The BK manual blower and BKT thermostati-
cally-controlled blower have an ON setting
and an OFF setting. Blower will only run when
switch is in the ON position. In the OFF posi-
tion, blower will not operate.
Note for BKT Only: If you are using BKT
blower with optional thermostat (wall mounted
or remote control) for fireplace, your fireplace
and blower will not turn on and off at the same
time. Fireplace may run for several minutes
before blower turns on. After heater modulates
to the pilot position, blower will continue to run.
Blower will shut off after firebox temperature
decreases.
The blower helps distribute heated air from
fireplace. Periodically check louvers of firebox
and remove any dust, dirt or other obstruc-
tions that will hinder the flow of air.
BURNER FLAME pATTERN
Burner flames will be steady, not lifting or float-
ing. Flame patterns will be different from unit
to unit and will vary depending on installation
type and weather conditions.
If the vent configuration is installed incorrectly,
flames will lift or "ghost". This can be danger-
ous. Inspect flames after installation to ensure
proper installation and performance.
Figure 45 shows a typical flame pattern.
If burner flame pattern differs from that de-
scribed:
• turn fireplace off (see To Turn Off Gas to
Appliance, page 28)
• see Troubleshooting, page 31
