Blower Duct Connection (continued)
• The maximum length for 8" diameter blower
duct is 25' (use two 6" to 8" adapters)
• A maximum of two 90° bends may be used.
• The blower, if located on an external wall,
must be weatherproofed. Remove the
blower cover and install the blower. Apply
caulk around the perimeter of the blower
housing where it contacts the external wall
and vapor barrier (apply sparingly). Replace
the blower cover.

• Connect the electrical
conduit to a 120 Volt, 60
Hz (2 Amp) electrical
supply. Use a junction
box to protect the
electrical connection.
• Connect the blower
conduit to the blower
box by attaching the two
molex connectors
together. Insert the
molex connectors into
the blower box. Then
attach the conduit to the
blower box by inserting
it into the top until it

! Do not run either conduit over the top of the fireplace or within 2" of the chimney
• If the blower or power supply is located to the left, the electrical conduit(s) may be directed to the
left side of the fireplace. To do this, remove the conduit cover plate on both sides of the fireplace.
Feed the conduit(s) through the hole on the right side and out the left side (removing the cover
allows the conduit to be fed through without kinking). Switch the cover plates by attaching the right
cover plate to the left side and vice-versa.
• The blower utilizes a filter that requires periodic cleaning - see the illustration below.
Remove the four
screws that go into
these holes.
Shake the filter to remove any
dirt that may have accumulated.
