CLEANING YOUR FIRE
To maintain the high performance and quality finish of your Valor Fires fire, please
follow these guidelines:
Before attempting to clean the fire, please remember to turn off the fire and wait for
the appliance to cool completely. The fire will retain heat for some time before
cleaning can begin.
Metal parts.
Clean the metal parts with a slightly damp cloth and then dry.
Do not use abrasive cleaners as these will scratch the fire surface.
MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance.
In order to achieve and maintain high levels of personal safety and performance
efficiency, it is essential that the opening at the back of the fire and the flue are kept
clear of any form of obstruction. It is possible that deposits of mortar or soot could fall
and accumulate causing the flue to be blocked or restricted and so preventing proper
clearance of dangerous exhaust fumes.
In the United Kingdom it is the law that a landlord must have any gas appliance, flue
and pipework which is situated in a tenant’s premises checked for safety at least
every twelve months by a competent person (In the UK a GAS SAFE REGISTER
engineer, outside of the UK a CORGI or GAS SAFE REGISTER engineer). We
recommend that all gas appliances and their flues, wherever situated, are checked
annually.
