BLOWER INSTALLATION
FIGURE 51
The Napoleon STARfire comes equipped with a blower, a
heat sensor, variable on/off speed control and a power cord.
The blower is thermally activated, so when it is turned on, it
will automatically start approximately 15 minutes after light-
ing the fireplace and will run for approximately 30 minutes
after the fireplace has been turned off. Use of the fan in-
creases the output of heat. Air, drawn in through the lower
louvre access door, is driven up the back of the firebox, and
exhausted as hot air between the upper louvres.
BLOWER SYSTEM
1. Open the lower control area.
2. Remove the control panel (3 screws).
3. Unplug the blower from the junction box or turn off the
power to the fireplace if hardwired.
4. Undo the fastener at the left side of the blower mounting
plate. The blower should now slide to the left, away from
the mounting tab.
5. Finally, disconnect the slip-on connectors at the motor of
the blower.
