If the fireplace was not previously equipped with a blower: route a grounded 2-wire, 60hz power cable to the receptacle / junction box. At this point, it must be strain relieved and insulated.

The three slots on the

blower mounting bracket allow ease of

adjustment when attaching the blower. For a quiet running

blower, do not allow the

 

assembly to sit on the

FIGURE 38

firebox base.

 

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.

Tilt the blower onto its side. Slide it past the controls and into the clip (C). Secure to the threaded stud using the lock washer and wing nut provided. Ensure that the blower does not touch the fireplace base or the firebox.

harness cord into the re-

 

ceptacle.

 

FIGURE 42

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.

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.

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.
