WIRING INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLING A DUAL SWITCH / RECEPTACLE

In order to install both the optional Blower and Accent Light ac- cessories, it will be necessary to install the junction box so that the Duplex Receptacle wiring is split. This will allow each side of the receptacle to operate independently off separate wall switches. See diagram below.

CAUTION: ALL WIRING SHOULD BE DONE BYA QUAL- IFIED ELECTRICIAN AND SHALL BE IN COMPLIANCE WITHALLLOCAL, CITYAND STATE BUILDING CODES. BEFORE MAKING THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION, MAKE SURE THAT MAIN POWER SUPPLY IS DISCON- NECTED. 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 (LATEST EDITION).

1.To wire Junction Box Receptacle, remove the tab on the side of the receptacle (hot side) to split receptacle. This will be required to separate blower and Accent Light circuits.

2.Power for switched and live sides of Duplex Receptacle must come from the same power source. (One circuit breaker on main panel must switch all power off.)

3.From the wall box to the fireplace a 3-wire conductor with ground is recommended, however (2) two-wire conductors with grounds may be used in place of a 3-wire conductor with a ground if the black wires from the Accent Light and blower accessories are identified.

4.Two wall switches may be used to activate the two receptacle plugs independently.

Note: Wiring to the Junction Box should be run through the 7/8" diameter access hole located on one of the sides of the fireplace outer wall. A Romex type connector is provided and should be used to protect and restrain the wiring where it passes through the fireplace outer wall. The Junction Box should be positioned in the lower compartment of the fireplace/firebox so that it does not interfere with moving parts of the blower assembly. The Junction Box incorporates magnets on the bottom side to retain and reduce the chance of movement or vibration during blower operation.

Note: If only the blower option is to be installed, wiring may be performed as described and illustrated in the following Blower Installation section.
