WARNINGS
The blower must be plugged directly into a properly
groundedthree-prongreceptacle,120VAC,60Hz,single
phase. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from
this plug. Do not route power cord under or in front of
appliance.
Installation must be in accordance with National Elec-
trical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition. In Canada,
the current CSA C22-1 Canadian Electrical Code - latest
edition.
DANGER: Disconnect power before servicing blower.
In the event that you remove the blower for any reason,
make sure a cover plate (available from Lennox Hearth
Products) is installed before using the heater. Excessive
rear wall temperatures will result if the stove is burned
without the cover plate. The cover plate is not necessary
if a blower has never been installed because a knock-out
will be in place to act as the cover.

GENERAL INFORMATION
This optional blower kit can be installed to improve hot air distribution
throughout the room. The 700-CFM room air circulation blower kit comes
with a variable speed control (rheostat) and an snap switch which will
provide automatic thermal activation of the blower, when desired (see
Blower Operation on Page 6).
If you encounter any problems, need clarification of these instructions or
are not qualified to properly install this kit, contact your local distributor
or dealer.
Read this instruction sheet in its entirety before beginning the installa-
tion.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Install Blower Assembly
Step 1. Remove the contents from the blower kit.
Step 2. Using a 5/32” allen wrench/T-handle remove the screws in the
round knock-out plate on the back of the stove. Bend the knock-
out plate back and forth until it can be removed.
Step 3. Using a 5/32” allen wrench/T-handle, remove the four screws
and washers from the back of the stove. Next, mount the blower
as shown in Figure 2 and the following instructions; Ensure the
wiring harness on the blower cage is at the bottom right when
mounted to the back heat shield of the stove. Be aware that the
blower wiring harness should be clear of the back of the firebox
and blower fan blades. The blower can now be fastened to the
back of the heat shield with the four screws and washers that
were removed earlier in this step using the 5/32” allen wrench/
T-handle. Visually inspect that the blower is centered in large
opening on the back of the heatshield. If not centered in the
opening the fan blades could make contact with the heatshield
making excessive noise. Once everything is correctly in place
you can then tighten down all four screws. Tighten the screws
moderately tight but do not over tighten as you may strip the
holes out.
Step 4. While holding the snap switch bracket against the pedestal, slide
the bracket towards the rear of the stove until it comes to a stop.
Once the snap switch bracket is in place you can then remove the
flat head screwdriver or pry bar that was used to create the opening
between the firebox bottom and pedestal. See Figure 6.
Step 3. Insert snap switch bracket mounting tabs between the pedestal
and the firebox bottom. See Figure 5.

Step 2. Insert a large flat head screwdriver or pry bar into the small open-
ing between the pedestal mounting flange and the bottom firebox
of the stove. Use the large screwdriver or pry bar to increase
the opening size between the firebox bottom and pedestal. See
Figure 4 - This increased opening between the pedestal and
bottom firebox will be needed to insert the snap switch bracket
mounting tabs.

Step 5. With the snap switch bracket in place, using a 9/16” wrench or
socket wrench you can now tighten down both left and right side
pedestal bolts. See Figure 7.
Step 6. Locate the 3/8” diameter x 1/2” long bolt on the bottom of the
firebox near the draft handle. Using a 9/16” wrench or socket
loosen this bolt but do not remove from threaded hole. See
Figure 8. Note: This bolt was holding the stoves shipping legs
on the stove and should have been reinstalled with the other
three bolts that were holding the shipping legs on the stove per
the pedestal instructions.
Step 7. Locate front slot on the Control Box as shown in Figure 9.
Step 8. Install the control box by sliding the front control box slot over the
3/8” bolt head from Step 6. Slide control box towards the center
of the stove until it stops on the tabs. See Figure 10.
Step 9. Using a 9/16” open end wrench tighten down the 3/8” bolt hold-
ing the control box. See Figure 11.
Step 10. Connect the wire harness from blower to female connector on
rear of snap switch bracket. See Figure 12.

Step 1. Using a 9/16” wrench or socket loosen the left heat shield bolt.
This bolt is located on the bottom side of the leg heatshield as
shown. See Figure 14.

Step 2. Insert snap switch bracket between the heatshield and the bottom
of firebox making sure entire assembly is on the left side of the
heatshield bolt. Slide back until the notch on the bottom front of
the bracket falls into the lip on the front of the heatshield, and as-
sembly is parallel with side of firebox. See Figures 15 and 16.
Step 3. Locate the tabs on the back of the control box. Slide the tabs onto
the upper edge of the left side of the heatshield. See Figures
17 and 18.

Step 11.Visually inspect wires are clear of contact with bottom of firebox.
See Figures 11 through 13.
Step 12. Plug the power cord into a grounded 120 VAC receptacle. Do
not route the power cord under the stove or allow it to come in
contact with any surface of the stove.

Blower Operation Guidelines
While in auto operation mode, the blower will turn off and on based on the
temperature of the stove. Auto operation ensures there is sufficient heat
build-up to warm the air being moved by the blower before the blower is
turned on. Likewise, when the stove cools off, the blower is turned off
Blower Operation
The blower can be operated manually or automatically (blower will
turn on when the stove is hot and turn off when the stove is cool).
The rocker switch on the control panel allows you to select between
manual operation or automatic operation as follows (see Figure 23):
MANUAL OPERATION: Turn rocker switch to the “MANU-
AL” position and adjust rheostat knob to the desired speed. The blower
will have to be manually turned “OFF” by rotating the rheostat knob
counterclockwise until it clicks.
AUTO OPERATION: Turn rocker switch to the “AUTO” posi-
tion and the rheostat to the ON position (rotate rheostat knob clockwise
until it clicks). When the stove warms up, the blower will automatically
turn on (adjust rheostat knob to the desired speed setting). When the
stove cools down, the blower will automatically turn off.
Rheostat Operation - The highest blower speed is obtained by turning
the rheostat knob clockwise until it clicks “ON”, then rotate towards
“HIGH” to increase blower speed. Rotate the knob clockwise for a
lower speed. To turn off, continue to rotate the knob counterclockwise
until it clicks “OFF.”

to prevent circulating cool air. Depending on the size and intensity of the
fire it may be necessary to adjust the fan speed accordingly to ensure un-
interrupted fan operation. For example a small fire may require a slower
fan speed to keep the heat output by the fan consistent. If the blower is
operated in manual mode, it may be necessary to adjust the blower speed
as the fire begins to burn down and the stove is no longer hot enough to
effectively heat the air moved by the blower. If the air coming from the
blower feels cool, one should either decrease the blower speed or stoke
the fire to build up more heat.
