then bring the cable through the chassis as described earlier and attach it to the correct socket inside the electronic tray. Remove the electronic tray by unscrewing the two screws at the... -
Page 23: E3 Connecting The Flue
Replace the lid and electronic tray by reversing the steps above. Ensure the network cable does not interfere with the pressure switch hoses beneath the firebox and does not rest against the firebox bottom surface. Connecting the Flue Remove the lid of the appliance by removing the two screws on either side of the top front of the appliance. If there is not enough room to reach into the cavity the appliance may need to be pulled forward slightly out of the cavity. Reach through into the cavity and connect both the inlet flue (Ø75mm) and the exhaust flue (Ø100mm) to their respective spigots on the rear of the appliance. Orientate and position the hose band clamps to provide easy access from the front of the appliance. Tighten the flue onto the spigots by the use of the hose clamps (provided). Ensure the flue connection is as sound as possible and that the flue connection is air tight. Fixing the Appliance to the Base and Wall: There are several ways that the appliance can be fixed against movement: It is a require- ment that this appliance be securely fastened to the wall and base. Note: It is important that the outer fascia is used during this process to ensure that the appliance is located in the appropriate position within the cavity. Fixing Appliance to Base: The Appliance has several holes along the front edge of the base panel that have been provided to allow installers to screw the appliance to the floor. Because of a lack of access for drilling it may be necessary to mark the appropriate location for these screws and then remove the appliance and drill holes into hard flooring. Alternatively a socket set can be used to drive in hex headed screws. Fixing Appliance to Wall: The installer must also fix the appliance to the sides of the cavity using the brackets on the side of the appliance shown below. These flanges can be bent to accommodate the installation. -

Page 29: E15 Home Automation Setup
5.0kPa 5.0kPa 5.0kPa Operating pressure 2.30kPa 1.0kPa 2.30kPa E15 Home Automation Setup Escea D-Series fireplaces have a simple interface for connection to a home automation system. Simply put this allows the fireplace to be woken up and started and then shut down. The “Close to wake” connection shown is essentially taking one of the 3.3 volt DC pins on the fireplace micro controller and pulling it down to ground. In order to isolate the fireplace from the automaton system a relay needs to be used as shown. This allows you to use any nominal voltage to drive the relay while keeping the fireplaces 3.3V supply isolated. Required relay Connector Fireplace on fireplace Terminal block +3.3VDC µ From Automation system Connector and terminal block supplied by Escea Note: you will need to match the relay coil voltage with the voltage from your automaton system. - Page 30 The Home Automation connection can be found inside the DL850 and DL1100 electronic tray (for access instructions see section E2). The socket is shown to the right and can be identified by green wires. Home Automation Operation: Relay closed The fireplace will start in a medium setting until it receives a signal from the remote con- trol unit (up to 4 minutes). Once the remote has communicated with the fireplace it will turn on and begin operating the fireplace thermostatically. The remote will use whatever temperature the user has previously set and cannot be altered by the home automation system. The fireplace will continue to operate while the relay is closed. Note: If the fireplace cannot communicate with the remote controller within 10 minutes of the relay contact closure then the fireplace will shut down and return to standby. The remote controller is required to be operating within range of the fireplace for its safe operation. Relay open If the fireplace was operating with a closed relay then upon opening the relay contacts the fireplace will shut down and return the remote controller to its standby mode when it next updates (up to 4 minutes). While the relay is open the fireplace will be in standby mode and available for manual operation by the user. END OF SECTION E By the end of this section, you should have: □ The appliance installed in the cavity □ The appliance fixed to the cavity base and wall lining □ The appliance plugged into a mains electricity supply □ The selected fuel bed installed and glass in place □ The appliance gas supply attached and pressure tested with all other gas appli- ances running □...

Page 39: F5 Locating Wall Mount Cradle For Wireless Control
The appliance’s remote contains the thermostat that will sense the room temperature and communicate this back to the heater via radio frequency. A wall mount cradle has been provided for the wireless control and where possible the control should be housed in this cradle. The location of this cradle should be decided by taking into account the following factors; Simple, convenient access for the user Away from air flow and drafts through the room The parts of the room that people are likely to spend time Away from direct sun light A suitable distance away from the heater. Ideally 1.2m to 1.5m from the floor The radio frequency signal will go through some walls but for best results Escea suggest that the cradle position is between 1 and 5 metres away from the heater. Please ensure that cradle is screwed firmly onto the wall using the screws provided. Operating the Appliance for the First Time: Remove the battery cover on the rear of the remote. Insert the new “AA” size batteries, paying attention to the polarity. You should now see on the display of the remote the time showing “0:00”. To turn the fire on, press the “POWER” button once, and within a few seconds the appli- ance will begin its startup sequence. NOTE: The appliance begins its startup with a thirty second pre-start purge, where the combustion fan runs on its own to clear the firebox before it tries to ignite. During the pre-purge the remote will alternately show the remote’s “Set” temperature and a rotating segment indicator to show that the fire is in start up mode and will try to ignite. -
Page 40: F7 Normal Operating Sounds And Smells
Normal Operating Sounds and Smells: Note: Each time the fire is lit from cold the glass may fog up with condensation. This is normal and the condensation will disappear within a few minutes once the glass heats Sounds It is possible that you will hear some sounds from your gas appliance. This is perfectly normal due to the fact that there are various types of materials used within your appli- ance. Listed below are some examples. These are all normal operating sounds and should not be considered as defects in your appliance. • Fan: Escea gas appliances use electric fans to push heated air further into the room. It is not unusual for the fan to make a “whirring” sound when ON. This sound will increase or decrease in volume depending on the speed setting of your fan. • Gas Control Valve: As the gas control valves turn ON and OFF, a dull clicking sound may be audible, this is the normal operation of a valve. When the fire is switched off after being run for a while, there may be popping and fluttering noises as the residual gas in the burners burns away. These are normal and should be no cause for concern. • Unit Body/Firebox: Different types and thicknesses of steel will expand and contract at different rates resulting in some “cracking” and “ticking” sounds being heard throughout the heat- ing and cool down processes. Smells: The first few times the unit is operated, the unit may release an odour and the flames will appear orange caused by the curing of the paint, the burning off of the starch in the gas logs and the oils in the metal. This is a temporary curing process which will disappear with use. Cleaning the glass A deposit on the inside of the glass, caused by the starch in the logs, may appear as a build up after several uses. If this film is not removed, it will bake on and may become... -

The bimetallic snap disk mounted on the spigot seal plate at the rear of the fire has tripped. The possible causes for this could include: • Possibly fascia panels installed incorrectly resulting in restricted air flow at the top of the fire. Appliance Over • Room air fans may be slowed or stalled. Remove firebox, check that Temperature fans are plugged in, cleaned, and free turning Sensor Trip • The gas regulator being set too high resulting in excess heat build- • The inlet flue not being connected and the appliance drawing warm air from the cavity. Check flues are securely connected at both ends. The valve solenoids have failed the pre-ignition test. This is to detect a faulty valve solenoid.

Page 44: S3 Checking Operating Pressure
NEVER RUB THE FASCIA. The outside of the fascia’s must only be cleaned with a clean damp cloth, dry off after cleaning. The high temp silver powder coating that is used on Escea fascia parts contains certain amounts of aluminium that when rubbed too hard will oxidise leaving a black smudge that cannot be removed. - Page 45 directly outwards. Note: Be careful of any flash- ing that may have been installed above the terminal. Removing this plate gives complete access to the fan for servicing or replacement. Check that all the seals are still intact. Check the fan electrical terminals, motor and impellor are not corroded. Ensure there is no signs of leakage in or around the terminal. When reassembling the terminal, line up the round silicon grommets with the outlet tube of the fan and push the cowl back into place. Ensure all seals are still in place and replace all of the screws to hold the cowl in the correct position. Servicing a vertical Powerflue: If the vertical Powerflue needs servicing the fan can be accessed without disturbing the final twin walled flue length or roof terminal. To gain access to the fan and electrical terminals remove the eight screws that hold the base of the Powerflue to the lid, making sure to support the base while removing the screws. Note: When inspecting or working on the Powerflue take care not to damage the two flexible flue pipes that connect to the Powerflue base. Once the base has been removed clean away any dust or debris found and check that the fan electrical terminals, motor and impellor are not corroded. Also check for signs of leak- age in or around the Powerflue.
