DESCRIPTION OF SYSTEM
The models listed above have been designed to accommodate the installation of an air circulation
fan. Operated by a variable speed control and a thermally actuated switch, the fan is designed to
boost the natural convection through the heater; this may be a desirable feature dependent on the
fi replace location and room layout. The circulating fan may be installed before the heater installation
or as a retrofi t at a later date.
OPERATION
The fan is designed for automatic operation using a thermal switch. It will take approximately 10-15
minutes for the appliance to warm up and allow the switch to activate the fan. To operate the fan,
rotate the speed control knob clockwise from OFF to HIGH. Further rotation will control the fan speed,
once the automatic thermal switch has been activated. If the fi re is turned off, the fan will continue
to operate until the thermal switch cools, unless the speed control is manually turned to the OFF
position.
Should electrical power fail, the heater operation will remain unaffected.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The fan kit requires a power supply of 120 Volts, 1 phase, 60 Hz. Full load current is less than 1
amp.
