Optional blower 

The blower control contains a variable speed switch and a thermal switch. When the stove is 
operating, the thermal switch will turn on at 110° F, allowing the blower to operate. When the stove 
cools to 90° F, the thermal switch turns off the blower in about 40 minutes.  This prevents the 
blower from operating when the stove is not in use.  

The blower not only helps circulate air throughout the room, it also increases the heat output and 
efficiency of the EXCEL-FIRE. 

Blower electrical connection  

Install the blower to the back of the stove using the 4 mounting screws. Than connect the two wires 
to the motors connectors. 

If you wish to make a direct electrical connection to the blower without using the six-foot cord 
supplied, route a 120 volt, 60 Hz electrical power supply line to the same location. Remove the 
power cord and connect the 120V line as per the following procedure: 

• 

Unscrew the speed control unit and pull a few inches away from the junction box  

• 

Unscrew the two marr connectors attached to the cord (P) and the cord ground 

• 

Remove the cord and route the supply line through the same holes 

• 

Make the electrical connection with the same wires the cord was attached to 

• 

Screw the ground wire to the junction box  (G) 

• 

Screw the speed control unit back in place
