INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED IN-

and must be electrically connected and grounded
in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local
codes, use the current CSA C22.1 C

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
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.

Attach the connectors from
the black and white wires
to the thermodisc and se-
cure the thermodisc
bracket to the securing
stud at the bottom left of
the unit using a lock
washer and wing nut. En-
sure that the thermodisc
touches the firebox wall.

Attach the connectors from
the black and red wires to
the blower.

Attach and secure the vari-
able speed switch using
the nut provided. Plug the
harness cord into the re-
ceptacle.

The wire harness provided in this kit is a universal
harness. When installed, ensure that any excess
wire is contained, preventing it from making con-
tact with moving 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 bear-
ings, 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 cov-
ered by the warranty policy.
