9. Fascia, Log and Glass care
If the re is operated with nger (and other) marks present on the fascia panels there is a risk of them be-
ing burnt into the fascia paintwork as the re gets hot from normal running. The fascia panels should be
kept as clean as possible and all cleaning should be carried out when the re is o and cold.
NEVER, EVER RUB THE FASCIA.
The outside of the fascias must only be cleaned with a damp cloth. The high temperature silver powder
coating that is used on Escea fascia parts contains certain amounts of aluminium that when rubbed too
hard will oxidise leaving a big black smudge that cannot be removed.
The glass can be cleaned, inside and out, using most domestic glass cleaners providing that all residue is
removed with a CLEAN and DRY cloth. Stubborn marks can be cleaned using a ceramic cook top cleaner.
Cleaning maintenance will need to be carried out whenever soot builds up on the logs and/or inside
of the glass. If soot build up becomes excessive or regular, then it is recommended that you contact an
authorised Gas Fitter to service your re.
