N. Blower Operation
Instructions with Blower Override Switch in manual posi-
tion.
NOTE: The blower is equipped with a snap disc that will turn
the blower on and off depending on the temperature of the
fireplace. If the blower is not coming on at the desired time,
flip the override switch to manual and operate the blower as
described above.
The override switch and the blower speed control are hard
wired at time of installation and installed in a standard wall
mount with junction box on the wall.
O. Heat Zone Operation
The Heat-Zone accessory kit conveys warm air from the
fireplace through air duct(s) to remote locations in the same
room or other rooms of the building. You may install 1 or
2 Heat-Zone kits on the fireplace. Follow the instructions
that is supplied with the kit. Installation of this kit MUST be
performed by a qualified service technician. If any parts are
missing or damaged, contact your local dealer before starting
installation. DO NOT install a damaged kit.
The Heat-Zone kit is carefully engineered and must be
installed only as specified. If you modify it or any of its com-
ponents, you will void the warranty and you may possibly
cause a fire hazard. Installation must be done according to
applicable local, state, provincial, and/or national codes.
CAUTION
ALL wiring should be done by a qualified electrician and
shall be in compliance with local codes and with the National
Electric Code NFPA/NEC No. 70-current (in the United
States), or with the current CSC22.1 Canadian Electric
Code (in Canada).

1. Initial (cold) Startup: Leave blower off until your fire-
place is hot and a good coal bed is established, ap-
proximately 30 minutes after fuel is lit.
2. High Burn Setting: The blower may be left on
throughout the burn.
3. Medium or Medium High Burn Setting: The blower
should be left off until a good burn is established, then
turned on medium or high rate.

fireplace. Leave blower off until the burn is well estab-
lished; then, if you wish, turn the blower on at a low
rate.
P. Opacity
T
his is the measure of how cleanly your fireplace is burn-
ing. Opacity is measured in percent; 100% opacity is when
an object is totally obscured by the smoke column from a
chimney, and 0% opacity means that no smoke column can
be seen. As you become familiar with your fireplace, you
should periodically check the opacity. This will allow you
to know how to burn your fireplace as nearly smoke-free
as possible (goal of 0% opacity).
Q. Chimney Fire
In the event of a chimney fire:
• Have the chimney and adjacent structure inspected by
qualified professionals. Hearth & Home Technologies
recommends that NFI or CSIA certified professionals, or
technicians under the direction of certified professionals,
conduct a minimum of an NFPA 211 Level 2 inspection
of the chimney.
• Replace components of the chimney and fireplace as
specified by the professionals.
• Ensure all joints are properly engaged and the chimney
is properly secured.
A chimney fire can permanently damage your chimney sys-
tem. Failure to replace damaged components and make
proper repairs creates risk of fire.
