LDVR Series Direct Vent Gas Fireplace
10007317
FK12
This auxiliary fan system increases the efficiency of the
circulation of the heating air.
The FK1 Fan Assembly is a fixed speed fan system and
does not allow for variable speed control. It does not use
the speed control unit or the heat sensor used in the FK4
Kit.
Specifications
115 Volts / 60 Hz / 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 is supplied fully wired eliminating the need
for a licensed electrician to carry out the installation.
1. Open the lower Louvre assembly. Move the fan & bracket
assembly around the gas valve and lines to locate the
unit against the back wall of the
appliance, resting
on the base.
. With the protective cover removed from the self-adhesive
‘Velcro’ strips apply mild pressure to the fan & bracket
unit to secure the strips to the metal panels. No further
securing is required.
3. Power to the fan can be supplied by plugging the supplied
lead into a conveniently located wall socket or by using
a hard-wired EB-1 receptacle box.

FK24 Fan Assembly
This auxiliary fan system increases the efficiency of the
circulation of the heated air.
The FK4 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.
. 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 56 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. # ZA100) 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.
