Electrical Installation Instructions For Optional Blower - Selkirk Chardonnay Installation And Operation Manual

9. The standards in your area may require an outside air inlet. Even if such is not the case, it is beneficial to do
so since this will improve the fireplace's performance. Install a flexible air duct that is 4" (102 mm) in
diameter and a maximum length of 20' (6.1 m). If a longer duct is required, increase diameter to 6"
(152 mm) but maximum length will then be 40' (12.2 m). The outside air intake must not come from a
garage, carport, basement, attic or the chimney's enclosure.
10. Install the outside air inlet in a place where it is unlikely to become blocked by snow and is sheltered from
high winds. Make sure it is far from the gas meter or any other device that may emit fumes or gases, such
as automobile exhaust.
11. Once you have decided on the location of the outside air inlet, drill a 4¼" (108 mm) hole in the wall. Insert
the inlet grill in the hole from the outside and screw it to the wall with four 1" (25 mm) screws.
12. From the inside, insert the insulated flexible duct and attach it to the inlet grill with aluminum duct tape or
¾" (19 mm) metal screws.
13. On the lower left side of the fireplace, remove the metal piece blocking the air intake. Cut the insulating
wool, insert the adaptor included with the fireplace and screw it in place using two ¾" (19) metal screws.
Using an adjustable collar or aluminum duct tape, attach the flexible duct to the adaptor.
14. Chardonnay fireplaces may be equipped with an optional blower with an automatic or manual switch
located behind the lower louver at your right. When switch is place on auto, the blower will activate when
fireplace reaches minimum starting temperature 43°C (110°F). When placed on manual, you control the
function of the blower with the speed control. Have the wiring installed by a qualified electrician (Figure
#5).
