Page 7: Creating The Cavity
The IB1100 and IB850 have their electronics compartment protruding from the left hand side of the fire and the resulting offset needs to be taken into account when installing into a tight masonry cavity.
Page 8: Cavity Base
The base must also be levelled to prevent vibration from possible fan imbalance. For the installation of an IB1100 the base of the cavity must be strong enough to support the total product weight, which is a minimum of 70kg.
Page 9: Mantle Clearance
It is the responsibility of the end user to check the installation instructions of their electrical appliances to ensure that the location in relation to the gas fire is suitable. Escea in no way guarantees or takes responsibility that the above installation suggestion will be suitable for all electrical or home entertainment appliances.
Page 10: Power Supply
10.0 Power Supply: Whilst the cavity is being created consideration should be given to appropriate location of a standard 3 pin, EARTHED 240V power outlet. This must be within 0.5m of the rear left hand corner of the appliance. 10.1 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.
Page 11: Installing The Flue System
11.0 Installing the Flue System: Non-Masonry Timber Frame Cavity: The heater must be flued to the outside via a 100mm diameter stainless steel flue that is covered by a 150mm diameter liner. This must be installed in accordance with the requirements of AS/NZS 5601.
Page 12: Flue Assembly
12.0 Flue Assembly Secure the Flue spacer bracket (G3003) to the top section of 100mm Flue and insert the cowl, this can be riveted or held in place with screws (see 12.1 Installing the Flue Terminal). Now slide the 150mm flue onto the bracket. For each section of flue a Spider bracket will be required.
Page 13 12.1 Installing the Flue Terminal Cut the flue termination to the height specified on the attached “Flue position” diagrams and leave a vertical offset of 20 - 30mm between the inner and outer as shown. Slide the flue liner sleeve over the liner and push it down about 150mm out of the way.
Page 14 Note: As per national standards, the finished terminal must be in clear air and not enclosed in any way. All the required flue components are available from your Escea dealer in both kitset form and as individual components. 600mm clearance to nearest part of roof...
