Clearances
CONVERTING AN EXISTING FIREPLACE:
In order to keep the heat from escaping through the flue, place a panel of non-combustible heat reflective
material such as stainless steel across your flue opening or utilise the damper within the existing fireplace
setting to conserve heat.
All settings must incorporate a “Twin Skin”. If using the Top Tray that has been supplied with this model, the
cut out dimensions are:-
H 123mm [4.8] x W 680mm [26.7] x D 173mm [6.8].
Multiple burners may be installed into a fireplace setting however the ventilation requirements must be
adhered to at all times. It is imperative that when installing multiple burners you consider strongly the impact
of any accident and minimise it wherever possible.
A fire extinguisher (AB:E type dry chemical extinguisher) is a compulsory accessory.
Installation Requirements
There are many different variations available for installing
the EcoSmart™ XL700 Burner. In all cases, the EcoSmart™
XL700 Burner must:
- Be installed into non-combustible material ONLY
– for example stainless steel, concrete, brick, stone
- Be fitted within a “Twin Skin”, such as the Top Tray included
with this model from The Fire Company Pty Ltd so that there
is a second barrier to capture any accidental spillage. If
the Twin Skin is not supplied by The Fire Company Pty Ltd
then it must undergo a “water tight” test prior to inserting the
EcoSmart™ Burner into place
- All gas connections or pipelines near your EcoSmart™
installation must be disconnected and made safe by an
appropriately qualified professional prior to installation
- Be installed into a fixed and secure position before filling,
lighting and operating
- Be installed in a position that limits relocation requirements to
eliminate the risk of accidents caused by fuel spillage – they
are not designed to be relocated frequently
- Be installed into a level platform
- DO NOT INSTALL DIRECTLY BESIDE OR NEAR
WALLPAPER, LAMINATE, VENEER OR ANY SURFACE
THAT HAS NOT BEEN FIRE RATED (the heat will impact
the material, and in some circumstances the glue used for its
application). THIS INCLUDES THE DETAILING/FINISHING
MATERIALS USED ON THE DECORATIVE SURFACES
AROUND THE INSTALLED FIREBOX.
- Be installed into a setting that has a square back – the incorporation of angled backs alters the
aerodynamics of the flame environment and could lead to an unstable flame behaviour
As a general guide we recommend that:
- Any furniture items or fittings directly above or beside the EcoSmart™ Fire installation be deemed
suitable for heat tolerances by their manufacturer e.g Plasma Television Screens
- A heat reflective panel made of non combustible material (ideally stainless steel) be installed as the
surround and top of the fireplace setting to assist in heat distribution
- Any reconstituted materials you wish to use be checked in terms of strength and suitability around such
high temperature variations as some materials will crack – call The Fire Company Pty Ltd for more
information about specific surfaces - Glass or mirrored surfaces near the EcoSmart™ Fire installation
must be toughened
SPACERS: When the XL700 Burner is in position, there is usually an air gap around it.
Do not pack with insulation or other materials, as the air spacers are required for ventilation.
