Casting Tolerances
Due to the nature of cast iron, dimensional consistency
may vary from one unit to the next and some variation
in surface fi nish and fl atness is to be expected. We
have done our best to control and make allowance for
this; however some variation is inevitable.

ARCH FRONT INSTALLATION WITH 530 (539AFB, 539AFP, 549AFB, 549AFP, 550CAP)
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 fi replaces provided space and local codes
permit.
Hearth Requirements
All installations will require a hearth or fl oor, fl ush 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.
A non-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 fl ooring
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 fi nishes at the
listed clearances may, over time, discolor, warp, or
show cracks. Care should be taken when choosing
materials—consult your fi replace dealer.
