1.0 Product Description:
The escea EF5000 flame effect gas fire is designed for outdoor use only. This appliance re-
quires no flue and must be permanently installed into a cavity. It may be installed into a tim-
ber cavity.
The fire is controlled by the user from a switch that is situated on the lower right hand side of
the stainless steel fascia.
The Data Label, containing all technical information such as manufacture date, serial num-
ber, gas type, jet size, etc, can be found in the lower right hand side of the fire, below the
firebox, to access this, the fascia must be removed.

2.0 Power Supply:
This appliance requires 3 ‘D’ sized cell batteries for operation, which are located in a battery
pack inside the control tray behind the fascia, at the base of the fire. Alternatively, you can
use the External Power Supply, described in section 2.2 of this manual.
2.1 Replacing Batteries:
To replace the batteries, Remove the fascia to gain access to the battery pack pictured
above. To remove the cap of the battery pack turn it anti-clockwise until it stops, then pull.
The batteries inside should slide out. Ensure you replace the batteries in the correct way,
dimple facing out.
Once the new batteries have been placed inside, replace the cap and turn it clockwise until it
stops, to seal it.
2.2 Alternate Power Source: (Optional)
If you wish to connect your outdoor fire to mains electricity instead of using 3x D sized bat-
teries, you may do so using the Alternative Power Source Connection Terminal, located on
the control tray above the battery pack, as shown above.
You will need to purchase a transformer capable of 5v DC output, with a minimum of 1.3
Amp capacity. For details on suitable transformers and correct cable routing to protect
against damage, contact Urban Fires.
Connect the transformer to the fire by putting the Positive wire into the Red terminal of the
control tray, then connect the Negative wire to the Black terminal.
THIS MUST ONLY BE DONE BY AN AUTHOURIZED ELECTRICIAN

3.0 Creating the Cavity:
The dimensioned drawing below shows the size of opening that must be created to install
the unit.
3.1 Cavity Dimensions:
3.2 Where possible, it is recommended that the cavity is made slightly larger than the above di-
mensions to give the installer the maximum amount of space to work in.
3.3 Clearances to Combustibles:
3.4 User Protection
This is an open flame type appliance and the user must be protected from inadvertently
backing or walking into the fire as detailed in BS 5871-3:2005 clause 11.2.
A suitable’ tactile separator’ must be installed. This could be in the form of either a hearth in
accordance with clause 11.3.2 of BS 5871-3:2005 or a fender, kerb, horizontal bar, or other
barrier, being fixed not less than 50mm above floor/ground level and not more than 1000mm
above floor/ground level, and positioned at least 300mm in front of and 150mm beyond the
edge of any naked flame or incandescent part of the fire-bed.

4.0 Wall cladding around fire:
4.1 The temperature of the wall directly above the heater does get hot and hence may discolour
paint finishes.
4.2 Some dark coloured exhaust stains may also become visible directly above the fire due to
exhaust. In most cases this can be cleaned off with water and a brush.
5.0 Minimum install height:
The fire has ventilation gaps behind the fascia at the top and bottom. These must not be
blocked, so ensure there is a gap of at least 30mm between the bottom of the fascia and
anything below.
6.0 Types of Installation:
This appliance shall only be used in an above ground open-air situation with natural ventila-
tion, without stagnant areas, where gas leakage and products of combustion are rapidly dis-
persed by wind and natural convection.
Certain materials or items, when placed under or near the appliance, will be subjected to ra-
diant heat and could become damaged.
The following installation diagrams are escea recommendations only and may or may not
comply with your local council standards. Please check with your local council for actual
building standards.
Typically an outdoor space is not enclosed but, any enclosure in which the appliance is used
should comply with one of the following:
- An enclosure with walls on all sides, but at least one permanent opening at
ground level and no overhead cover.
630177_4 EF5000 Installation Guide - GB
- Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead cover and no more than two
walls.
- Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead cover and more than two
walls, the following should apply:
At least 25% of the total wall area is completely open, and
At least 30% of the remaining wall area is open and unrestricted
Rectangular areas have been used in the above diagrams; the same principles apply to any
other shaped area.
In the case of balconies, at least 20% of the total wall area should be and remain open and
unrestricted.

7.0 Corner Installations:
If a cavity is to be created in a corner, the following drawings give the minimum sized interi-
or wall dimensions possible.
Note:
Allowances need to be made for cladding the internal of the cavity.
Dimensions of the cavity in this diagram represent the internal size only.

8.0 Laying Gas Pipe:
Gas pipe should be sized as per the requirements of BS 6896. The pipe sizing must be suf-
ficient to deliver the following volume of gas to the heater with all other gas appliances in the
home running at the same time;
EF5000 G20 Natural Gas = 17.0 kW Gross
EF5000 G31 Propane = 17.0 kW Gross
It is highly recommended to install an easily accessible isolating shut off valve (ball valve)
along the gas line to the EF5000 unit which should be easily accessible to the user.
9.0 Connecting the Gas Pipe to the Fireplace:
9.1 Soft copper should be run directly to the lower left hand side of the fire and connected onto
the regulator by means of a ½” . Insert the supplied rubber plug and cut it as shown below to
allow the gas pipe and the optional electrical cable to pass through, keeping the plug as
air-tight as possible.
9.2 An accessible inline isolation or service valve should also be fitted. 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 and
could result in an unsafe installation.
.
9.3 The gas hose should be properly located away from pathways or areas where the hose may
be subject to accidental damage.
9.4 The EF5000 must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure
testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
