Install Optional Fan, #2767/FK26
Install the fan kit before the stove is connected to the
gas line.
The fan consists of a blower assembly and a
rheostat switch that are connected by a wire harness.
The blower attaches to brackets at the bottom of the
rear shroud. The rheostat installs within the remote
switch box, at the top left rear corner.
The fan kit includes a ‘snapstat’, a temperature-
sensing switch which will be mounted to the blower
duct just below the top plate of the stove. The snapstat
automatically turns the fan on or off at approximately
109
°
F.
The rheostat provides a range of fan speed settings
from OFF (which overrides the snapstat function) to
high.

• Fan assembly with rheostat and snapstat

These directions are oriented facing the rear of the
