Circulating Air Blower
The circulating air blower should be checked and cleaned annu-
ally by a qualified service person to ensure that your fireplace is
operating efficiently. Any dirt or lint can affect the operation of the
blower.
Heat Exchanger
The heat exchanger is located on the backside of the fireplace.
The heat exchanger should be inspected and cleaned annually by
a qualified service person.
Filter
The filter is located on the inside of the lower louver panel (on
fireplaces equipped with FIK, FFK or FWK Surrounds) or on the
inside bottom flange of the surround (FHK Surrounds).
To clean the filter on fireplaces equipped with the lower louver
panel, simply remove the panel and disengage the filter rod from
its retaining holes (Figures 78 and 79).
For fireplaces equipped with louverless FHK surrounds, the en-
tire surround must be removed from the fireplace. This is accom-
plished by lifting and removing the surround from the support
bracket hooks. Remove the filter retainers and filters from the in-
side bottom flange by removing the screw holding the filter retainer
in place (Figure 80).
The filters may be rinsed with water or blown clean with com-
pressed air.
