REPLACEMENT BLOWER INSTALLATION
The Napoleon gas fireplace insert comes standard with a blower, a heat sensor, variable on/off speed control and a power cord. Because the blower is thermally activated, when turned on, it will automatically start approximately 15 minutes after lighting the fireplace and will run for approxi- mately 30 minutes after the fireplace has been turned off. Use of the fan increases the output of heat. Air, drawn in through the lower slot, is driven up the back of the firebox, and exhausted as hot air through the upper slot.

5.Replace the blower using the existing bracket. Slide the vibration reducing pad (A) into the clip (C) and up against the threaded stud (B) at the other end. The blower must be able to be positioned entirely onto the pad.
Slide the blower into the clip (C). Secure to the threaded stud using the existing lock washer and wing nut. Ensure that the blower does not touch the fireplace base or the firebox.
6.Reconnect the two wires. Holding the replacement gas- ket in place, reattach the blower access door and panel. Replace the logs.
7.Turn the gas supply and electricity back on.
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.
