Optional Blower - Heat & Glo PALOMA-BZ-MOD Owner's Manual

I. Optional Blower
The GFK-160A Blower has been designed to circulate room
air through the appliance to enhance heat output.
The GFK-160A blower system operates on 120 VAC, 60 Hz
power. This is available through a receptacle in the factory
installed junction box. The junction box is mounted in the
bottom of the appliance behind the access panel. A variable
speed control is provided with the blower system to provide
quiet forced air flow at the desired speeds. A temperature
sensor switch, which automatically turns the blower ON/
OFF, is also provided with this kit.
Compare contents of carton with the actual parts received.
If any parts are missing or damaged, contact your dealer
before starting installation. Do not install a damaged blower
kit. See Figure 8.21.
