OPTIONAL BLOWER SYSTEM
INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER
and must be electrically connected and grounded in accor-
dance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 C
ANADIAN
ELECTRICAL
CODE
in Canada or
the ANSI/NFPA 70-1990
NATIONAL
ELECTRICAL
CODE
in the United States.
1.
Turn off the gas supply to the fireplace, if
necessary. Mount the variable speed switch: in-
sert the rheostat stem through the 3/8" diameter
hole in the pedestal and from the front secure
with the pal nut. Add the knob.
2.
Reaching in from the back of the unit, locate
the bracket holding the heat sensor as shown to
the weld stud and secure using one of the #6
nuts.
3.
Attach the bare end of wire
(A)
to the
black
wire of the speed switch using a nut connector.
Attach the flag connector at the other end to one
of the prongs of the heat sensor.
4.
Insert the universal bushing into the 7/8" di-
ameter hole in the back of the pedestal.
5.
Thread the leads of the power cord through
the slot located at the bottom left of the stove
back panel. Attach the terminal of the ground wire
(green)
to the threaded weld stud and secure
with a nut.
6.
Connect one bare lead of wire
(B)
to the
white
wire of the speed switch
using a nut connector. Connect the other end to the bare lead wire of the blower
cord using a nut connector.
7.
Attach the other terminal of
the wire
(already attached to the
blower)
to the heat sensor. One
end must be pushed through the
bushing in order to connect to the
blower prong.
8.
Mount the cord terminal to
the other blower prong.
9.
Using the holes shown, at-
tach the blower to the back stove panel.
10.
Bring out any slack
in the blower cord. Place the cord into the split
strain relief bushing, just at the point where the cord enters the slot. Clamp the two pieces together and insert the bushing
securely into the slot.
Leak test using a soap and water solution, if the gas supply was disconnected at the valve. Because the blower is thermally
activated, when turned on, it will automatically start approximately 15-30 minutes after lighting the fireplace and will run for
approximately 30-45 minutes after the fireplace has been turned off. Use of the fan increases the output of heat.
