Model BKT Installation
Note: When installing the BKT thermostatical-
ly-controlled blower, you must first secure the
wiring connections from the thermal switch to
the blower (if it has not already been factory
installed).
1. Attach green ground wire from power cord
to blower housing using screw provided
(see Figure 38) Tighten screws securely
with a Phillips screwdriver.
2. Connect wire harness and power cord
terminals. Connect the jumper wire to
the blower motor terminal to the terminal
of the thermal switch. Connect one wire
of the thermal switch and one wire to the
other remaining blower motor terminal.
Note: The power cord outer insulation sleeve
may have to be stripped slightly to allow
enough wire length to reach and make all
connections. DO NOT trim excessive length
away. Just enable enough to make all con-
nections securely.
3. Place the blower against the lower rear
wall of the firebox outer wrapper with
the exhaust port directed upward. Attach
Thermal disc magnetic bracket to the bot-
tom of the firebox sub-floor. The thermo
-
disc must be oriented near the fireplace
bottom as shown in Figure 38, in order to
sense temperature and properly operate.
The blower will be held in position against
the back wall by the magnets incorporated
onto the blower housing (see Figure 38).
4. Be certain that all wire terminals are
securely attached to terminals on blower
motor and that the screw retaining the
green ground wire is tight.
5. Mount speed control box against mounting
plate provided in lower fireplace cavity by
placing plastic control shaft forward through
round hole (see Figure 36, page 21).
6. While supporting speed control, secure
control shaft with lock nut by pushing
and turning lock nut with pliers clockwise
until it is tight against mounting plate.
Place provided control knob on shaft
(see Figure 36, page 21).

10. Peel off backing paper and stick supplied
wiring diagram decal on firebox bottom
approximately 12" in front of blower (see
Figure 37).
7. Check to make sure that power cord is
completely clear of blower wheel and
that there are no foreign objects in blower
wheel. Also double check all wire leads
and make sure wire routing is not pinched
or in a precarious position. Correct ac-
cordingly.
8. Turn on power to duplex outlet if previ-
ously turned off per warning in column 1,
page 21.
9. Plug in blower power cord to duplex
outlet.
