Page 4: Product Description
Product Description: The Escea IB600 Outer Skin Kit (New Zealand only), IB850 Outer Skin Kit and IB1100 Outer Skin Kit are to be used for all installations. They seal the cavity and isolate the fire from air pressure changes within the cavity. -
Page 5: Creating The Cavity
If the fire is being located in such a way that the bottom of the cavity is any more than 100mm up off the ground no hearth is required. Escea recommend that if a heater is being mounted more than 100mm up a blank wall and no hearth is being used, then a four sided fascia is used (available from your Escea dealer). -
Page 6: 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 7: Power Supply
Power Supply: The electrical cord (either of the fire, or an extension cord) should pass through the ‘Outer Skin Kit’ as shown, through the supplied ‘Cord Strain Relief Bush’. 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 8 NZ ONLY 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.
