BLOWER OPERATION 

The Mendota DXV Fireplace is designed so the blower operates at all times the fireplace is operating.  The blower output can 
be regulated with the rheostat (included), but it must be "on" at all times the burner is "on".  NOTE:  There will be a time 
delay in blower operation during "heat-up" (approx. ½ hour) and extended blower operation during "cool-down" of unit. 
(approx. ½ hour) NOTE:  Power supply to blower must be continuous.  DO NOT use switch or variable control in power 
supplied to fireplace.
