Installation Manual

WiFi Upgrade

For Valor heaters using the GV60 Valve

September 2019

4007703

Introduction

Any Valor fireplace using a GV60 Valve may 

be upgraded to allow the installation of the 

GV60WIFI module, allowing the homeowner 

to put the fireplace onto the home’s WiFi 

system.
Depending on the existing installation, 

some parts of the fireplace may need to 

be added or upgraded. This document 

outlines the required components and the 

instructions to physically install them.
The WiFi module must be wired into a 

compatible receiver, complete with SI port 

as shown below.

Electrical Requirements

A grounded, single phase, 115VAC power 

supply is required for operation of the WiFi 

system.

If the AC main power is lost, WiFi operation 

will be lost also. Remote operation of the 

fireplace (using the remote handset) can 

still be achieved if battery power is properly 

supplied and available.

WARNING

All electrical installations must 

be performed by a qualified 

electrician and must be 

electrically wired and grounded 

in accordance with local 

codes, or, in the absence of 

local codes, with the National 

Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 

or the Canadian Electrical Code, 

CSA C22.1.
