Frequently Asked Questions

What to do if my Valor fireplace won’t turn on?
 

Answer: Ensure you are operating the remote or wall switch in the proper manner (see attached control instructions). If you continue to experience issues with lighting the pilot and turning on the fireplace, this can often be the result of low batteries not in the remote handset, but the 4x AA batteries, inside of the fireplace receiver box. Beyond battery replacement further troubleshooting will need to be conducted by a qualified service technician.

Why does my Valor fireplace makes a series of beeps when I try to light it?
 

Answer: The series of quick beeps is an indication that the batteries within the unit are critically low. This does not refer to the 9v battery in remote control but rather the 4 AA batteries inside of all of our current fireplaces. Refer to your fireplace manual or the link below regarding replacing batteries.

How do I find the model or serial number of my Valor fireplace?
 

Answer: To determine what model fireplace you own you must find the rating plate. Every fireplace comes with a rating plate that must stay attached to the fireplace. For any of our fireplaces built within the last 10 years the rating plate will be attached to a wire located near the gas valve. Note that this does often require removing the trim (not the glass window) to access. Most trims can simply be removed by lifting it up off of the hooks and pulled out toward you.

I've just started my fireplace or the first time, what is that smell?
 

Answer: When operating your fireplace for the first time, some vapors may be released due to the burning of curing compounds used during manufacturing. They may cause a slight odor and could cause the flames to be the full height of the firebox, or even slightly higher, for the first few hours of operation. This is perfectly normal. See First Time Operation in your fireplace's manual for more information.
Why is there condensation on the inside of the glass window?
 

Answer: This is normal when the fireplace first turns on, and will disappear naturally when the fireplace heats up.
Why is there a white film on the inside of glass window?
 

Answer: This happens due to composition of the gas from your supplier. A byproduct of the combustion process in a gas fi replace is a mineral which can appear as a white film on the ceramic glass window of your appliance. Clean as soon as possible (when the fireplace is cool) so it does not bake onto the glass with time and become permanent.
Where can I purchase parts for my Valor fireplace?
 

Answer: Any of our authorized Valor dealers are able to order replacement parts for your fireplace. Please use our dealer locator to find an authorized Valor dealer nearest you. Note that installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer.

Fireplace Dealer Talking To Customer

ENSURE A TRUE VALOR EXPERIENCE

Should you buy "cash & carry" indirectly over the internet, you cannot be assured of a qualified, safe installation or aftermarket service.

You may be left with hidden costs if the vendor is not able to properly install or service your fireplace. It is strongly recommended that you deal directly with a local, authorized Valor dealer.
