Install the Optional Fan
1. The fan kit includes a blower assembly and a rheo-
stat assembly, connected by a cable. The blower as-
sembly mounts to the bottom rear of the stove, and
the rheostat mounts to the left side of the valve. The
assembly includes a ‘snapstat’ which automatically
turns the fan ON (or OFF) above (or below) approxi-
mately 109°F. The rheostat also provides a range
of fan speed settings from Off (which overrides the
snapstat function) to High. Unpack and inspect the
blower assembly. Confirm that the fan spins freely.
2. Attach the fan assembly to the bracket provided in
the log box. Use #10 sheet metal screws provided
with fan kit. Do not remove finger guard screws.
(Fig. 8)
3. Connect snapstat leads. Disconnect the snapstat
module from the leads inside the snapstat bracket.
(Fig. 9) Bend open the snapstat bracket. Use needle
nose pliers to remove the black plastic grommet
from the bracket. Discard the bracket. Connect the
two wires to the two snapstat extension leads pro-
vided with the parts bag (wires with the sleeve).
4. Disassemble the inner shroud from the outer shroud
by removing the four screws, two on each side.
5. Place the grommet provided in the manual bag as
-
sembly on the inner shroud. Run the snapstat exten-
sion assembly leads through the grommet toward
the firebox. (Fig. 10)
6. Assemble the inner shroud to the outer shroud using
previously removed screws.
7. Position the fan assembly so the ducts slide be
-
tween the inner and outer shroud. The inner shroud
should engage with the two slots in the ends of the
bracket so the bracket and shroud are interlocked.
(Fig. 11) Secure the bracket with the four sheet
metal screws provided in the finish bag.
8. Install the snapstat by loosening the front screw
on the inner side of the duct. (Fig. 12) Slide the
snapstat under the head of the screw and tighten.
Connect the leads to the snapstat. Make sure the
snapstat assembly is mounted straight front to back.
