Accessory Built-In Installation
For Built-In Installation
WARNING: A licensed elec-
trician must connect the wiring
harness to electrical supply
following all local codes. Electri-
cian must provide a clamp on the
box cover to secure the wiring.
Wiring should be routed through
the bushing in the hole on the
outer casing of fireplace.
1. Locate fan switch cover. Remove bottom
screw to remove back portion of the cover
(see Figure 18).
2. Install a snap bushing found in hardware kit into
one of the holes on rear of fan switch cover. The
other hole is for a strain relief clamp (not sup-
plied) to secure incoming electrical supply.
3. Follow steps 3 through 7 in Installing Blower
Accessory, page 14.
4. A licensed electrician must follow the wiring
diagram to connect incoming electrical supply
to fan kit wiring harness (see Figure 19).

5. Install the switch plate on front of fan
switch cover with 2 #10 screws provided
(see Figure 18). Using screw removed in
step one, reconnect front and rear of fan
switch cover.
6. Plug power cord to the outlet receptacle (not
provided) as shown in Figure 20, page 17. Wind
extra cable of power cord and tie it up with the
plastic wire strap (see Figure 20, page 17). Set
the cable bundle between the fan switch box
and outer casing, away from the burner.
7. Test to make sure the blower is working
properly.
8. Reinstall upper louver (see Figure 15, page 14)
and close lower louver.
Extension Cord
Use extension cord if needed. The cord must have
a three-prong, grounding plug and a three-hole
receptacle. Make sure cord is in good shape. It must
be heavy enough to carry the current needed. An un-
dersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage. This
will result in loss of power and overheating. Use a
No. 16 AWG cord for lengths less than 50 feet.
