OPTIONAL BLOWER 
ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION 

 

Proper installation of the blower system 
is required to insure that the maximum 
discharge of air can be delivered through 
the louvers on each side of the fireplace 
for better access. 
 
NOTE: You may perform this 
installation from either side of the 
fireplace. The lower door panels are 
removable from both sides of the firebox 
for better access. 
1.  Remove the blower assembly from 
the packaging and inspect the fan and 
wiring for damage. If any wiring is loose 
or damaged, return the assembly for 
exchange to your dealer or distributor. 
2.  Remove the 2 screws located at the 
top of the lower door panel. Slide door 
panel forward and up to remove tabs on 
panel from locating slots in firebox (see 
Figure 16). 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

3.  Locate the two strips of hook and 
loop mounting strips on one side of the 
base of the lower compartment. Align 
the mounting strips on blower with 
mounting strips on base of firebox. 
4.  Install blower housing with exhaust 
outlet ports directed upwards along inner 
side wall of lower compartment. The 
blower outlets must be installed flush to 
the outer cabinet for air to flow properly. 
5.  Apply gentle force between hook 
and loop mounting strips to seat blower. 
6.  Remove control knob and lock nut 
from blower speed control shaft. 
7. Place the speed control shaft 
through 3/8” hole provided in right side 
of lower door panel removed in Step 2. 
8. While supporting speed control 
housing, secure shaft in panel hole with 
lock nut. Place control knob on shaft. 
9. Plug blower power cord into 
receptacle located in lower firebox 
compartment. Check to make sure there 
are no foreign objects in blower wheel. 
10. Turn blower on and check for 
proper operation. 

 

 

11.  Turn blower off before continuing. 
12. Replace lower door panel by 
inserting tabs on bottom of panel into 
locating slots on firebox. Push door 
panel into an upright position and secure 
with screws removed in step 2.

off. After about 10 minutes, turn the 
blower on to deliver heated air at the top 
louvers. The blower features a variable 
control which, allows you to select the 
blower speed you desire. 
 

NOTE:

 Periodically check the louvers 

of the firebox and remove any dust, dirt 
or obstructions.
