Warning:

Do  not  interchange  the  variable  speed  control

between the central heat blower kit and the internal blower
kit. 

(Figure  31)  shows  some  ways  of  ducting  the  hot  air  from
the  blower.  You  are  not  restricted  in  the  size  of  pipe,  as
long as the total cross sectional area of all runs combined
is  not  less  than  50  square  inches.  The  diagram  shows
alternate  blower  locations.  Only  one  external  blower  can
be installed.

1.  If the blower fails to operate, check the following:

a) Consult the wiring diagram to assure proper connec-
tions.

b) To assure proper contact, check the motor lead wiring,
incoming supply wiring, and capacitor connections.

c) If possible, use a meter to test for continuity between
the fan leads.  Please note that the capacitor will show no
reading if it is tested with a meter.

2.  If  the  blower  still  fails  to  operate,  consult  your  local
RSF  Woodburning  Fireplaces  authorized  dealer  for
repair or replacement instructions.

ZONE HEATING (FD-HCZ-1 AND FD-HCZ-2)

For  more  regional  heat  control,  the  Delta  is  ideally  suited
for zone heating. (Figure 38) shows an example of a three
zone  system.  The  thermostat  simultaneously  opens  the
desired valve and starts the blower when heat is required.
The zone control system consists of:

1 - FD-HCZ-1

- 1 control box

(figure 32)

- 1 blower transformer relay
- 1 thermo disc

NOTE:  The  FD-HCZ-1  replaces  the  FD-HC6  if  you  are
installing the zone system.

1 to 3 - FD-HCZ-2

- 1 zone valve (normally closed)

(figure 33)

- 1 thermostat

The  system  is  wired  similarly  to  the  central  heat  system
with the addition of the control box and the zone heat valve
(see Figure 39).  The whole system runs on 24V AC.  Make
sure  that  the  thermostats  are  matched  with  the  correct
zone valve.

NOTE:  THE  Delta  MUST  BE  INSTALLED  IN  ACCOR-
DANCE WITH ALL LOCAL CODES, IF ANY. IF NOT, FOL-
LOW  THE  CURRENT  CSA C22.1  IN  CANADA OR
NFPA70 IN USA. INSTALL AND USE AS PER THE MAN-
UFACTURER'S  INSTALLATION  AND  OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS.
