IMPORTANT: See Connecting to Gas Supply
in your log set owner’s manual for details on
gas hookup.
You may run the gas line from either side of
the rebox (see Figure 9). Decide which side
you want to run the gas line from.
Note: This is one option for installing shutoff
valve. Check local codes for equipment shut-
off valve location requirements.
Locate the recessed knockout in one of the
rebrick sidewall liners (see Figure 9 on page
12 and Figure 10). Firmly tap the center of
the knockout with a chisel until it is released.
Carefully chisel the rough edges of the hole
you have made to smooth edges. This hole
will line up with the hole in the outer casing.

Note: Appearance of rebox may vary de-
pending on model.
There are two (2) blower accessory options for
use in the vent-free reboxes. Blower acces-
sory models are BK and BK3. Model BK is a
rotary squirrel cage type blower with magnetic
attachment and variable speed control. The
BK3 is a triple fan blower system with an on/
off rocker switch.
On 32" models only, the blower must be
installed by removing the lower face panel
and placing blower into its proper mounting
position. The 36" and 42" models can use
this method or remove the bottom front re-
fractory brick liner and access panel to allow
installation through the rebox bottom (see
Figure 11).
