Convection Box Installation; Method 1 - Front Fixing To Fireplace Surround - Valor Homeflame Dream Installation And Owner's Manual

9. There is a length of self adhesive foam seal supplied with the fire. This will need to
be fitted to the outer rear edges of the side and
top flanges of the convector box. Cut a 485mm
length of foam seal. Be careful not to stretch the
seal when measuring. Remove the protective
backing from the foam seal and fit this to the rear
of the top flange (See figure 17). Cut two 580mm
lengths. Fit these to the rear outer edges of the
side flanges. Ensure that there is no gap
between the foam seals where they meet at the
top flange (See figure 17).

9. CONVECTION BOX INSTALLATION

9.1 Method 1 - Front fixing to fireplace surround.

1. Make sure that the fireplace front surround area is
sound enough to take the fibre / wooden plugs and
woodscrews. If necessary, make sound with suitable
cement.
2. Place the convection box centrally in the fireplace
in the position in which it is to be permanently
installed. If a concealed connection is being used,
insert the convection box into the fireplace feeding
the supply pipe through the pierced hole in the rear
grommet.
3. Mark the fireplace front surround through the four
fixing holes in the side flanges of the convection box
(See figure 18).
