Installing Optional Rear Fans Optional fans can be installed in two locations depending on how the unit is being installed, the lower location can be used when the unit is being installed on the optional base. If you wish to install the unit on raised hearth, the higher fan mounting location can be used.

Installing Optional Rear Fans Optional fans require a standard double 240v GPO situated on the wall directly behind the fireplace. Optional fans should not be used within 45 minutes of starting the fireplace, this allows the firebox to warm up prior to heat being pulled from the heat exchanger. Using the optional fans prior will reduce the heat output of the fire and delay the warm up process dramatically.
VisionLINE warrants to the original owner of the VisionLINE appliance at the site of installation, and to any transferee taking ownership of the appliance at the site of installation within two years following the date of original purchase, that the VisionLINE appliance will be free from defects in materials and workmanship at the time of manufacture.
