Because the blower is thermally activated, when turned on, it will automatically start approximately 5-15 minutes after lighting the appliance insert and will run for ap- proximately 30-45 minutes after the appliance insert has been turned off. Use of the fan increases

the output of heat.

Drywall dust will penetrate into the blower bear- ings causing irreparable damage and must be prevented from coming into contact with the blower or its compartment. Any damage result- ing from this condition is not covered by the warranty policy.
