The BL Therm alarm on the BioBarrier system indicates that the blower is overheating and drawing more amps than the maximum set point.

To resolve this:
- Check if the blower vent(s) or airline is blocked or undersized.
- Check the water level inside the tank.
- Inspect and clean the intake air filter.
- If necessary, increase the Max Amp set point above the blower's operation amp draw.
