OPERATING OPTIONAL

BLOWER ACCESSORY

Locate the blower controls by opening the lower louver panel

on the fireplace. Blower controls are located on the left side of

the switch bracket to the right just inside the louver panel.
The BK manual blower and the BKT thermostatically-controlled

blower have an ON setting and an OFF setting. The blower

will only run when the switch is in the ON position. In the OFF

position, the blower will not operate.
Note for BKT Only:

If you are using BKT blower with optional

thermostat (wall mounted or remote control) for the fireplace,

your fireplace and blower will not turn on and off at the same

time. The fireplace may run for several minutes before the blower

turns on. After the heater modulates to the pilot position, the

blower will continue to run. The blower will shut off after the

firebox temperature decreases.
The blower helps distribute heated air from the fireplace. Peri-

odically check the louvers of the firebox and remove any dust,

dirt or other obstructions that will hinder the flow of air.
