Method 2 - Cable Retention And Floor Fixing - Valor Homeflame Dream Installation And Owner's Manual

4. Remove the convection box. Drill four holes in the fireplace front surround at the
marked positions using a suitably sized masonry drill for the fibre / wooden plugs
supplied.
5. Insert a fibre / wooden plug into each hole.
6. Place the convection box back in position in the fireplace.
7. Fit a woodscrew through each hole in the convection box flanges and tighten to
seal the box to the fireplace surround.

9.2 Method 2 - Cable retention and floor fixing.

1. Make sure that the relevant areas at the fireplace back or floor are sound enough
to take the eyebolts and screws.
If these areas have deteriorated
due to prolonged use they
should be made sound with
suitable cement.
2. Drill four holes in the rear wall
of the fireplace for the eyebolt
plugs. The holes should be
drilled within the range of
positions shown in figure 19
using a suitably sized masonry
drill for the fibre / wooden plugs
supplied. The holes should be
equidistant each side of the
centre line of the fireplace to ensure that the appliance finishes centrally in the
opening when tension is applied to the cables.
3. Insert a fibre / wooden plug into each hole. Use the fibre / wooden plugs supplied
with this appliance - Never use plastic plugs instead of the fibre / wooden plugs
supplied. Screw the eyebolts into the plugs. Make sure that the bolts are secure.
4. Place the convection box unit close to the fireplace but allow sufficient access into
the fireplace opening so that the cables can be threaded through the eyebolts and
returned through the back of the convection box. 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.
5. The convection box has two holes at each side of
the convected air opening. Insert one end of each
cable (one cable each side) from the back through the
lower of the two holes and return the end through the
upper of the holes (See figure 20). Give the cables a
pull so that they grip against the convection box
flanges.
