Today's homes are built more energy efficient than ever. New materials, increased insula-
tion, and new construction methods help reduce heat loss in homes. Home owners weather
strip and caulk around windows and doors to keep the cold air out and the warm air in. During
heating months, home owners want their homes as airtight as possible.
While it is good to make your home energy efficient, your home needs to breathe. Fresh air
must enter your home. All fuel-burning appliances need fresh air for proper combustion and
ventilation.
Exhaust fans, fireboxes, clothes dryers, and fuel-burning appliances draw air from the house
to operate. You must provide adequate fresh air for these appliances. This will insure proper
venting of vented fuel-burning appliances.

The 2020 Vent-free Gas Fireplace will accept the Blower Kit accessory. The kit comes with
the variable blower. The variable blower allows you to select the fan speed you desire. The
blower circulates heated air from the fireplace into the room. Use of the blower is optional.
