It should now be possible to reach up from inside of the heater and connect the flue to the heater’s flue spigot as per sections 18.1 and 18.2. This junction should be made fast with both sealant and a fixing screw.
18.1
18.2Note: If installing a flue system into a framed timber wall the outer liner should not come down any further than onto the stand offs on the top of the heater to allow unimpeded flow of air between flue and liner. Please ensure the weight of the liner is supported and not all bearing down on the fire.
Flue liner should seat onto the stand off brackets as shown.
5)Replace the parts and panels that have been removed. The fire box must be completely centralised before pushing it back into place otherwise the heat exchanger will not engage with the draft diverter at the back of the appliance.
19.0Connecting the Gas Pipe:
When the heater has been pushed back into position the 300mm flexible braided stainless steel gas pipe (supplied) can be connected to the inlet side of the appliance regulator at the front RH corner of the heater. The hose and pipe assembly should have already been tested as per section 12.2.
19.1If the installer chooses not to use the supplied flexible inlet pipe then 12mm copper can be run directly to heater and connected onto the regulator with flare nut (BSP thread). 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.
