1. Remove the rear skirt. Use work gloves to protect your
hands. Remove six (6) sheet metal screws around the
edge of the draft hood opening. (‘A’, Figure 14) Remove
the rear skirt cover plate: three (3) screws hold it on.
(‘B’,Figure 14) Remove one (1) sheet metal screw holding
the switch box to the rear skirt. Loosen the Phillips head
bolt on each side of the rear skirt. (‘C’, Figure 14) Carefully
pull the skirt assembly straight back; a wire tie holds two
(2) wiring harnesses to the rear skirt. Set the skirt down
carefully, either remove the wire tie, or let the harnesses
hold the skirt edge off the oor.
2. Position the fan assembly. Place the fan behind the
rear skirt as shown in Figure 15. Pass the fan rheostat
assembly and snapstat assembly up through the slot in
the horizontal top surface of the fan shield attached to the

6. Bring the rheostat cord to the inside of the stove; pass the
cord through the slot at the edge of the rear skirt, where
the on/off switch passes through. Lift the rear skirt into
rough position; make sure the fan and on/off switch wires
are not trapped between the skirt and inner draft hood
assembly. The on/off switch and fan rheostat should hang
loosely outside the edge of the skirt. The edges of the
rear skirt go outside the rear vertical edges of the stove
sides. There is a rope gasket around the large opening in
the rear skirt, make sure this stays in place. Install the six
(6) sheet metal screws around the perimeter of the large
opening in the rear skirt. (‘A’, Figure 17)
7. Tighten three (3) of the bolts holding the rear skirt to the
stove body; leave the one at the switch box loose. Pop
out the round chrome plug in the switch box. Remove
the rheostat knob and collar from the rheostat assembly.
Pass the rheostat stem through the hole in the switch
box; align the locator pin with the smaller hole. Install the
retaining nut from the outside of the housing, and snug it
up against the switch box. Slide the rheostat knob onto
the stem. (Figure 16)
4. Attach the snapstat bracket, with the snapstat assembly
mounted to it, to the top surface of the fan shield, with a
sheet metal screw. There is a predrilled hole in the shield
for this. The vertical part of the snapstat bracket should
be about 3/16” back from edge “A” in Figure 15.
5. Attach the fan assembly to the rear skirt with two (2) 1/4
- 20 x 3/4” hex bolts, two (2) 1/4-20 nuts and one (1) 1/4”

to the OFF position, the fan will turn on when the
temperature at the snapstat reaches approximately
109°F.
7. Route the rheostat wire assembly to the right between the
inner and outer shroud. Run the wire through the slots at
the bottom right corner of the inner shroud. Some models
have the extension wire assembly attached to the inner
shroud.
8. Refasten the outer shroud to the inner duct assembly.
9. Install the snapstat by loosening the front screw on the
inner side of the duct. (Figure 26) 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.
6. Position the fan assembly so the ducts slide between the
inner and outer shroud. The inner shroud should engage
with the two (2) slots in the ends of the bracket so that
bracket and shroud are interlocked. (Figure 25) Secure
the bracket with the four (4) sheet metal screws provided
in the nish bag.
10. Slide shroud assembly over the sides and fasten the four
(4) screws loosened earlier.
11. The rheostat control switch attaches to the left side of
the valve bracket at the front of the stove. (Figure 27)
• Remove retaining nut from shaft of rheostat. (if
preinstalled)
• Insert the rheostat through the hole in the back of the
left side of the valve bracket, aligning the locator pin
with the smaller hole in that bracket.
• Thread the retaining nut onto the shaft of the rheostat,
tightening with a wrench. Do not overtighten.
• Attach the control knob to the rheostat shaft.
• Use the wire tie to secure the fan and rheostat wire
harnesses together.

Radiance Unvented (RUVS40):
The fan kit includes a ‘snapstat’, a temperature sensing switch
which will be mounted to the blower duct just below the top
plate of the stove. The snapstat automatically turns the fan
on or off at approximately 109°F.
These directions are oriented facing the rear of the stove.
Position the fan under the rear shroud as shown in Figure 28.
1. Open the left side of rear shroud. (Figure 28)
• Remove the round head phillips screws (B) that secure
the shroud to the side of the stove.
• Remove the sheet metal screw (C) that fastens the
switchbox to the rear shroud.
• Remove the two (2) sheet metal screws (D) that secure
the inner and outer shroud together. Let the switch box
and wiring hang loosely.
2. Install the control switch. (Figure 28)
• Run the control switch (E) and wire up along the side
between the inner and outer shrouds and through the
slot at the side.
• Attach the switch to the switch box with the retaining
nut and control knob (F).
• Secure the switch box assembly to the rear shroud
with the single sheet metal screw (C).

so the bracket and shroud are interlocked. (Figure 32)
Secure the bracket with the four (4) sheet metal screws
previously removed.
6. Install snapstat. Looking through the stove front, locate the
snapstat mounting screws on the side of the left air duct
under the top plate. Remove the front screw (‘A’, Figure
33), but only loosen the rear screw. Slip the snapstat under
the rear screw, replace the front screw, and tighten both.
• Detach the extension wire from the retainer clip at the
rear. Connect the female ag connectors (‘B’, Figure
33) of the snapstat extension to the snapstat module.
Conrm that the wires are running to the back and
away from the top of the stove.
4. Resecure the rear shroud panels.
• Reinstall and tighten the two (2) sheet metal screws,
(‘D’, Figure 28), that secure the inner and outer shrouds
together.
• Secure the upper corner of the shroud and switch box
to the side of the stove using a 1/4 - 20 x 1/2” round
head phillips screw, previously removed. (‘B’, Figure
28)
• Disconnect the snapstat module (G) from the leads
inside the snapstat bracket (H).
• Bend open the snapstat bracket (H). Use your ngers or
needle nose pliers to remove the black plastic grommet
from the bracket. Discard the bracket. (Figure 29)
• Insert the grommet and wires into the large hole at the
bottom right corner of the inner shroud. (Figure 30)
• Feed the snapstat wire leads through the grommet into
the stove interior. Connect the two wires to the two (2)
snapstat extension leads attached to the inner shroud.

straight front to back.
7. Route the rheostat wire assembly to the right between the
inner and outer shroud. Run the wire through the slots at
the bottom right corner of the inner shroud.
6. Position the fan assembly so the ducts slide between the
inner and outer shroud. The inner shroud should engage
with the two (2) slots in the ends of the bracket so that
bracket and shroud are interlocked. (Figure 37) Secure
