Sealing Floor Front - All Installations - Valor Homeflame Dream Installation And Owner's Manual

INSTALLER GUIDE
11. Pull each cable taut. Push the cable retainers
hard up against the back panel. The end of the
cable adjuster will pass into the hole. Tighten the
screws in the retainers so that they clamp the
cables in position. Apply tension to the cables by
turning the hexagonal adjusters by hand (See figure
23).
12. Inspect the installation of the convection box
against the fireplace surround. If the convection box
is aligned squarely and the sealing is satisfactory,
fully tighten the cable retainers.
13. If the convection box is not correctly aligned,
release the tension on the cables by slackening the
screws and turning the hexagonal adjusters fully
anticlockwise. The convection box should then
automatically realign itself. Pull each cable taut
again and push the cable retainers back against the
back panel. Again, tighten the screws in the
retainers and apply tension to the cables by turning
the hexagonal adjusters clockwise as far as
possible.
14. Feed the free length of the cables into the gap
between the inner and outer back panels so that
they are available to allow easy removal and
refitting of the appliance during subsequent service

calls. Do not cut off the free lengths of cable
(See figure 23).

9.3 Sealing floor front - All installations.

Using the floor sealing tape supplied, seal the bottom of the convection box to the
fireplace and hearth floor (See figure 24).
Make sure that the whole length of the front edge of
the convection box is fully sealed.
9.4 Sealing convection box holes.
The rear and inner sides of the convection box have
small holes and openings that will allow room air to
pass into the fireplace opening / flue box opening.
Although these holes are no cause for concern it is
important to seal them to optimise the performance of
the fire. An additional length of tape is supplied with the
fire, use this to seal any holes in the rear and inner
sides of the convection box. DO NOT tape over the
