LUBRICATING INNER PIPE COMPONENTS
The inner flue pipe joints are sealed with an “O” ring seal.
To help ensure a good seal and to ease assembly, a small tub of silicone grease is provided with the Direct Flue
Kit (ESDFK) and the In-Wall Transition Kit (ESKIT03). Use this silicone grease to lubricate the “O” ring on the inner
pipes prior to assembly.
This appliance is NOT suitable for inbuilt installations.
This appliance MUST NOT be installed where curtains or other combustible materials could come into contact with
it. In some cases curtains may need restraining.
Heat emanating from the front
of this appliance may over time
affect the appearance of some
materials used for flooring such
as carpet, vinyl, cork or timber.
This effect may be amplified if
the air in the room contains
cooking vapours or cigarette
smoke. To avoid this possibility,
it is recommended that a mat be
placed in front of the appliance,
extending at least 750mm in
front of it.
The flue terminal MUST BE positioned away from flammable materials.
In areas subject to heavy snowfall, keep snow clear of flue terminal at all times.
• DO NOT flue into natural
draught flues or fireplaces.
• DO NOT flue into other
rooms, roof spaces or into

an unusually dusty area.
For other important information regarding the location of the heater refer to the instructions
supplied with the appliance.
Use ONLY the supplied silicone based “O” ring seal lubricant.
DO NOT use petroleum based lubricants such as petroleum jelly. Petroleum jelly or similar
petroleum based lubricants will cause deterioration of the “O” ring seals.
