OPERATING OPTIONAL
BLOWER ACCESSORY
Locate the blower controls by opening the
lower louver panel on the fireplace. Blower
controls are located on the left side of the
switch bracket to the right just inside the
louver panel.
The BK manual blower and the BKT
thermostatically-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, the blower
will not operate.
Note for BKT Only:
If you are using BKT
blower with optional thermostat (wall
mounted or remote control) for the fire
-
place, your fireplace and blower will not
turn on and off at the same time. The
fireplace may run for several minutes
before the blower turns on. After the fire
-
place modulates to the pilot position, the
blower will continue to run. The blower
will shut off after the firebox temperature
decreases.
The blower helps distribute heated air
from the fireplace. Periodically check the
louvers of the firebox and remove any
dust, dirt or other obstructions that will
hinder the flow of air.
INSPECTING BURNERS
Check pilot flame pattern and burner flame
patterns often.
