Check Operation; Set Aeration (If Necessary) - Valor LX2 Series Installation & Owner's Manual

Check Operation

Turn the fi replace fl ame up and down using the
remote control to confi rm that the full range of inputs
is achieved—see the remote control operation
instructions on pages 9–15.

Set Aeration (if necessary)

Light the fi re and allow the unit to warm up for 10–15
minutes to evaluate the fl ame picture. The burner is
equipped with an adjustable shutter to control primary
aeration. The shutter is factory-set to an aeration gap
which will give optimum performance for the vast
majority of installations.
Depending of fuel bed used, altitude and other
considerations, the fl ame picture may be improved by
adjusting the aeration. The need for adjustment should
be determined only by operating the appliance with the
fuel bed, liners and window installed and evaluating the
fl ame picture after a 15-minute warm-up.
Increasing aeration will cause the fl ames to appear
more transparent and blue showing more ceramic
eff ects glow.
Decreasing aeration will cause the fl ames to appear
more yellow or orange showing less ceramic eff ects glow.
Too little aeration may result in black carbon
forming and dropping into the fi rebox.
INSTALLATION
To access the air shutter, remove the barrier screen
and the base plate. The air shutter lever is located in
front of the fi rebox behind the appliance front panel.
Adjust the shutter by using a screwdriver as a lever to
slide the shutter left or right.
