Introduction
The Valor L1, L1 See Thru, L2, L3, LX1, and LX2
fi
replaces may be upgraded with a WiFi module,
allowing the homeowner to connect the
fi
replace onto
the home's WiFi system and control it using the Valor
10 app on a smart device (
which must be within WiFi
range
).
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
fi
replace (using the
remote handset or wall switch) can still be achieved if
battery power is already supplied and available.
WARNING
All electrical installations must be
performed by a quali
fi
ed 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.
