BLOWER ACCESSORy
Locate blower controls by opening lower
louver panel on fireplace. Blower controls are
located on right side of switch bracket to left
just inside louver panel.
The BK manual blower and BKT thermostati
-
cally-controlled blower have an ON setting
and an OFF setting. The blower will only run
when the switch is in the ON position. In the
OFF position, blower will not operate.
Note for BKT Only: If you are using BKT
blower with optional thermostat (wall mounted
or remote control) for the fireplace, your fire-
place and blower will not turn on and off at the
same time. The fireplace may run for several
minutes before blower turns on. After heater

continue to run. The blower will shut off after
firebox temperature decreases.
The blower helps distribute heated air from the
fireplace. Periodically check louvers of firebox
and remove any dust, dirt or other obstruc
-
tions that will hinder the flow of air.

several attempts, follow the instructions
