OPTIONAL SINGLE SPEED BLOWER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Attention:
Install blower assembly before connecting gas inlet
supply line.
Wiring
The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70
, if an exter-
nal electrical source is utilized.
This appliance is equipped with
a three-prong [grounding] plug for your protection against
shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly
grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the
grounding prong from this plug.
For an ungrounded receptacle,
an adapter, which has two prongs and a wire for grounding, can
be purchased, plugged into the ungrounded receptacle and its wire
connected to the receptacle mounting screw. With this wire com-
pleting the ground, the appliance cord plug can be plugged into
the adapter and be electrically grounded.
Caution:
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servic-
ing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous
operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
Note:
Junction box on right side of firebox must be pre-wired at
time of firebox installation for use with blower assembly. A
standard wall ON/OFF wall switch or optional SCV1 Vari-
able Speed Control Kit should be installed to activate pow-
er to the Firebox, and control the operation of the FBB5
Blower assembly. It is recommended that installation of the
wiring be performed by a qualified electrician.
See Figure
12.

CAL CONNECTION, MAKE SURE THAT MAIN POWER
SUPPLY IS DISCONNECTED. THE APPLIANCE, WHEN
INSTALLED, MUST BE ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES, WITH THE
NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE ANSI/NFPA 70 (LAT-
EST EDITION).
A factory installed junction box is located on the lower right
side of the firebox. Wiring must be fed to the junction box
and attached to the receptacle that is provided. From right

box assembly. Leave approximately 6” of wire in the junction
box for connection.
