The wire harness provided in this kit is a universal har- ness. When installed, ensure that any excess wire is contained, preventing it from making contact with mov- ing or hot objects.

Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bearings, causing irreparable damage. Care must be taken to prevent drywall dust from coming into contact with the blower or its compartment. Any damage resulting from this condition is not covered by the warranty policy.

Because the blower is thermally activated, when turned on, it will automatically start approximately 10 minutes after lighting the fireplace and will run for approximately 30 - 45 minutes after the fireplace has been turned off. Use of the fan increases the output of heat.
