Valor (Miles Industries Ltd.) - H4 Series

Designed as a four-sided version of the Horizon fireplace, the H4 Series eliminates the need for a traditional hearth in your living space. Elevated to your preferred height the H4 nestles comfortably in your choice of surrounding wall surfaces.

Approximately 29,000 sf of the GEOWEB material was placed and anchored on slopes varying between 50 and 75 feet in length. Presto’s engineering team collaborated with MDSHA’s consultant Schnabel Engineering Consultants, on a design solution specific to this site. The solution for this site included the GEOWEB GW30V (mid-size cell), 4 inch depth material with 3 foot ATRA® anchors on three foot centers. A double-sided erosion control blanket was included as a surface treatment to provide erosion protection during the germination period. Representatives from Presto’s distributor ACF Environmental were on site for three days assisting the contractor with installation.
