HOT GLASS WILL

CAUSE BURNS.

DO NOT TOUCH GLASS

UNTIL COOLED.

NEVER ALLOW CHILDREN

TO TOUCH GLASS.

WARNING

A barrier designed to reduce the risk of burns from the hot viewing

glass is provided with this appliance and shall be installed

for the protection of children and other at-risk individuals.

Casting Tolerances

Due to the nature of cast iron, dimensional consistency

may vary from one unit to the next and some variation

in surface ﬁnish and ﬂatness is to be expected. We

have done our best to control and make allowance for

this; however some variation is inevitable.

items and is intended for

insert applications only).

Applications

The Valor model 530 heater with the 539 or 550 Cast

Arch Fronts comes ready for installation as a zero

clearance unit into combustible type framing, without

need for a separate zero clearance kit. The 530

installed without the standard zero clearance stand-off

spacers may also be installed into existing solid-fuel

burning ﬁreplaces provided space and local codes

permit.

Hearth Requirements

All installations will require a hearth or ﬂoor, ﬂush with

the bottom of the heater, to support the weight of the

cast iron plate and to ensure the removable hearth

fender rests at the proper height.

Anon-combustible hearth is not required in front of this

appliance.

Dimensions & Clearances—539 and 550 Arch

fronts (539 Windsor Arch shown here)

Floor Requirements

The 530 heater is approved for installation directly

on any combustible material other than soft ﬂooring

material such as carpet or vinyl.

Mantel Requirements

The Arch Fronts series is designed to install with

combustible mantels provided clearances are

maintained as indicated in the Dimensions and

Clearances, and Framing diagrams below and on

the following page. The 539 and the 550 back plate

may also be installed without a mantel provided listed

clearances are maintained. Be aware that although

safe, some combustible materials and ﬁnishes at the

listed clearances may, over time, discolor, warp, or

show cracks. Care should be taken when choosing

materials—consult your ﬁreplace dealer.

Framing

• The framing dimensions for installation

of the 530 heater with the models 539

or 550 Arch Fronts are shown in the

Framing Diagram.

• A non-combustible hearth is not

necessary in front of the 530 heater.

• The 530 is approved for installation

directly on any combustible material

other than soft ﬂooring material such

as carpet or vinyl.

• Any framing construction must be clear

of the standoffs—see Dimensions &

Clearances and Framing Diagram.

• A hearth, ﬂush with the bottom of the

heater, will be required to support the

removable hearth fender.

Installation

1. Fit Top Bafﬂe under the top panel of the appliance

case. Secure with 2 thread forming screws. Fit the

top air deﬂector to the top bafﬂe as shown using the

2 screws provided.

2. Mount Stand-off Spacers. The stand-off spacers

are supplied ﬂat and are left and right handed.

a) Remove the 2 screws near each of the rear top

corners of the appliance and the 2 screws near

the rear top of each side.

b) Bend the spacers as shown.

c) Screw the spacers to the rear of the appliance

using the screws just removed.

d) Bend the side wings of the spacers to align the 2

holes in each spacer with those in the appliance

sides.

e) Secure the spacers using the screws just

removed.

! Warning: Failure to install the stand-off spacers

may result in a ﬁre hazard.

3. Locate Side Mounting Brackets as shown and line

up the mounting holes in the side of the heater body.

Secure the side brackets to the heater using the

screws provided—2 per side.

(Note that the spacer brackets are to remain on

for ZC application of 26”. For insert application,

spacers can be removed for 24” openings.)

4. Locate Top Insulation Pad. For top vent outlet

appliances, cut out a circle at the center of the

insulation layers for the vent collar. Place both

the insulation layers on top of the appliance case

inboard of the stand-off spacers.

! Warning: Failure to install both the insulation

layers may cause a ﬁre hazard.

5. Secure the Outer Cast Plate to the appliance with

self-tapping screws provided as shown. Tighten the

screws enough to ensure a tight ﬁt between casting

and sheet metal parts.

(It may be necessary to re-drill 1/8” pilot holes for

the self-tapping screws due to misalignment caused

by shifting tolerances with the cast iron arch.)

Note: The weight of the cast plate must not be

carried by the connection to the heater. It must sit

on a hearth or be securely screwed to the wall.

6. Hang the Inner Cast Arch. Insert the mounting

hooks into the notches in the outer cast plate

as shown. The ﬁt or gap between the inner cast

arch and the outer cast plate may be tightened by

bending the mounting hooks slightly inwards.

Do not bend the hooks too far or the inner arch

will be difﬁcult to remove!

If this happens, a screwdriver inserted through the

gap between the back of the inner arch and the

heater should be able to pry the hook away from

the backing plate. Do not hit the hooks with a

hammer as this may break the welds holding

them.

Slide the hearth fender up to the front of the casting.

Note: It is important that the hearth in front of

heater be ﬂush with the bottom of the heater;

otherwise the hearth fender will not rest at the

proper height.

7. With the 550 Arch front, the hearth fender hooks

into place on the inner cast arch.

8. Install the barrier screen by snapping the barrier

screen’s top part to the inner arch. Then slide the

screen up slightly under the hood, snap the bottom of

the barrier to the inner arch and slide the screen back

down so it rests on the cast fender’s upper edge.

Cleaning

To clean the barrier screen and the matte black cast

iron surfaces use a soft brush. To clean the polished

cast iron surfaces use mild soap and water.

If the barrier becomes damaged, the barrier shall

be replaced with the manufacturer’s barrier for this

appliance.

To clean the ﬁreplace glass window, refer to the

owner’s manual supplied with the appliance.

DO NOT clean the glass with ammonia.

Removing the front unit

1. Remove the barrier screen by pushing it up and

pulling out the bottom then the top.

2. Pull away the hearth fender at the bottom.

3. Unhook the inner cast arch as shown.

Always securely replace the window, the front

and the barrier screen before lighting.

WARNING

FOR YOUR SAFETY, ensure the barrier

screen is reinstalled on the fireplace

after maintenance.

WARNING

DO NOT TOUCH THE BARRIER SCREEN,

THE CAST FRONT OR THE GLASS WHILE

THEY ARE HOT!

Let the fireplace cool first

before cleaning it.

ARCH FRONT INSTALLATION WITH 922 (539AFB, 539AFP, 549AFB, 549AFP)

All Arch fronts mounted to 922 ﬁreboxes require a 540

WDK wire guard and mounting hardware.

Note: The bottom of the ﬁrebox must be installed ﬂush

with the ﬁnished hearth height or the cast front will not

install properly. The cast front must rest on the hearth

or ﬂoor as the ﬁrebox and brackets will not support it on

their own.

ZC applications. For ZC applications, the 922

requires a 975ZCK—Zero Clearance Kit. Refer to the

instructions booklet supplied with the 975ZCK.

2. Install the black canopy shield to cover the

openings in the cast iron canopy.

a) Lay inner arch face down on the ﬂoor. Insert one

corner of the shield into the corner behind the

arch’s cast frame as shown.

b) Bend the canopy shield to a slight radius while

inserting the other corner behind the arch’s cast

frame as shown (it may be necessary to loosen

or remove one or two of the canopy bolts).

c) With both corners behind the arch’s cast frame,

snap the shield forward to follow the curve of the

cast iron canopy. The top of the shield should

ﬁt under the projecting ledge in the frame as

shown.

3. Fasten the top ﬁller piece to the back of the outer

cast arch.

4. Mount outer cast arch to brackets on ﬁrebox as

shown below.

5. Hang the inner arch on the outer arch and install
