This manual contains very important information about the safe installation and operation of the fireplace. Read and
understand all instructions carefully before installing and operating the fireplace. Failure to follow these instructions
may result in possible fire hazard and will void the warranty.
Replacement manuals are available by contacting the Valor Customer Service at 1-800-468-2567, or by visiting
valorfireplaces.com.
WARNING: Extremely Hot!
Heat and flammability
• Some parts of the fireplace are extremely hot, particu-
larly the glass window. Use the barrier screen provid-
ed or a gate to reduce the risk of severe burns.
• The glass windows can exceed 500°F at full capacity.
• Always keep the appliance clear and free from com-
bustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors and liquids.
• Be aware of hot wall surfaces! The wall directly above
the fireplace can get very hot when the fireplace
heats. Although safe, it may reach temperatures in ex-
cess of 200ºF (93°C) depending on choice of optional
accessories. Do not touch!
• Be aware of hot shelf/hearth/floor surfaces! Any
projections directly around the fireplace can get very
hot when the fireplace heats. Although safe, they may
reach temperatures in excess of 200ºF (93°C) depend-
ing on their elevation. Be careful of touching these! Do
not put objects on the hearth or shelf. Temperature
of projection surfaces will be reduced when barrier
screen is installed.
• Some materials or items, although safe, may discolor,
shrink, warp, crack, peel, and so on because of the
heat produced by the fireplace. Avoid placing candles,
paintings, photos and other combustible objects
sensitive to heat or furniture within 36 inches (0.9m)
around the fireplace.
• Solid wood flooring in front of the fireplace (if allowed)
may shrink during the heating season due to heat.
• Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be
located out of traffic areas and away from furniture
and draperies.
• Clothing or other flammable material should not be
placed on or near the appliance.
Barrier Screen and Safety
• A barrier designed to reduce the risk of burns from
the hot viewing glass is provided with this appliance
and must be installed for the protection of children
and other at-risk individuals.
• Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards
of high surface temperature and should stay away to
avoid burns or clothing ignition.
• Young children should be carefully supervised when
they are in the same room as the appliance. Toddlers,
young children, and others may be susceptible to
accidental contact burns. A physical barrier is recom-
mended if there are at-risk individuals in the house. To
restrict access to a fireplace or stove, install an adjust-
able safety gate to keep toddlers, young children, and
other at-risk individuals out of the room and away
from hot surfaces.
• Any safety screen, guard, or barrier removed for ser-
vicing an appliance, must be replaced prior to operat-
ing the appliance.

Preparation
Existing Fireplace Preparation
A few points must be considered before inserting
the 739 into an existing fireplace cavity. Generally, no
modifications are allowed to the existing fireplace that
will compromise the integrity of the existing fireplace.
Components that are bolted or screwed on such as
dampers or baffles may be removed to accommodate
the installation of the 739 engine.
Cutting away any sheet metal parts of the existing
fireplace to accommodate the installation of the 739
is prohibited.
Check with local authorities if in doubt.
Clean Fireplace and Chimney
Have the chimney swept and the fireplace cavity
including ash dumps and clean-outs cleaned before
installing the 739 heater and vent liners. Any creosote
or soot residue remaining in the fireplace cavity
chimney or clean-out may cause odors or stains once
the 739 insert is installed. Consult with chimney sweep
for information on how best to clean.
Existing Dampers
Factory-built, zero-clearance fireplaces will require
the damper to be removed in order to install the vent
liners. These dampers are usually bolted into place.
Dampers in masonry fireplaces must be fixed open and
may remain in place.
Ash Retaining Curbs
Some fireplaces (particularly factory-built) have a
raised curb at the front edge to retain ashes. Check the
dimensions carefully to ensure the 739 engine will fit
behind any raised curb (some curbs may be removed
separately from the refractory base).
Gas Line Routing
Plan the routing of the gas line before proceeding.
Utilize the existing hole for the gas line of the factory-
built fireplace.
If the fireplace has no access hole, carefully drill an
access hole of 1.5 inch (38 mm) or less through the
lower sides or bottom of the firebox. The access hole
must be plugged with non-combustible insulation after
the gas supply line has been installed.
See Dimensions section for detailed location of gas inlet.
Also, take into consideration whether or not a fan or
shut-offvalve will interfere when planning routing of
the gas line.
Existing Glass Doors and Wire Screens
Existing glass doors must be permanently removed
prior to installing the 739 insert.
Combustible Mantels
Combustible mantel clearances must conform to those
required for the original solid-fuel fireplace into which
the 739 is being installed.
Attach Warning Conversion Plate to Existing
Fireplace
(Label supplied loose with 739 heater)
Attach the “This fireplace has been converted...” label to
the existing fireplace using screws or other mechanical
means and store any removed parts in back of the
existing fireplace for future use.

Window and Fan
Installation
Remove Window
The window is held in place by four spring-loaded bolts,
two at the top and two at the bottom.
1. To remove the window, turn each bolt a quarter
turn to disengage the bolt pin.
2. Gently pull the bottom of the window outward and
unhook it from the firebox’s top.
3. Set the window aside in a safe place to avoid dam-
age.
Install Fan (if used)
If the 755CFK—Circulating Fan Kit (blower) is to be
installed, we suggest that you do it now.
The fan cavity is accessible from the back of the firebox
to facilitate its installation. If the fan is retrofitted after
the installation of the appliance, the burner module
will need to be removed. Therefore, we recommend
that, where possible, the fan be installed before the
appliance is fitted into the cavity.
Refer to instructions provided with the 755CFK to
install the fan.

Venting System and Appliance
Installation
Connect Venting
IMPORTANT: This appliance’s venting system is room sealed and there-
fore, does not require room air to be used in the combustion process.
1. Rough-in two 3” diameter vent liners into the existing chimney
system from the roof. Be careful not to tear or damage the liners in
the process. It may be easier to install both liners at the same time
rather than one at a time. Leave plenty of liners at the bottom to
facilitate the connection of the liners to the vent slider. It is best to
leave the top termination until later.
Designate and mark the top and bottom of one liner as “EX-
HAUST” to avoid confusion later.
2. Release the two screws retaining the vent slider to the front of the
firebox. Remove the slider from the firebox by sliding it towards the
back of the firebox.
3. Fit the two liners ensuring that the exhaust liner is connected to
the identified “EXHAUST” vent collar. Secure liners to collars with
hose clamps (included) and 2 tapping screws per liner.
4. Slide the firebox onto the vent slider in the cavity taking care not to
damage the liners. Make sure that the rear edge of the slider is
hooked over the cleat on the firebox. Secure the vent slider to the
front of the firebox with two screws removed earlier.
5. From the roof, pull the liners and fit the flashing.
6. Fit the terminal cap ensuring that the exhaust liner is connected to
the exhaust vent collar. Secure with screws.
7. Seal the terminal and flashing from water penetration as required.

Gas Supply
Installation
Connect Gas Supply
The gas supply inlet connection is a 3/8” NPT female
connector and is located on the left hand side of the
control valve.
Use only new black iron or steel pipes, CSST, or copper
tubing if acceptable—check local codes. Note that
in USA, copper tubing must be internally tinned for
protection against sulfur compounds.
The burner module and gas train on this appliance
may be removed as a unit for servicing. The flex pipe
supplied with the unit provides a union for removal of
the module.
Unions in gas lines should be of ground joint type.
The gas supply line must be sized and installed to
provide a supply of gas sufficient to meet the maximum
demand of the appliance without undue loss of
pressure.
Sealant used must be resistant to the action of all gas
constituents including LP gas. Sealant should be applied
lightly to male threads to ensure excess sealant does
not enter gas lines.
Pressure test the supply line for leaks.
The appliance and its individual shut-offvalve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during
any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply
piping system by closing its equipment shut-offvalve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
Failure to either disconnect or isolate the appliance
during pressure testing may result in regulator or valve
damages and void the warranty. Consult your dealer in
case of damages.
Pressure Test Points
The minimum supply pressure is given in the section
“Specifications” on page 6 of this manual.
All piping and connections must be tested for leaks
after installation or servicing. All leaks must be
corrected immediately.
When testing for leaks:
• Make sure that the appliance is turned off.
• Open the manual shut-offvalve.
• Test for leaks by applying a liquid detergent or soap
solution to all joints. Bubbles forming indicate a
gas leak.
The pressure test tapping locations are shown in the
figure below. An internal regulator within the valve
controls the burner manifold pressure.
The correct pressure range is shown in the table in
section “Specifications” on page 6 . The pressure
check should be made with the burner alight and at its
highest setting. See “Appendix A - Lighting Instructions
Plate” on page 36 for full lighting details.

Installation Liner Panels
Install Liners
The following guidelines apply for all liners (with the
exception of the 739RGL Reflective Glass Liners—see
the installation manual supplied with that liner kit for
details).
1. Inside the firebox, on the top of each side, release
the screw of the side brick anchors (one per side)
just enough to allow them to rotate.
2. Remove the fuel bed support (2 screws).
3. Remove the burner cover (2 screws).
4. Rotate the anchor up and out of the way and slide
the left hand side panel against the firebox side. The
panel should be parallel to the edge of the burner
plate. Slide the panel forward. Rotate the anchor
back down to hold the panel.
5. Place the rear panel against the back of the firebox
resting it on the ledge at bottom. Two tabs are hold-
ing it. Slide it behind the left side panel to hold it.
6. Rotate the anchor up and out of the way and slide
the right hand side panel against the firebox side.
The panel should be parallel to the edge of the
burner plate. Rotate the anchor back down to hold
the panel.
7. Tighten the side brick anchors on each side of the
firebox.
8. Reinstall the burner cover being careful not to
scratch the brick while inserting it into the firebox.
Secure it (2 screws).

9. Reinstall the fuel bed support without tightening the
screws yet; slide it as far back as possible and then,
tighten the two screws.
Generally, the fuel bed support, as installed above,
will generate the best flame for any of the log sets.
However, its position can be adjusted in certain
circumstances.
Moving the log support forward will allow more
impingement/glow/flame height; moving the log
support backward will do the opposite.
