7.2 INSTALLING THE BLOWER
INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER and must be electrically connected and
grounded in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 Canadian
electrical code in Canada or the ANSI / NFPA 70 National Electrical Code in the United States
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 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
appliance base or the firebox.
Attach the connectors from the black and white
wires to the thermal switch. Ensure that the
thermal switch makes contact the with the burner
base.
Attach the connectors from the black and red
wires to the blower. Ensure that the wires are
routed safely away from hot objects and retained
from the blower impellers.
Attach and secure the variable speed switch to the
corner post. However this is difficult to access when
the appliance is operating. For frequent useage
consider an alternative position beside your appli-
ance wall switch. If the wire does not reach, then it
must be cut and a splice added.
These connections must conform with local codes or,
in the absence of local codes, use the current CSA
C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code in Canada or the
ANSI/NFPA 70 National Electrical Code in the United
States.
Plug the blower cord into the receptacle.
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.
Because the blower is thermally activated, when turned on, it will automati-
cally start approximately 10-30 minutes after lighting the appliance and will
run for approximately 30-40 minutes after the appliance has been turned
off. Use of the fan increases the heat output of the appliance.
