4.1 Blower
A blower is already installed on this insert. It is located
underneath the ash lip, in front of the insert. Its function
is to increase airflow through the heat exchanger and
improve hot air circulation in the room. When used
regularly, the blower can provide a small increase in
efficiency, up to 2%. However, the use of a blower
should not be used as a way to gain more output from
an insert that is undersized for the space it is intended
to heat.
Blower location
The blower has a rheostat that can be adjusted in three different
positions; either from high (HI) to low (LO) or closed (OFF).
Allow the insert to reach operating temperature (approximately
one hour) before turning on the blower, since increased airflow
from the blower will remove heat and affect the start up
combustion efficiency.
The blower is also equipped with a heat sensor. When the
blower is ON, it will start automatically when the insert is hot
enough and it will stop when the insert has cooled down.
Therefore, the blower speed control can be left at the desired
setting.

4.2 Fire Screen
This insert has been tested for use with an open door in conjunction with a fire screen, sold
separately. The fire screen must be properly secured on the insert to avoid any risk of sparks
damaging the flooring. When the fire screen is in use, do not leave the insert unattended to
respond promptly in the event of smoke spillage into the room. Potential causes of smoke
spillage are described in Section
«10. The Venting System»
of this manual. See
«Annexe 4:
Optional Fire Screen Installation»
for installation instructions.
OPERATING THE INSERT WITH A FIRE SCREEN INCREASES POSSIBILITIES OF
GENERATING CARBON MONOXIDE. CARBON MONOXIDE IS AN ODOURLESS GAS
THAT IS HIGHLY TOXIC WHICH CAN CAUSE DEATH AT HIGH CONCENTRATION IN AIR.
INSTALLATION OF A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Ensure the blower cord is not in contact
with any surface of the insert to prevent
electrical shock or fire damage. Do not
run cord beneath the insert.
