Adjusting the Blower Speed

The internal blower helps transfer
the heat from the fireplace into the
room. It will not turn on until the
fireplace is up to temperature
(approximately 10 minutes after
starting). See the illustration below
for instructions on adjusting the
blower speed.

Blower Knob

Turn the knob all the way counter-clockwise to turn
the blower off. One click clockwise turns the
blower to high speed. Turning the knob clockwise
from the high position decreases the speed of the
blower.

Optional Power Heat Duct

Allow the fireplace to reach normal operating temperature. Then use the wall-mounted rheostat to operate the
blower speed. The blower will automatically shut off after the fireplace cools.

Turn the dial all
the way counter-
clockwise until it
clicks off.

HIGH

The high position is
all the way counter-
clockwise, without
clicking off.

LOW

Turn the dial
all the way
clockwise.

Normal Operating Sounds

Gas Control Valve
As the gas control valve is turned on and off you
will hear a dull clicking sound. This is the valve
opening up and shutting down.

Blower Snap Disk
This part can produce a clicking sound as it
turns the blower on and off.

The appliance will creak with
change of temperature.

Pilot Flame
The pilot flame,
which remains on,
makes a very slight
"whisper" sound.

Blower
This heater uses two blowers to push heated air into
the room. You will hear the sound of air movement that
increases as the speed is increased.

Extinction Pops
It is not unusual, especially on Propane (LP) appliances,
to experience a "pop" when the burner is shut off.

Normal Operating Odors

This appliance has several areas that reach high temperatures. Dust or other particles on these areas may
burn and create an odor. This is normal during start-up. You may notice the smell is more acute if the
appliance was left idle for a long period.
