The FBK-100/200 Blower Kits are design certi-
fied by Warnock Hersey for use with these
appliances.
Always check local building codes. Installation
of the FBK Blower Kits must comply with local
regulations as well as the National Electric
Code.
Combustion Air Kits
These appliances are equipped with an outside
(make-up) air door and integral actuator arm. If
the appliance is to be installed with an outside
air vent system, use only FireCraft Models
FAOK or FAOK-LD Combustion Air Kits. These
kits come complete with detailed installation
instructions and all components necessary in
completing a combustion air vent system.
After completing the installation of the optional
combustion air vent system the actuator arm
must be put in service and tested to ensure
proper operation before completing any enclo-
sure around the firebox. Failure to do so may
HOUSE
result in extensive and costly rework.

To operate, push the end of the actuator to the
left as shown in Figure 42 , until it "pops" free of
its "locked" position. Pull the actuator forward
to open the combustion air door, and push it
back to close. To "lock" the combustion air door
closed, ensure the actuator is pushed all the
way back then push the end of the actuators to
the right until the step in the actuator moves
behind the appliance front face within the slot-
ted opening.
Operate the actuator through several cycles
including the "lock position. Ensuring proper
operation and freedom of movement. Return
the actuator arm to the locked position.

Gas Line Connection
Install only a ¹⁄₂" black iron pipe through fire-
place wall for connection to a decorative gas
appliance inside the firebox. Outside, the iron
pipe connects to a gas shut-off valve recessed
flush into the wall or floor. The valve should be
controlled by a removable valve key for safety.
Always plumb gas line installation per local
codes. Check all connections with soap suds;
leaks will bubble. Never test any gas line con-
nection with a match or open flame.
This provision is intended for connection to a
decorative gas appliance incorporating an au-
tomatic shut-off device and complying with the
Standard for Decorative Gas Appliances for
installation in vented fireplaces, ANSI Z21.60
(1991) or American Gas Association draft re-
quirements for Gas-Fired Log Lighters for Wood
Burning Fireplaces, Draft No. 4 dated August,
1993. Install in accordance with the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. This complies
with the revised U.L. 127 standard.
Vent Free Appliances
This unit has been tested and approved to
ANSI/IAS/AGA Z21.11.2 for use with unvented
gas appliances and complies with the stan-
dard for Factory-Built fireplaces, UL 127, when
installed with unvented gas log sets. Special
instructions with regards to mantle installa-
tions must be taken into consideration when
installing such appliances.
The unit has been tested for use with any
unvented log sets having a maximum rating of
26,000 BTU. The minimum mantle configura-
tion for these log sets are outlined in Figure 43 .
Log sets with 40,000 BTU may be installed
provided that no combustible mantle projec-
tions are placed lower than 18 inches from the
fireplace opening.
These fireplaces have been marked with a
maximum rating of 26,000 BTU to assure that
homeowners do not exceed the allowable lim-
its for all allowed installations of mantles. That
limit may be increased to 40,000 BTU, pro-
vided that the mantle installed complies with
the 18-inch limitation and a copy of these
instructions are available.
NEVER INSTALL AN UNVENTED GAS LOG
SET WITH A BTU GREATER THAN 26,000 IF
COMBUSTIBLE MANTLE PROJECTIONS ARE
LOWER THAN 18 INCHES ABOVE THE FIRE-
PLACE OPENING.
