OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT
Blower Kits
The
FBK-100 Blower Kits
are used when
a wall-mounted ON/OFF blower switch is
desired, and the
FBK-200 Blower Kits
are
used when a wall-mounted variable speed
blower control (rheostat) is desired. A
Junction
Box / Electrical Kit
is also required to install these
kits (purchased separately - see
Page 15
)
.
The blower is installed beneath the fi rebox.
Room air is drawn in through the side slots
of the fi replace, heated as it passes across the
fi rebox, and discharged through the upper area
of the fi rebox opening.
The installation instructions for installing these
blower kits are on
Pages 12 through 14
. Also see
the installation instructions provided with the
blower kits (Form #750,028M). For electrical
requirements, refer to
Figures 14, 15 & 16.
If the blower kit is to be installed at the time of
installation or at a later date, the main power
supply must be installed at the time of instal-
lation.
This will require that the electrical
connections must be made BEFORE the fi rebox
is framed and enclosed in the fi nished walls.
Route a 3-wire, 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 1 ph power
supply and connect to electrical receptacle wires
and wall switch or rheostat.

IMPORTANT
The
Ground Lead
must be connected
to the green screw (located on the
junction box). Failure to do this
could result in an electrical short or
shock injury.
The appliance must be electrically
grounded in accordance with local
codes or, in the absence of local
codes, the national electrical code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-(latest edition). (In
Canada, the current CSA C22-1
Canadian Electrical Code).
CAUTION
Electrical connections should
only be performed by a qualifi ed,
licensed electrician. Main power
must be off when connecting to
main electrical power supply or
performing service.
