Turn the gas supply and electricity back on.

Because the blower is thermally activated, when turned on, it will automatically start approximately 15-30 min- utes after lighting the stove and will run for approximately 30-45 minutes after the stove has been turned off. Use of the fan increases the output of heat.

Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bearings caus- ing irreparable damage and must be prevented from coming into contact with the blower or its compartment. Any damage resulting from this condition is not cov- ered by the warranty policy.
