Glen Dimplex Escea
Escea’s EF5000 is an outdoor gas fire with a sleek design. External areas will be transformed with these wide-aspect, open-fronted fires, providing warmth and sophistication outdoors. Created from high-grade stainless steel to ensure that it will maintain its immaculate appearance for a long time, the EF5000 consists of carefully conceived fuel dynamics that provide natural-looking flames and effective outdoor heating.
It doesn’t matter what your outside area looks like, the EF5000 can easily be fitted into any timber-framed external wall or masonry cavity, with a ready-to-build kit-set wall unit available to make installation effortless. A specially made weather shield slides over the fuel bed to protect gas burners from the elements when not in use. Rounding out the eye-pleasing features is the choice of elegant fuel-effect options. Choose either black or white coals, each accompanied by a decorative front panel filled with polished black or white stones, according to the colour of the coals. escea.com, glendimplex.com.au

The burners are now a principal design tool; part of the overall outdoor environment. XL stainless-steel burners are available in three different sizes – the XL900, XL700 and XL500.
