HEARTH HOME GFK10 Fan Kit Instruction Manual

HEARTH HOME GFK10 Fan Kit

Installation Instructions

The GFK10 Fan Kit has been designed to circulate room air through the appliance to enhance heat output. The fan kit operates on 120VAC, 60 Hz power. This is available through a receptacle in the factory-installed junction box. The junction box is located in the controls compartment of the appliance.
A control module is provided with the fan kit which automatically turns the fan on and off at preset times and is equipped with a variable speed control to provide a quiet forced air flow at the desired speeds.
Check with your local building code agency before you begin installation to ensure compliance with local codes, including the need for permits and follow- up inspections. If you encounter any problems regarding code approvals, or if you need clarification of any of the instructions contained here, contact your Hearth & Home Technologies Inc. dealer.
