BLOWER ACCESS DOOR
The Napoleon gas fireplace insert comes standard with a
blower, a heat sensor, variable on/off speed control and a
power cord. Because the blower is thermally activated,
when turned on, it will automatically start approximately 15
minutes after lighting the fireplace and will run for approxi-
mately 30 minutes after the fireplace has been turned off.
Use of the fan increases the output of heat. Air, drawn in
through the lower slot, is driven up the back of the firebox,
and exhausted as hot air through the upper slot.
