New AF700 gas fireplace from Escea

With Escea’s new AF700 gas fireplace, it is easier than ever to replace your old open fronted wood fireplace or radiant space heater

Have you got an open fronted fireplace that you want to replace? An old brick chimney that needs upgrading? Or do you just want to jazz up your living space with a fireplace to create atmosphere and ambience? Then the AF700 fireplace is for you.

The day has come where those beautifully grand brick chimney fireplaces are steadily becoming redundant, and are now even recognised as harmful to our health. However, it’s hard to let go of the charming glow and comfort a fireplace has to offer – although, not so much the dirt, dust and mess.

With Escea’s new AF700 gas fireplace, it is easier than ever to replace your old open fronted wood fireplace or radiant space heater. The AF700 is the perfect replacement fireplace as its dimensions are more suited to typically tight-spaced masonry and brick cavities.

For this installation, Escea uses a simple flue solution which runs down the brick or masonry chimney. The Direct Vent flue, in combination with the glass front, offers a completely sealed system bringing fresh outside air inside the firebox for combustion and carries exhaust air away. This makes the AF700 a more efficient, healthier and ultimately warmer heating solution.

The Escea designers have kept in mind that these chimney cavities will most likely be surrounded by a mantel, tiles or have a hearth in front. This ignited the idea that homeowners mainly want flame, so the AF700 was created with the largest viewable glass area and a minimal fascia. This fireplace will adapt to its surroundings with ease.

Finally, it’s replacing an old soot-filled wood fireplace with a fireplace that you can control with a smartphone app – where can I get one?

Transform your old fireplace into a fuss-free, mess-free design feature or add ambiance and atmosphere to your living space. The AF700 is the retrofit fireplace that redefines its category.
