FK24 Fan Assembly
This auxiliary fan system increases the efficiency of the
circulation of the heated air.
The FK24 fan kit allows variable speed control of the
circulation fan and also incorporates a heat sensor in
the circuit.
Specifications
115 Volt / 60Hz / 56 Watts
Maintenance
The fan itself does not require regular maintenance,
however periodic cleaning of the fan and the
surrounding area is required.
Check the area under the control door (lower louvre
assembly) and in front of the fan and wipe or vacuum
this area at least once a month during the operating
season.
Installation
The fan assembly and other components are supplied
fully wired, eliminating the need for a licensed
electrician to carry out the installation.
If hard wiring the fan using Method B (following) we
strongly recommend the use of a licensed electrician.
1. Open the lower louvre assembly. Move the fan &
bracket assembly around the gas valve and lines to
locate the unit onto the screw studs on the back of
the fireplace.
2. Install the thermal sensor under the bottom of the of
the firebox, locating it over the two 10mm studs and
secure it with nuts.
3. Locate the fan speed control unit. This can be fitted
behind the lower louvre assembly as in Figure 51 or
located remotely in a conveniently located wall
mounted electrical box. Remote location of the
speed control will require suitable extension of the
component wiring.
4. The power supply may be connected in two ways:
Method A
Route the 6’ lead fitted to the unit to a conveniently
located wall socket.
Method B (Using EB-1 Receptacle Box)
The EB-1 receptacle box (Pt. # ZA1200) may be
hard wired into the house supply. The fan lead is
then plugged into the EB-1 box.
For instruction on
wiring the EB-1 receptacle box see the earlier chapter
in the Installation section of this manual.
