FAQs
What types of fireplaces does Escea have?
In Europe, Escea's electric fireplace range is available – a collection of inbuilt and freestanding models, built around Escea's holographic flame technology.
How early should a fireplace be considered in the design process?
Ideally, at concept stage. Early coordination allows fluing, clearances, and integration with structure and services to be resolved upfront, avoiding constraints later.
Escea's Architectural Advisory team can assist from early design through to installation.
Where are Escea fireplaces made?
Every Escea fireplace is designed and manufactured at our headquarters in Dunedin, New Zealand. Founded in 2002, Escea is proudly locally owned and operated.
